Hagelschuer (legal entity Georg Hagelschuer GmbH & Co. KG) is a family-owned German industrial boiler manufacturer and service provider headquartered in Dülmen with a regional subsidiary in Bickenbach (Rhein-Main). Founded in the early 1990s, the company designs, manufactures, rents, and services industrial steam boilers (0.6-30 t/h), hot water boilers (1-25 MW), hybrid boilers, electric steam generators, and waste heat boilers, alongside modular containerized (GH Container) and precast concrete boiler house solutions. Its technology stack includes H2-ready combustion systems (up to 100% hydrogen), LowNox burners compliant with the 44th BImSchV, ECO economizers achieving 95.5% combustion efficiency, reverse osmosis water treatment, and the GH Focus digital boiler monitoring application (Digitales Kesselbuch).
The company operates a dual capital-and-service business model. Revenue is generated through new system sales (one-time capital purchases of individually engineered stationary and mobile systems), a rental fleet of more than 100 boilers available for short and multi-year contracts, and recurring service revenue from maintenance, repair, TÜV inspections, operator training, and 44th BImSchV compliance advisory.
