Radiadores Gómez

What Radiadores Gómez does

Radiadores Gómez is an Antofagasta, Chile-based industrial services company founded in 1957 that designs, supplies, and services heat transfer equipment — primarily radiators and heat exchangers engineered for heavy-duty industrial environments. Since 2003 the company has held exclusive distribution rights in Chile and Latin America for MESABI® heat exchanger technology, a patented tube-and-fin platform developed by U.S.-based L&M Radiator Inc. and widely deployed in mining and other abrasive, high-temperature applications.

The business operates seven nationwide installation and service facilities across Chile and exports to Argentina, Peru, Bolivia, and Brazil. Its customer base spans mining (the primary segment), as well as maritime, food, thermoelectric, and foundry industries. The offering has scaled beyond pure product distribution into integrated engineering, fabrication, monitoring, and on-site maintenance, allowing the company to capture the full lifecycle of an installed heat exchanger rather than only the initial sale. Pricing is quote-based and transaction-by-transaction under B2B contracts; no standard price list or subscription model is disclosed.

The company is family-owned, with founder Jilberto Gómez transitioning leadership to Carmen Gómez Muñoz, and operates with a workforce in the range of 69 to over 200 depending on whether contractors and field staff are included. It is privately held, has no public funding history, and discloses no audited revenue figures.
