Ravebo

What Ravebo does

Ravebo B.V. is a privately held, family-owned Dutch manufacturer of custom industrial gas cleaning systems and a system integrator of analytical equipment, founded in 1973 and headquartered in Brielle near Rotterdam. Operating across two departments — Proces Equipment (wet gas scrubbers, dust scrubbers, odor scrubbers, vapor recovery systems, quenchers, knock-out drums, and demisters) and Instrumentation / Meettechniek (FTIR, FID, and NDIR gas analyzers, dust analyzers, isokinetic sampling, and gas conditioning) — the company serves industrial manufacturing, shipping and offshore, and environmental / occupational hygiene end markets. Its third offering, Occupational Hygiene (Arbeidshygiene), covers personal sampling pumps, gas detection, IAQ, heat stress, sound, vibration, and airflow measurement, broadening its scope into workplace safety use cases. Ravebo also supports complementary manufacturer brands (Nakakita, Kangrim, Georim, Tanktech, Brannstrom) on a service basis.

The firm's technical stack combines in-house engineering with Autodesk Inventor 3D CAD, Eplan Electric P8 electrical cabinet design, and Siemens S7 PLC control systems programmed via TIA-Portal, plus an industrial 4G router or PN/PN coupler-enabled remote monitoring layer with local or cloud data logging. All fabrication and assembly occur at its Brielle facility, which includes warehouses, calibration rooms, and a stainless steel production hall. The firm holds SCC** 2017/6.0 and ISO 9001:2015 certifications and operates under the trade names Ravebo BV, Didex, and Madeko International. In March 2020 Ravebo exited direct marine operations by transferring its Marine Department to BMI Instruments, retaining its process equipment and instrumentation businesses.

Ravebo generates revenue primarily through custom project-based equipment sales billed on multi-year contracts with project-specific quotations, supplemented by professional services for installation, commissioning, maintenance, calibration, and PLC programming. The commercial model is sales-led, B2B, and direct-to-customer with no third-party distribution channel; pricing is bespoke based on process specifications and scope, and payment terms run roughly 30 days post-invoice. The customer base is concentrated across industrial manufacturing, shipping, and offshore verticals, served through a website-driven inquiry funnel and a small team of technical specialists.
