Our ambition
We want what everyone wants: satisfied customers in long-term relationships, continuous growth and secure jobs for our employees, whose qualifications and reliability we owe the quality of our products to.
But what we also want: to be enthusiastic about our customers' cause. We seek for tasks that may be uncomfortable, but which help us to move forward.
 | In the chemical industry, our products ensure the required process temperature in laboratories and plants in a wide variety of vessels, reactors and pipes. |
| In environmental technology, heating hoses transport sample gases into analytical instruments without condensation. |
| In the food industry, heated tubes keep chocolate or honey fluid on their way from a container to the place of processing. |
| In the automotive industry we temper tools for PU skins of instrument panels or we ensure the correct processing temperature of adhesives and paints. |
| In the semiconductor industry, we heat extensive pipelines in factories and various components in the machines installed there to prevent the process gases from crystallising. |
| In vacuum technology, our specially adapted heating elements help to achieve ultra-high vacuum under the keyword "bake out" - worldwide for example in many particle accelerators. |
