About us
Tradition since 1951
Following privatization, we seamlessly continued the tradition of Teplotechna Brno, which was founded in 1951. We supply heating units, refractory linings, and related steel structures
Thanks to more than half a century of experience in the market, we have extensive expertise in the supply of industrial furnaces and related services—both in the domestic and international markets.
We currently have 100 full-time employees. Our production facility and warehouse are located in Brno-Horní Heršpice. Our design and engineering center is in Olomouc.
We supply individual parts as well as complete solutions
Our operations can be broken down into several points:
- Turnkey production line implementation,
- modernization of components,
- technical support – audits, hot work, furnace temperature control, etc.
We help our partners not only with the construction of new furnaces, but also with the modernization of existing ones. We perform hot repairs on furnaces and supply spare parts for them. Our purpose is to enable our partners to achieve maximum production at minimum cost while minimizing their environmental impact.
The environment comes first
Our primary goal is to supply our customers with top-of-the-line eco-friendly furnaces or furnace components, backed by reliable support. We are committed to ensuring that the subsequent operation of the furnaces has the least possible impact on the environment.
History of PKI Teplotechna Brno
On October 29, 1951, the state-owned enterprise Teplotechna was established, which oversaw thermal engineering workshops and companies that built factory chimneys.
The company focuses on providing a vast amount of heat treatment work for postwar construction projects in the steel industry, the energy sector, and other industrial sectors.
Expansion of domestic and international supply—power plant boilers, drying equipment, cement plants, petrochemicals.
We have completed our 200th shipment. Over the course of the company’s 24-year history, we have shipped our products to 18 countries around the world.
We are building a modern cement production line in Prachovice, a new facility with two 190-meter-long tunnel kilns in Svitavy, and glass melting furnaces in Kyjov
We are manufacturing a 130-meter-long high-temperature tunnel kiln for firing refractory materials at a temperature of 1,650 °C in Velké Opatovice.
The Brno branch of Teplotechna, n. p., became an independent entity. Teplotechna Brno, s. p., was established, and P K I s. r. o. was founded. We have our first customer on the German market, for whom we are building a brick factory in collaboration with Keller.
P K I s.r.o. acquired Teplotechna Brno, s. p., as part of the privatization process. The company P K I – Teplotechna Brno spol. s. r. o. is formed.
In Žiar nad Hronom, we are building 60 electric aluminum melting furnaces. In Litomyšl, we are carrying out single-stage fiber drawing under a Japanese license.
We acquired the ceramics and engineering division of Přerovské strojírny, a. s.—we have the know-how of experts in project management.
With the acquisition of Sklopece Olomouc, we have expanded our operations to include the design of glass furnaces. PKI Teplotechna Olomouc spol. s. r. o. is being established. We are expanding into the North American market. We are building a brick-making tunnel kiln and kiln cars for a Canadian customer near Toronto.
Delivery of a 135-meter-long tunnel kiln for Wienerberger in the Czech Republic.
We are expanding our operations into the French and Russian markets. We are opening a branch office in Moscow. We supply furnaces for glass fiber production and four tunnel kilns.
We manufacture an MgO-C furnace for tempering magnesite for the Magnezit Group. We also supply four shaft furnaces to the same company.
