Industrial Diesel Products

What Industrial Diesel Products does

Industrial Diesel Products Inc. (IDP) is a privately held Canadian corporation headquartered in Mississauga, Ontario, that distributes and integrates diesel engine protection, control, lubrication, and starting subsystems for industrial diesel engine operators in North America and select international markets. The company was founded around 1986–1988 and has operated continuously for several decades, with public website records beginning in 2013. Its product portfolio is organized into four lines: Engine Protection and Control (TITAN engine heaters, TEP3000 TurboSafe turbocharger lubricators, Trombetta DC contactors and electronic controls), Engine Starting (mechanical spring starters, PRQ air/gas and hydraulic starters including the LS and HS series), Engine, Fluid and Air Filtration (Enginaire air pre-cleaners, fuel water separators, Oberg filter crushers, Spinner II oil cleaning centrifuges), and Engine Rebuild and PTOs (Lister-Petter air-cooled engine rebuilds and Twin Disc Power Take-Offs).

The underlying technology is predominantly mechanical and electromechanical rather than digital. IDP's proprietary TEP3000 TurboSafe addresses turbocharger damage during engine start-up via pre-lubrication and has been validated through over 5,000 unit installations at IVECO Motors for fire pump applications; PRQ vane starters use high-tech polymer blades and stainless-steel cylinders to enable lubeless operation; Twin Disc PTOs use composite clutch plates and sealed-for-life pilot bearings rated to 400 hp with a two-year warranty. The company supports OEM cross-reference compatibility for Cummins, Deutz, CAT, John Deere, Detroit Diesel, Genie, Terex, and Skyjack equipment.

IDP makes money through one-time product sales distributed via a direct sales team, a request-for-quote workflow, and a self-service e-commerce storefront at dieselproducts.com (with free shipping on online orders and 1–3 week delivery via postal mail), supplemented by Lister-Petter engine rebuild services priced as professional services with a 90-day warranty. Revenue is not publicly disclosed; the company is privately held with no institutional funding rounds and no management team information in the public record. Headcount is not disclosed, and there are no certifications, awards, or patents recorded in the available data.
