Flexible Drum Heating for Industrial Fluids, Pastes and Solids

Drum heaters are essential when working with materials that become too thick, unstable or unpumpable at low temperatures. At Kuhlmann Electro-Heat, we offer a complete range of drum heating solutions to ensure optimal viscosity, easy handling and reduced material waste – across a wide variety of industries.

Our range includes full-surface heating jackets, silicone heating bands, base heaters, and insulation lids, all designed to fit standard drum sizes – and adaptable to non-standard dimensions upon request. Whether you’re heating 200L drums, smaller formats, or oversized containers, we have a solution that delivers uniform and controlled heat.

Our drum heaters are ideal for oils, resins, waxes, adhesives, greases, chemicals, and foodstuffs, and are compatible with both steel and plastic (HDPE) drums. Each product is made with high-quality materials for durability and safety – including chemical-resistant outer layers, efficient insulation, and digital thermostats for precise temperature regulation.

In addition to our standard models, we offer ATEX-certified drum heaters for use in hazardous environments (Zones 1 & 2 / 21 & 22), ensuring compliance with international safety standards for flammable gases or dust. These solutions maintain reliable heating performance without compromising safety.

Installation is quick and tool-free, and many of our drum heaters can be applied by a single person. Their portable and lightweight design makes them perfect for use in production facilities, warehouses, mobile setups, and outdoor environments where temperature-sensitive materials must be kept within specific limits.

For applications requiring special configurations, our team can also design and manufacture custom drum heaters tailored to your specific drum dimensions, material type, temperature needs, or process integration.

With decades of experience in industrial surface heating, Kuhlmann Electro-Heat delivers drum heating solutions that improve process reliability, minimise downtime, and protect the quality of your valuable materials.
