ISOLITE GmbH develops and manufactures customized high-temperature insulation and sealing systems designed for thermal and acoustic management. The company's origins trace back to 1878 with the founding of 'Fabrik chemisch-technischer Produkte von Grünzweig & Hartmann oHG' by chemical engineer Dr. Carl Grünzweig and businessman Paul Hartmann. A specialized team for high-temperature insulation was formed in 1978, which evolved into a separate company, G+H ISOLITE GmbH, in 1997. Following management buy-outs in 2006 and 2010, the automotive division was established as ISOLITE Automotive GmbH. In September 2022, the CERTINA Group, a family equity investor, acquired ISOLITE from the previous owner, Showa Denko.
The firm serves major global industries, including automotive, aerospace, mechanical engineering, and turbine construction. Its business model focuses on providing tailor-made solutions that operate in temperatures ranging from 400°C to 1,600°C. The product portfolio includes insulation for exhaust aftertreatment components like manifolds and turbochargers, firewalls, and acoustic absorbers, which aim to lower surface temperatures, increase exhaust energy, and reduce CO2 and NOx emissions. ISOLITE's clients are leading international manufacturers and OEMs. The company operates on a global scale with approximately 500 employees across locations in Germany, the Czech Republic, the USA, Mexico, South Korea, South Africa, and Serbia.
Since the acquisition by CERTINA, the company has been led by Managing Partners Dr. Stefan Brungs and Michael Knoll. Dr. Brungs previously held roles at The Boston Consulting Group and the Volkswagen Group, including serving as a Board Member for Bentley and Bugatti. Michael Knoll has a long history with the company as the global head of development. The acquisition by CERTINA aims to guide ISOLITE towards stable and sustainable growth.
