Kanthal’s greatest strength lies in its deep expertise in industrial electric heating. Since 1931, when Kanthal invented a groundbreaking resistance heating alloy, the company has led the way in heating innovation. Today, its electric heating technology serves nearly every industry with heating needs, offering the broadest product range for electrifying energy-intensive processes.

“Companies all over the world are pursuing carbon neutrality, but it can’t be achieved while they’re still burning fossil fuels in their production,” says Daniel Burton, Business Development Manager and electrification expert at Kanthal. “Electrification may seem like a newfangled trend to some, but Kanthal has had these proven products and solutions in the field for decades.”

Staying ahead of the curve

When a new technological trend emerges, we’re prepared with proven technology and in-house knowledge.

Kanthal’s edge also comes from its long-standing investment in R&D and strong focus on collaboration. Its teams work proactively to anticipate future industrial trends and are eager to explore new possibilities with both customers and research institutions.

“This means we’re often working with solutions and technologies that do not even exist yet, such as carbon-neutral steel,” says Dilip Chandrasekaran, Head of R&D and Technology at Kanthal. “As a result, when a new technological trend emerges, we’re prepared with proven technology and in-house knowledge.”

A trusted electrification partner

This makes Kanthal more than a heating supplier. It’s a global partner that helps industrial producers navigate the transition to electric heating, backed by a worldwide presence, R&D facilities, and teams of local engineers.

From initial design and development to delivery and continued operation, Kanthal works closely with its customers to develop tailor-made heating solutions that match their specific needs.
