İmbat

What İmbat does

İmbat is a privately held Turkish HVAC manufacturer founded in 1991, headquartered in Kemalpaşa, İzmir, operating from a 10,000 m² automated production facility. The company designs and manufactures high-performance HVAC systems across four core product categories: rooftop/package units (Perseus, KO.SG), close control precision air conditioning (Orion, GRUS, COLUMBA, CORVUS, SAGITTARIUS), industrial and commercial chillers (screw and scroll platforms from 95 kW to 1,756 kW), and aviation ground-support cooling units (SAGITTA series). Core technologies include asymmetric scroll compressors, EC plug fans, microchannel condensers, free cooling integration, Master-Slave synchronization logic, and R454B low-GWP refrigerants; Perseus rooftop performance reaches SEER 4.73–5.79 and SCOP 3.33–4.01. İmbat is Turkey's first and only continuously Eurovent-certified rooftop manufacturer (since 2015) and operates an officially recognized R&D Center with TÜBİTAK and university partnerships.

İmbat serves commercial, industrial, and mission-critical environments including data centers, logistics warehouses, retail and shopping malls, beverage production, healthcare, sports venues, airports, and aircraft ground support. Named enterprise customers include Magnum Kazakhstan, Coca-Cola İçecek, Aport Shopping Mall, TÜBİTAK ULAKBİM, Torpedo Ice Arena, and CHIO Aachen. The business model is hardware sales of B2B custom-engineered HVAC equipment, priced project-by-project, with revenue generated through a hybrid of direct enterprise sales (separate domestic and export divisions) and a 600+ distributor network reaching 60+ countries across five continents. The company maintains dedicated after-sales services and pursues international growth via major HVAC exhibitions (MCE Milan, Chillventa, ISH Frankfurt, ISK-Sodex Istanbul) and industry associations (ISKID, ASHRAE, KazLAACE).

Ownership is founder-led and independent, co-founded by Kerim and Nuriye Gümrükcüler (the latter serving as General Manager), with no disclosed institutional or PE/VC backing. Strategic priorities in 2024–2025 include lean manufacturing, digital transformation (ERP and robotics), R454B refrigerant transition, expansion of the data center cooling portfolio (including In-Row solutions), and geographic diversification into European, South American, and Central Asian markets. The 35-year operating history, Eurovent certification, official R&D Center status, and recent capacity expansion suggest a mid-sized, technically credible player executing a structured internationalization and product premiumization strategy.
