NVL

The NVL Group is an independent, privately owned group of renowned Northern German shipyards and related companies with more than 1,500 highly qualified employees. Our experienced teams exceed customer expectations by listening carefully to their ideas, understanding their specific requirements, and delivering high-quality naval and coast guard vessels as well as comprehensive services throughout the entire life cycle of their fleets. We have completed more than 1,000 naval vessels and coast guard vessels since our beginnings in the late 1870s, and have built and repaired ships for both the German Navy and fleets in over 50 countries. Today, construction at our network of shipyards is supplemented by licensed manufacture at customer facilities around the world under technology transfer arrangements. As an independent enterprise, we remain flexible to market changes and operate a dynamic, safe and future-oriented business for our valued customers, employees, partners and the community. We work as one team and have deep roots in shipbuilding. It is part of our DNA – the DNA of shipbuilding.
