Still Running Strong: How International Thermal Systems (ITS) Keeps LTG Systems Performing Decades Later

Founded in Germany in 1926, LTG Technologies established a legacy of engineering advanced thermal processing equipment for the metal packaging industry. Known for precision, reliability, and innovation, LTG systems helped manufacturers improve productivity while maintaining consistent, high-quality results.

The company expanded globally over the decades, including a significant move into the United States in 1990 that strengthened both its sales reach and engineering capabilities. Strategic acquisitions—Industrial Heat Enterprises International (1998) and Oven Systems Incorporated (1999)—further broadened LTG’s expertise, adding industrial cleaning solutions and expanding its presence in battery and metal packaging applications.

In 2010, International Thermal Systems (ITS) acquired LTG, along with IHEI and OSI, uniting decades of thermal processing innovation under one organization. Today, ITS continues to support this legacy by providing comprehensive service for all LTG equipment in operation. This includes OEM replacement parts, field service and troubleshooting, system retrofits, and performance upgrades—ensuring customers can maintain efficiency, extend equipment life, and keep operations running at peak performance.

For facilities operating LTG systems, ITS remains a trusted partner for ongoing support, modernization, and long-term reliability.  Learn more here: https://www.internationalthermalsystems.com/ltg-technologies
