WHO ARE WE?

Therser (UK) Ltd was formed in March of 2009. The name THERSER is derived from THERmal SERvices and that is exactly what we do, we provide Thermal Services and Products in all their forms.

Our management team have over 150 years' accumulative experience in a number of successful UK based Kiln and Furnace businesses; in the later years predominantly Drayton Kilns of Stoke on Trent, where all of our management team worked before the closure of Drayton. We are based in Burslem; the mother town of Stoke on Trent where we have our offices and our workshop, right in the middle of the traditional heartland of the UK's ceramic industry.

All of our products and services have been developed and mastered in ceramic and metals industries for nearly 50 years, giving us a huge list of references and the necessary knowledge and experience that comes with that.

In addition to manufacturing new kilns and furnaces for our customers, we have an unrivalled reputation in the Repair, Refurbishment and Specialised Equipment Relocation; and not only for kilns and furnaces, we have relocated complete factories, as well as individual industrial machinery units, totally unrelated to kilns.

"They certainly have the necessary technical and engineering resources to carry out large scale projects and I would have no hesitation in recommending them."

Paul Smith

Churchill

"We are pleased to confirm that we have purchased numerous Kilns from Therser UK and have also recommended to all of our customers that they are our preferred supplier of quality kilns."

Dennis Dixon

Clan Ceramics Consultancy

"The kilns supplied have proven to reliable and repeatable in their firing characteristics and most recently we have used Therser UK to supply a new kiln to one of our licenseesoverseas. This was successfully installed and commissioned and full training in the use ofthe kiln was supplied by Therser."

Therser UK operates globally, not just within the UK. We supply our kilns, furnaces, and related services to various international markets. This includes designing, manufacturing, and installing equipment across different countries, catering to industries worldwide. Our experience and capabilities in handling global projects are supported by tour extensive history in the ceramics and metals industries, which allows us to deliver high-quality thermal solutions and services around the world.

The main difference between a kiln and a furnace relates to their typical usage and the materials they process. Kilns are generally used in the ceramic, glass, and pottery industries, where they process materials that require controlled heating and cooling cycles at relatively lower temperatures. Specific designs like rotary kilns and shuttle kilns cater to continuous or batch processing needs, respectively, often with features to manage the internal atmosphere to influence product characteristics.

On the other hand, furnaces are more commonly used in metalworking and high-temperature chemical processes, such as smelting, forging, and heat treatment of metals. These applications require furnaces to reach much higher temperatures than those typical of kilns. Furnaces are designed for strength and continuous operation, often in harsh industrial environments, where high temperatures are crucial for altering metal properties or carrying out chemical reactions.

Therser UK offers customer test trials. We provide a test centre where customers can conduct trials to ensure that the equipment meets their specific requirements before full-scale production or installation. This allows clients to verify and optimize their processes with the actual equipment in a controlled environment, ensuring that it delivers the desired results and meets their production goals

Therser UK has the capability to convert kilns from natural gas to hydrogen. We are known for our leadership in deploying hydrogen-fueled kiln technology, demonstrating our commitment to sustainable manufacturing practices. This involves updating the combustion systems, controls, and other necessary components to handle hydrogen fuel efficiently and safely . This type of conversion supports industries looking to reduce their carbon footprint and adapt to more environmentally friendly energy sources.
