About this company

Caltherm was born in 1978 as a local Engineering company, supplying Industrial Heating and Gas Engineering services to the Pottery Industry. With the decline in local industry, Caltherm began to diversify and expand their horizons. By now, having gained considerable experience in the design and manufacture of industrial burner and control systems; Caltherm decided to expand their operations by offering complete industrial ovens. Starting with simple box (Batch) ovens they soon progressed to Conveyor Ovens and then Industrial Furnaces, together with the associated Product Handling Systems. Now, over 40 years later, Caltherm is Britain’s leading Industrial Oven, Dryer and Furnace manufacturer. Here at Caltherm, we take a concept through to a fully operational plant. This is achieved by using highly skilled design engineers using 3D CAD technology, with the product being built by fully trained mechanical and electrical engineering Fabricators and finally pre-commissioned at our factory, prior to despatch. This guarantees complete quality control throughout the manufacturing process.
