A New Location Leads to Record Shipments for Baker Furnace in 2017
Baker Furnace began 2017 poised for growth in a new location with 40,000 sf of manufacturing space. This past year the facility has seen record shipments of custom and standard units in a variety of configurations. Some of these units such as thermal oxidizers and afterburners will be used in the pollution control industry along with waste incineration units used to create waste-to-energy solutions for municipal, commercial, and industrial clientele. Drop bottom furnaces, crucible furnaces, car bottom furnaces, and batch ovens will be used for a variety of applications in the heat treating, foundry, composites, and automotive industries.
As the west coast division of the Thermal Product Solutions (TPS), the Baker Furnace facility creates opportunities to manufacture and deliver equipment to west coast customers for the other TPS brands at a more competitive price due to reduced freight costs. The TPS family shares engineering and production resources to deliver the highest quality products in the industries they serve.
“The move to a larger location for Baker Furnace allowed them to improve their work flow efficiencies and streamline their production floor. With record shipments in 2017, these improvements were essential to Baker Furnace’s ability to fulfill the orders received throughout the year.” Dave Strand, President & CEO
