Who we've worked with

“I would highly recommend X-Heat with their infrared heaters. This technology is a win-win for a business like us because not only are we saving a cost on energy bills but it’s helping us be more green.”

Will Manners, Director of A-Tech Fabrications

“X-Heat have collaborated with us and partnered with us to make sure we picked the right heating system for the right process at the right time. The level of support, innovation and general expertise that we’ve had from them has been absolutely invaluable. Because of the flexibility and the support we’ve got from X-Heat, we can’t recommend them highly enough. Absolutely tremendous."

Bob James, Technical Collaboration Lead, MBI

"We have no regrets! I didn't even need training. Definitely worth the investment. I've now made back the money spent on energy running the old heaters!"

Horatio Z

“I would strongly recommend X-Heat’s units and services to anyone else, it’s been a huge advantage and actually saved money as well, so that’s a bonus.”

Barry Dunn, Project Manager, Yaskawa UK
