FAQ

What else you should know

Our company name refers to the German name of the technology: GVI® means “Gestützte Vakuum-Isolierungen” (supported vacuum insulation). It is “supported” by filling material that is added to the vacuum.

First: the vacuum. This in turn contains fillers – usually in the form of tiny beads – that react to gases such as hydrogen and influence the insulating effect.

As GVI® housings are made to order according to customer specifications, there will always be different series of the product. We are also able to produce these in large quantities thanks to the resources of KÖNIG METALL.
