The future standard
Electrifying high-temperature industrial heat
We build ultra-compact electric air heaters to strengthen industrial resilience and eliminate gas dependency
Ultra-compact gas heater replacements
Our electric air heater delivers green heat with exceptional power density and minimal space requirements - surpassing commercially available solutions. We replace gas burners one by one enabling gradual electrification aligned with local grid capacity, while maintaining precise temperature control and rapid response times.
Cost-effective
stable and predictable operating costs, independent from volatile fossil fuel markets | up to 60% lower energy demand compared to conventional gas-fired furnaces
Modular
multi-stage temperature design provides the right heater for each temperature range - reducing cost, improving efficiency, and ensuring performance exactly where it’s needed
Sustainable
using renewable electricity as input, either off-grid, PPA or auction, leads to immediate reduction of carbon emissions without major production downtime | a future-proof solution that supports compliance with EU and global decarbonization policies, safeguarding competitiveness in global supply chains
Precise
highly accurate temperature control, preventing local overheating inside the furnace | ensuring uniform heat transfer, minimizes inefficiencies, and enables stable, predictable process conditions
Flexible
units from 50 kW to multi-MW can be deployed step by step, matching renewable availability and grid capacity | combinable with in-house built Thermal Energy Storages to balance renewable energy fluctuations or optimize usage of volatile electricity prices | enabling no more dependency on gas supply
Safe
not pressurized and safe | free of hazardous chemicals | no risk of fires or explosions
