HIACC

What HIACC does

HIACC Engineering & Services Pvt. Ltd. is a Chennai-headquartered Indian manufacturer founded in 2013 that designs, builds, and services environmental test chambers, vibration test systems, and custom climatic simulation chambers. The company's core products are built around industrial control platforms including WATLOW controllers and include standardized models sourced via an exclusive 10-year partnership with Chinese principal DONGLING Technologies as well as in-house custom-engineered units fabricated at its Chennai manufacturing facility. It serves 100+ customers across automotive, electronics, battery and energy storage, aerospace, pharmaceutical, semiconductor, telecom, solar, biotech, medical devices, and packaging, with vertical-specific extensions such as Li-ion battery testing chambers co-developed with DONGLING.

The business operates three reinforcing revenue streams: (i) outright sales of new environmental and vibration test chambers (both DONGLING-branded and custom-built), (ii) multi-brand service, calibration, validation, and refurbishment across its installed base, and (iii) NABL-accredited (ISO/IEC 17025:2017) third-party testing at its Bangalore Customer Experience and Environmental Test Center, which opened in July 2024. A rental/leasing program for chambers adds a recurring-revenue layer and broadens access for R&D labs and smaller manufacturers. The Bangalore facility also functions as a regional sales and demonstration hub, complementing the Chennai HQ.

The company is bootstrapped, with no external funding disclosed, and has grown through reinvested earnings since inception. Its competitive positioning rests on the exclusive DONGLING channel relationship in India, NABL accreditation, and the ability to service heterogeneous multi-brand chamber fleets — capabilities that have produced a 12-year operating track record and a customer base spread across more than ten regulated and unregulated verticals.
