Experienced and reliable partner.

Continuous innovation

Turvac's journey is marked by continuous innovation, a dedication to quality, and a passion for pushing the boundaries of vacuum insulation. When you choose Turvac, you are partnering with a proven leader in VIP manufacturing. 

The story began with the manufacturing and development of vacuum insulation panels as one of programs of company Turna, responding to the market's need for high-performance insulation solutions. In 2008, fiberglass core panels were introduced for refrigerators, followed by silica-based panels, suitable for refrigeration and construction industry in 2010. Turna became one of ten proud founding members of VIPA International, global voice of the VIP industry, promoting quality and raising awareness about it's potential, in August 2014 and obtained the National certificate for construction in 2015.  

Turvac emerged as a spin-off from the vacuum insulation panel production program of the parent company Turna in 2016, backed with new production hall and with significant technological upgrade.
