What HEXONIC does

HEXONIC (legal entity Hexonic Sp. z o.o.) is a Polish industrial heat exchanger manufacturer founded in 1990 and headquartered in Nowy Dwór Gdański, operating with 101-250 employees. The company designs, manufactures, and modernizes a comprehensive portfolio spanning brazed plate, plate & frame (gasketed), shell & tube, shell & coil, plate & shell (SHIELD), and custom industrial heat exchangers, along with E-LINE condensing economizers and dry coolers. Its core technology is vacuum-brazed corrugated stainless steel plate construction, with proprietary extensions such as the L ULTRA high-pressure brazed plate rated to 140 bar for transcritical CO2 systems, DC dual-circuit brazed plate, JAD/JAD X corrugated shell-and-tube, and SafePLATE double-wall configurations for potable water isolation. Manufacturing is supported by PED, ASME, UL, EAC, ISO 9001, ISO 3834-2, TEMA, and PZH certifications.

Revenue is generated primarily through direct sales of engineered-to-order heat exchange equipment to industrial customers, HVAC contractors, OEMs, and engineering firms. Pricing is quote-based and not publicly disclosed, reflecting customization across materials (stainless steel, titanium, duplex, Hastelloy), plate counts (10 to 400+), connection types, and operating envelopes (-195°C to +230°C, up to 300+ bar). The company augments direct sales with technical consultancy and a self-serve sizing tool (CAIRO selection software) and publishes region-specific sales terms for USA and multiple Central/Eastern European markets. End markets served include district heating & HVAC, refrigeration & heat pumps (including CO2/R744), power generation & energy, food & beverage, industrial oil cooling, water/wastewater, and data center liquid cooling (immersion, CDU, free cooling). The company claims to supply most heating companies in Poland and to deliver dozens of large-scale projects per year, including into power plants and combined heat and power plants.
