Industrias Hergóm

What Industrias Hergóm does

Industrias Hergóm, S.L. is a Spanish manufacturer of cast iron biomass heating products, founded in 1960 in Santander and headquartered in Santa Cruz de Bezana, Cantabria. The company designs, produces, and distributes wood-burning stoves, fireplaces, inserts, cookers, ovens, and outdoor firepits for residential consumers, with secondary distribution to commercial dealers across more than 30 countries in Europe and the Americas. It operates a wholly owned cast iron foundry (Hergom Foundry) that supplies grey iron castings for its own product lines and provides in-house enameling, painting, pickling, and assembly capacity across five manufacturing sites.

The product portfolio is unified by cast iron construction and Ecodesign compliance, with proprietary features including double combustion systems (Eclecsys series), automatic air regulation (Cares series), clean glass technology, and food-safe enamel finishes. Flagship lines such as Arce, Deva 100 CC, and Eclecsys achieve up to 80–83% combustion efficiency, materially reducing wood consumption versus uncertified stoves. Hergóm is a member of the UN Global Compact and holds ISO 9001:2015, ISO 14001:2015, and Integrated Environmental Authorization (AAI/029/2006) certifications covering its foundry operations.

Hergóm generates revenue primarily through hardware sales via a multi-tier distribution model: direct commercial delegations across 10+ Spanish provinces, authorized regional sales representatives covering 20+ additional Spanish territories, and exclusive international distributors in 30+ countries. In North America it operates through the Hearthstone sub-brand, with marketing concentrated on trade show participation (HPBExpo, Progetto Fuoco), a dealer network, and downloadable product catalogs. Pricing is quote-based and not publicly disclosed; complementary revenue comes from a Technical Assistance Service (SAT) network providing installation, maintenance, and spare parts. The company is privately held with no disclosed parent or institutional investors, and has relied on regional and EU grants (FEDER, Government of Cantabria) for equipment modernization, energy efficiency, and workplace safety investments.
