Founded in 1987 as industrial flow control to sell tanker loading and process metering equipment, today IFC Inflow is run by operations director Kiran Shaw and technical director Greg Clarke. Over the years, an initial emphasis on flow meters and loading arms has evolved into the provision of total project solutions, which include design, fabrication and installation services, in addition to a range of standard products direct from stock.
IFC Inflow also developed and pioneered the use of bottom loading skids for road tankers operating in the Authorised Distributor market. The company’s very first unit was built in 1994, since then IFC has expanded into different types of tanker loading, as well as fuel bunkering and tanker safe access. The company, which also works in the food and beverage, powder, pharmaceutical, rail, and marine sectors, has doubled in size over the past 30 years. With a customer base in excess of 2000 clients, which includes many blue-chip companies, IFC’s export business has tripled since 1987.
The oil and petroleum distribution sector is IFC’s largest market, followed closely by chemical and petrochemical distribution.
