Partnership
The success of our company to date is primarily the result of successful collaborations. On the one hand, it is always our goal to build and maintain long-term, trusting, 'genuine' relationships with our customers. On the other hand, we represent numerous globally renowned manufacturers in the maritime industry as direct dealers and certified partners. In summary, this always means: a maximum of quality and substance.
Quality
For us, quality is not just a claim. Quality is our decisive driving force. At SDT, quality manifests itself in the competence and experience of our employees, as well as in the exclusive use of original parts. We operate independently of brands. We cooperate with a wide range of manufacturers and are therefore able to offer you exactly the solution that best suits your specific requirements from a multitude of options. SDT stands for 'German Engineering': reliable, precise, efficient, valuable. And with a long service life.
Customization
SDT implements special solutions and custom-made products according to customer requirements. In other words: We build the unit exactly to optimally meet your specific requirements and needs. To do this, a lot of experience is needed – and we have it: We know the operational and application areas of our customers and have a sure instinct for implementation. We clarify all individual details with our clients in advance as part of a targeted project briefing.
Experience and Passion
SDT has been involved in the construction and support of units for over 50 years. To date, we maintain over 5,000 units. Our service teams are valued by our customers for their responsiveness and flexibility, for their expertise, and for their exceptional commitment. 'Our mission. Your power.' – the SDT motto is not a platitude, but a guiding principle: The world of aggregates and engines is our home; the highest quality for our customers is our standard.
Lifecycle Approach
During planning and construction, we always keep the entire lifecycle of the unit in mind. With this approach, we reduce the risk of failure to a minimum and increase efficiency – for the entire life of an engine. We plan, design, and manufacture customized units for a wide variety of applications. And if the customer wishes, we support the systems with flexible maintenance and repair services around the globe.
Certification
One can simply claim to be good, or one can leave it to external specialists to assess this. We do the latter: The high quality of our services and products in the areas of workboats, military, yachts, and the offshore industry is certified according to ISO 9001 and ISO 14001 by DNV GL.
Network
Our customers benefit from our maritime network of various companies in the maritime industry and the offshore industry. As a member of the Maritime Cluster Northern Germany, Deutsche Yachten Superyacht Germany, and the VMI (Verband der Motoreninstandsetzungsbetriebe e.V.), we have access to the latest insights and developments in the market.
