WHO WE ARE

Hotwork Heat Treatment & Specialized Services (HTS), a proud member of the Hotwork International Group, is a global leader in heat treatment, combustion services, and industrial thermal solutions. With a heritage dating back to 1962, HTS has earned a reputation as a trusted provider for industries such as glass manufacturing, aluminum production, copper processing, and the oil & gas sector.

At HTS, we specialize in thermal treatment solutions that enhance weld integrity, minimize thermal stress, and extend the operational life of pressure vessels, storage tanks, pipelines, and industrial towers. Our expert engineering team leverages advanced analytical tools, including thermal simulations, wind and weight load calculations, and Zick analysis for horizontal vessel support optimization.

Since joining the Hotwork International Group in 2022, HTS has expanded its global footprint and technical capabilities. With a network of over 600 specialized technicians and engineers, we provide heat treatment services in more than 65 countries, ensuring a 48-hour global response time and consistent service excellence.

HTS began its journey with the establishment of Heat Treatment and Specialized Services Portugal, offering robust coverage across Southern Europe. In 2025, we further expanded with the launch of HTS Netherlands, strategically enhancing our responsiveness and presence throughout Western and Northern Europe.

WHAT WE DO

Combustion Icon

Post Weld Heat Treatment

Ensuring the strength and durability of welded components, our Post Weld Heat Treatment (PWHT) service relieves residual stress, improves material properties, and prevents cracking in welded structures. This process enhances the longevity and performance of industrial equipment.
