Maritime Montering enhances onboard comfort through underfloor heating solutions via exclusive cooperation with LK Systems

Maritime Montering, a global leader in turnkey ship accommodation, proudly announces its entry into the marine heating segment through a strategic and exclusive partnership with LK Systems. This important milestone further expands the company’s comprehensive portfolio of ship interior solutions – now including innovative underfloor heating systems designed to enhance onboard comfort, energy efficiency, and system safety.

From interior design and furniture production to full accommodation outfitting, Maritime Montering is known for delivering high quality comfort to life at sea. With the addition of advanced ship heating systems, the Group strengthens its position as a complete solutions partner for shipbuilders worldwide.

The newly introduced solutions include:
• Underfloor water heating
• Tap water and radiator heating systems
• Wet unit integration
• External deck heating options
• Complete engineering and design integration

Unlike retrofitted systems, these heating solutions are planned from the outset, integrated directly into the vessel’s design and construction. The offering includes a comprehensive engineering package, full incorporation into building material drawings, and safety-enhanced designs such as pipe-in-pipe technology, watertight cabinets, and “collision engineering” for maximum durability at sea.

All products are developed and manufactured at LK Systems’ advanced production facilities, drawing on over 40 years of expertise in hydronic heating. The system enables even heat distribution, supports lower supply temperatures, and significantly reduces energy use and operational costs – with an estimated savings of 3.5 million kWh over a 10-year period.

“We believe onboard heating is an integral part of crew comfort, and we want to be involved from the earliest stages of vessel design,” said Steffan Birkeland, Business Development Manager at Maritime Montering Group. “Our goal was to identify a solution that is smart, user-friendly, cost-efficient, and environmentally responsible. We’re proud to launch this exclusive partnership with LK Systems. Together, we will bring comfort to a new level and add meaningful value to the market.”

“We see this cooperation with Maritime Montering as an important development for the industry,” said Thomas Strand, CEO at LK Systems. “With more than 40 years of experience in waterborne floor heating, we bring the technical know-how; Maritime Montering brings deep maritime expertise. It’s a perfect synergy.”

This landmark collaboration is being officially launched at Nor-Shipping 2025, where Maritime Montering and LK Systems present the solutions together for the first time at Stand D01-40. Visitors are able to explore the full range of marine heating technologies and speak with the experts behind the partnership.
