Infrared for the Chemical Industry
Efficient, precise, and clean — infrared technology provides optimal thermal processes for numerous applications in the chemical industry.
In chemical production, many processes depend on accurate temperature control, homogeneous heat distribution, and rapid response times. Infrared systems meet these requirements perfectly, making them ideal for drying coatings, curing resins, heating reaction vessels, and activating chemical compounds.
In many processes within the chemical industry, high conveyor speeds and the handling of fine materials, often in powder form, are key factors that make infrared technology particularly advantageous. Compared to conventional heating methods, an infrared system can not only reduce process cycle times but also prevent the dispersion of powder materials and minimize the risk of contamination or germ intrusion during production.
Our custom-engineered infrared solutions ensure energy efficiency, process stability, and reproducible results, supporting both laboratory-scale setups and large-scale industrial systems.
Advantages of Infrared in the Chemical Industry
Our infrared systems offer numerous benefits for heating and drying processes in chemical production:
- No dispersion of powder materials, ensuring stable process conditions
- Flexible operation thanks to fast response times
- Precise temperature control for sensitive materials and compounds
- Homogeneous temperature distribution, even across wide web widths
- Reduced contamination risk by eliminating hot air as a heating medium
- Feasibility of vacuum-based processes for specialized applications

Our Products for the Chemical Industry
Drying, Curing, or Polymerization
Infrared systems offer significant potential for drying and thermal processing applications in the chemical industry.
One key area of application is the drying of powdered or granular materials, where sensitive process conditions are often a major challenge. Materials must not be displaced from the conveyor, and many processes must comply with strict hygiene standards.
Infrared systems provide an excellent solution, as their contactless heating principle allows for complete separation from the process chamber, ensuring clean, controlled, and efficient drying conditions.
Use Under Vacuum or in Liquids
Infrared emitters can be specifically designed for operation under vacuum or for direct use in liquids, enabling process applications that are achievable with only a few other technologies.
Typical areas of application include drying processes under vacuum conditions, the disinfection of liquids, and the heating of fluids for further processing. These specialized infrared solutions open up new possibilities for controlled, contactless, and efficient thermal treatment in sensitive chemical and industrial environments.
