Hornos Industriales Pujol

What Hornos Industriales Pujol does

Hornos Industriales Pujol S.A. is a fourth-generation, family-owned Spanish industrial equipment manufacturer founded in 1911 and integrated within Pujol Group, headquartered in Sant Feliu del Llobregat (Barcelona). The company designs and manufactures industrial thermal-processing machinery for the flat-glass industry, with a product portfolio centered on laminating ovens (LAM-PRO, LAM-PRO TOP, and the flagship Pujol 100 PVB+), tempering furnaces (TEMPER FLEX with the proprietary K-Panel thermal-efficiency system), chemical tempering systems (TQ System), Heat Soak Test ovens (HST-L, HST-V), industrial washing machines, and complete automatic, semi-automatic, and manual production lines. Underlying technology is rooted in proprietary thermal-process engineering — including patented innovations such as Safeglass (a breakage-retention system), a transparent-sinks oven, and low-temperature industrial paint-stripping ovens — augmented by the Pujol e-Connect IoT platform that enables remote monitoring, production control, and teleassistance from Pujol technicians. The company claims to serve glass manufacturers in over 100 countries.

The company's business model is enterprise capital-equipment sales with a custom-quotation pricing model determined by specifications, dimensions, chambers, and power requirements, and multi-year contract billing cadence tied to installation and commissioning cycles. Go-to-market is a direct enterprise field-sales motion, supported by a 12-engineer technical processes and systems department that provides customers with process guidance, production curves, installation, training, and ongoing technical support. Distribution is driven primarily by active participation in the major international glass-industry trade shows (Glass-Tech Poland, Vitrum, China Glass, GlassBuild America, Glass South America, Eurasia Glass Fair), supplemented by a multilingual website (ES/EN/FR/RU), email newsletter, and industry-directory presence (Flat Glass World Directory 2026). Customer segments are concentrated in glass processors and manufacturers (primary) and the architectural/construction glass industry (secondary), with named customers spanning Italy, Canada, and the United States across laminated glass, safety glass, hurricane-resistant glass, and HST applications.

Revenue is generated predominantly through one-time hardware sales of industrial ovens and associated lines, complemented by installation, training, and technical-support services. Pricing is not publicly disclosed, all deals are quoted bespoke, and no public revenue, funding rounds, or institutional investor backing are reported. The company is privately held under the legal form S.A. (Sociedad Anónima) and is part of the broader Pujol Group, which includes the strategic partner Evalam (EVA interlayer producer) — forming an integrated equipment-plus-consumables ecosystem for architectural and decorative laminated glass.
