Thermopads

What Thermopads does

Thermopads Pvt. Ltd. is a Hyderabad, India-based manufacturer of electrical surface heating systems serving domestic, commercial, and industrial end-markets across approximately 60 countries. The company operates three manufacturing units in Telangana — two in Jeedimetla and one in Polepally-Jadcherla — totaling over 300,000 sqft of infrastructure and employing around 500 people, with a 90% export ratio and wholly-owned sales subsidiaries in the UK (Thermopads UK Limited, London) and Germany (under Thermopads NL B.V., Assamstadt). Its product portfolio spans underfloor and laminate heating mats, snow melting cables and mats, freeze protection and de-icing cables, refrigeration heating products, mirror and foil heaters, and an industrial line anchored by the Thermotrace brand of constant-watt and self-regulating heat tracers, Thermo Mineral Insulated Cables (TMIC) rated up to 600°C, and pre-insulated tubing bundles, heating jackets, drum/IBC heaters, hopper heaters, and heating blankets.

Underlying technology centres on self-regulating heating cables using a semi-conductive heating core that automatically modulates heat output based on ambient temperature, alongside constant-watt parallel-circuit tracers, mineral-insulated cables with compacted magnesium oxide insulation, and specialty industrial heaters for hazardous-area (Ex) applications. The company has built a strong regulatory position through certifications including ISO 9001/14001/45001, IECEx, SIRA-ATEX (Ex), UL 515 and 1673, CSA, VDE, EAC, CE, and IEEE 515/515.1, enabling specification into oil & gas, petrochemical, power, chemical, metallurgical, cement, pharmaceutical, and food industrial projects.

Commercially, Thermopads runs a direct B2B/B2G enterprise sales motion with custom quote-based pricing, regional sales offices supporting European customers, and an inquiry-driven website funnel; revenue is generated through one-time hardware sales with no disclosed recurring or software-based monetization, and 15% of power consumption is sourced from an in-house 100-300 kW solar installation. The company is privately held under founding-family ownership (NK Ghurka and Uma Ghurka) with no institutional capital, no public listing, and no disclosed M&A activity.
