Holland Heater was founded by Mr J. van Dijk (senior) in De Lier in 1976. This was the year that Holland Heater started developing producing hot-air heaters and fans for the horticulture sector in particular, and later also the agricultural sector.
Holland Heater was founded by Mr J. van Dijk (senior) on Vreebruchtlaan in De Lier in 1976. Here, the first gas heaters and fans were produced for the greenhouse horticulture sector. Holland Heater was fully responsible for the complete installation. As well as producing heaters, Holland Heater took care of the complete installation of heaters, gas pipes, and electrics.
Holland Heater moves into new company premises. The expansion of the company means more space is required for all the activities and the new premises on Hondert Margen in De Lier is a suitable location for advancing all aspects of the business.
The Low NOx heater is introduced for greenhouse horticulture. Holland Heater is always very active with the development of new appliances to serve our customers in the best way possible. The Low NOx heater is a good example of this. There was demand from the market for heaters with lower NOx emissions because of environmental guidelines. Holland Heater therefore developed the Low NOx heater. This heater was equipped with special technology, so the NOx emissions were much lower when burning gas. Using the Low NOx heater led to a green label being achieved.
The sale and delivery of various Holland Heater products was made possible through our sales channels in North America this year. You can find the contact details on this site, via the interactive map, where you can find all our "Dealers Worldwide.
After a period of over 20 years, Mr J. van Dijk (senior) hands over the business activities to his son, Jan van Dijk (junior)
With his passion and expertise, he has developed Holland Heater into a leading supplier of heating systems and recirculation fans in horticulture.
“Holland Heaters” has become synonymous with quality at home and abroad.
Jan van Dijk (junior) has the ambition to further extend the network of distributors – and customers – worldwide.
Intelligent product developments have also created opportunities in other markets than just the horticulture sector.
The expansion of Holland Heater continues. Increasing demand for our products means more space is needed. The workplace, goods storage, and offices all require expansion. A larger production area and more storage space enables faster delivery to our customers. As well as good and fast delivery to existing customers, Holland Heater can also can guarantee this same quality to new customers. Completely new company premises are built with a large production hall, enough storage capacity, and offices. The whole business moves all its activities to Leehove 2 in De Lier.
The years of experience that Holland Heater has in horticulture can be used effectively in other markets. From 2007, our company becomes active in the agricultural sector. The existing gas heaters have a new successor. A completely new heater is developed for the agricultural sector, the HHB gas-fired air heater. Innovative gems make this heater extremely suitable for use in the livestock industry. As well as the agricultural sector, these high-quality gas heaters can obviously also be used in horticulture.
The many agricultural and horticultural businesses in Russia can now also have heaters from Holland Heater. Pig farmers, poultry farms, and nurseries can count on optimal heating for their business thanks to the heating appliances from Holland Heater. Our gas-fired air heaters with open combustion are available in Russia immediately in this first year. The indirect-fired heaters and hot water-fired heaters are also introduced to the market here. The high quality of the heaters from Holland Heater is very much appreciated in Russia, which results in increasing sales.
Stricter guidelines set by the government mean poultry farmers (livestock farmers) need to satisfy more requirements in terms of ammonia emissions.
Holland Heater introduces a revolutionary development to the market enabling compliance with these tight regulations. The use of the new indirect-fired heaters developed by Holland Heater means livestock farmers can satisfy the Reductie Uitstoot Ammoniak (RAV – Ammonia Emissions Reductions) guidelines. The heaters also have many benefits that result in the improvement of animal welfare, better air conditions in the barn, increased breast meat production, and drier litter. As well as the vertical design, a horizontal design known as LCSA is also available. The horizontal design, LCSA with horizontal warm air distribution can be used in horticultural and agricultural companies alike.
Innovation and regulations mean that biomass as a fuel and the use of boilers for heating is increasingly popular. Holland Heater responds to this with a completely new development of hot water heaters. A whole series of hot water heaters is introduced to the market. The HHW series of hot water heaters from Holland Heater is extremely suitable for use in agriculture thanks to its robust design, and obviously also satisfies the RAV guidelines. The HHW heaters are characterized by an optimal heat transfer and high yield. Using this heater results in a significantly reduced amount of by-products, such as flue gasses, being released into the environment. As well as the vertical design, a horizontal design is also available, with this variant being applicable for low barns or barns with cages. The horizontal design is also used in horticulture.
