SPARTHERM INNOVATION
Innovative ideas and high-quality implementation formed the basis of the company Spartherm, founded in 1986, which flourished rapidly and began to expand. The inventions were a revolution for the entire fireplace technology industry. More and more companies showed interest in the new developments that were launched into series production in the town of Gerden at the workshop on Selhofer Weg. In 1996, the location on Maschweg with a 1800 m² administrative area and 8000 m² production area was established. Since the company founder started production in Poland immediately after the end of the Cold War and had the right contacts, he was the first businessman in the region to set up his own plant in Friedeberg (Strzelce Krajeńskie).
In the following years, several product innovations and increased turnover led to the continued expansion of production and storage facilities and the integration of some competitors into the company. This is how the Spartherm group of companies has grown from its beginnings to become a synonym for innovative and high-quality fireplace inserts, stoves, compact units, tiled stoves, fireplace cassettes, outdoor products, complete combustion chambers and small storage stoves. At its headquarters in Melle in Lower Saxony, the company is one of the region's largest employers. In the space of three decades, what was originally a locksmith shop with two employees has grown into an international company with over 1,000 employees. Of the approximately 50,000 units produced each year, 35 percent are exported – and the number is growing. Spartherm products are almost exclusively available through qualified specialist dealers.
