Specializing in wood heating, Hargassner marks its 40th year in business. In 2023 the company expanded its presence in North America by establishing a new headquarters in Toronto, enhancing local warehousing, and bringing on board regional staff. This strategic move underscores Hargassner’s dedication to fulfilling the specific needs of its North American clientele — particularly those in Canadian and US joineries and sawmills.
“Estimating heating costs has become increasingly challenging. Many sawmills and joineries are using their own wood chips or residual wood for heating. Therefore, they need sophisticated heating technology to use the wood efficiently. Hargassner offers a reliable solution that is particularly suitable for those needs”,
says Stefan Kopp, CEO of Hargassner North America
What makes biomass the smart choice?
Hargassner boilers for joineries and sawmills run on biomass – this can be wood chips, residual wood, pellets or well known logs. Wood chips are produced from untreated residual wood sourced from local forests and the sawmill industry — materials that might otherwise go unused. Using your own wood not only reduces costs compared to burning oil or gas, but also bolsters the local economy and promotes sustainable, carbon-neutral practices by recycling residual wood.
Custom biomass heating solutions for joineries and sawmills
Hargassner provides customized biomass boiler systems tailored to meet a wide range of needs — from residential homes to expansive installations for farms, hotels, and industrial settings like joineries and sawmills. Importantly, every boiler in the lineup is engineered to offer lower heating costs compared to traditional oil and gas systems.
The company’s offerings range from 23 kW (78,500 BTU/h) to 330 kW (1,125,000 BTU/h), with the option to configure multiple boilers in a cascade setup, achieving a combined capacity of up to 2 MW (6,700,000 BTU/h).
Economical and User-Friendly
Given the rising energy costs and stringent environmental regulations, this advanced heating system is designed for maximum efficiency, often paying for itself within just a few years — or even sooner.
Hargassner ensures minimal maintenance needs and extended durability across its entire range of equipment. With remote access via phone or tablet, customers can conveniently adjust their biomass boiler settings or monitor its status in real-time. The user interface is straightforward and easy to navigate.
North American Certification
With 40 years of expertise in constructing biomass boilers and over 185,000 satisfied customers globally, Hargassner is a true leader in the industry. Notably, the company’s biomass boiler systems are fully certified and approved by the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) and the Canadian Standards Association (CSA).
