About K&T Begleitheizungsgesellschaft
K&T Begleitheizungsgesellschaft GmbH is a system provider for industrial heat and safety systems based in Hofheim am Taunus. The company plans, installs and maintains electric heat tracing for pipes, tanks, vessels and special constructions – from thermal calculation and design through standards-compliant installation by qualified electricians to DGUV-compliant documentation. A second pillar is sensor-based leak detection systems with point, line and cable sensors, which are integrated into existing PLC, BMS and building management systems via Modbus, BACnet or OPC UA. The portfolio is complemented by infrared heaters for residential, office and commercial spaces as well as halls. Customers come from the chemical, petrochemical, energy and utility sectors, data centers, food and pharma, mechanical engineering, and infrastructure and building services. As an nVent Raychem system partner, the company uses heating cables in compliance with standards and offers around-the-clock emergency support. Founded in 2019, the company combines over 20 years of industry experience of its managing director with certified, operational personnel according to SCC Document 017.
