ETS designs and constructs systems around the practical demands of each process, site, local standard and operating team.
World-class thermal engineering solutions
Built for Tomorrow. Perfected Over Decades.
Welcome to Engineered Thermal Systems, a South African furnace design and manufacturing company specialising in tailored industrial furnaces and related process plants.
Our work ranges from modest equipment rebuilds and technology upgrades to large-scale turnkey projects.
How ETS delivers
From initial assessments to full-scale installations, every project is optimised for peak efficiency, safety, and performance.
Whether upgrading existing technology or embarking on a new venture, ETS provides the innovation, reliability and accountable delivery needed to succeed.
Single-source turnkey delivery
Clients engage ETS as a single-source contractor for primary equipment, ancillary systems and overall project coordination, bringing clients and subcontractors together from concept to completion.
Site-specific furnace engineering
Drawing on extensive project experience throughout South Africa, ETS customises furnace designs around site conditions, local standards, regulations and each client's operating requirements.
Local fabrication and construction network
Established relationships with local fabricators and construction contractors support component supply, labour and installation close to the project site.
Global expertise, localised service
Strategic partnerships in the UK, Italy, India and beyond combine specialist global expertise with practical, localised service.

Engineered assurance
Our design, manufacture, testing and commissioning is done in accordance with SANS13577 (Industrial Furnaces and Associated Processing Equipment), and we adhere to SANS347 (Categorisation and Conformity Assessment Criteria for all Pressure Equipment). SANS13577 is a modified adoption replacing SANS329 soonest and the SAGA equipment mandate updated to include other gas and fuel types. Adherence to these Standards is required by SASOL and SAGA (South African Gas Association) of which Engineered Thermal Systems is a proud member.
