Watlow Electric Manufacturing Company is a global leader in industrial thermal systems, delivering advanced heating technologies, temperature sensing, power control, and increasingly, integrated digital and data-driven solutions.
Headquartered in the US, the company serves a broad range of industries, including food and beverage, life sciences, semiconductor, energy, and industrial manufacturing.
Over its history, Watlow has evolved from a component-focused manufacturer into a provider of complete thermal systems. This transformation has been accelerated by the integration of Eurotherm, a specialist in process automation, precision control, and high-integrity data management. Together, Watlow and Eurotherm offer a unified portfolio that spans the full thermal value chain, from heat generation and measurement to control, automation, and enterprise-level data systems.
Watlow’s core expertise lies in the design and manufacture of electric heaters, temperature sensors, and power controllers. These technologies are fundamental to a wide range of thermal processes in food production, including cooking, sterilisation, drying, and pasteurisation.
What differentiates the company is its ability to integrate these components into complete, engineered systems. By combining hardware with advanced control platforms and software, Watlow enables manufacturers to optimise process performance, improve energy efficiency, and maintain consistent product quality. This system-level approach reduces complexity for customers while delivering measurable operational benefits.
The integration of Eurotherm has significantly expanded Watlow’s capabilities, particularly in regulated industries. Eurotherm brings deep expertise in precision process control and data integrity, enabling Watlow to address the growing demand for digitalisation and compliance in the food and beverage sector.
Eurotherm’s technologies add advanced automation, visualisation, and data management layers to Watlow’s thermal systems. This includes high-accuracy digital recorders, distributed control systems, and software platforms designed to capture, analyse, and securely store process data. The result is a comprehensive solution that not only controls thermal processes but also ensures full traceability and audit readiness.
A key application area for Watlow’s combined offering is dairy processing, particularly milk pasteurisation. Pasteurisation is a safety-critical process governed by strict regulations such as the Grade “A” Pasteurized Milk Ordinance (PMO), which requires precise control and recording of temperature and flow conditions.
Its integrated approach, linking heating technologies, process control, and high-integrity data, enables manufacturers to achieve higher levels of efficiency, compliance, and operational transparency. As the industry continues to evolve toward digital, data-driven production, Watlow is well placed to support customers in delivering safe, consistent, and sustainable food products at scale.
Eurotherm™ provides a range of products, digitally engineered solutions and services globally. From design and build through to operations and maintenance, our solutions support process and thermal efficiency.
The food and beverage industry is undergoing a significant transformation driven by the need for greater efficiency, regulatory compliance, and sustainability. Central to this shift is the way manufacturers generate and manage heat for critical processes such as drying, sterilisation and cooking.
The recording and reporting of data is necessary to provide evidence that critical process parameters have been met in many food and beverage processes, but it can also provide additional benefits in terms of efficiency.
The Eurotherm™ EPower™ power controller is designed to meet these demands across a wide range of thermal processing applications, from industrial ovens and dryers to fryers, boilers, pasteurisation systems, and electrically heated process lines.
As food and beverage manufacturers modernise thermal processing operations and move toward greater automation and electrification, flexible process control has become essential for maintaining product quality, improving efficiency, and simplifying compliance.
In the food and beverage industry, precision heating is essential for ensuring product quality, efficiency, and consistency. FIREBAR™ flat tubular heaters from Watlow offer a modern solution that enhances thermal performance across a wide range of foodservice equipment, including fryers, ovens, and griddles.
EPM™ Data and THERMALWATCH™ combine secure data management, advanced thermal analytics and remote monitoring to turn temperature, power and equipment data into actionable insight, helping you improve yield, energy efficiency and product quality while supporting HACCP and other compliance needs.
Eurotherm™ EPower is equipped with predictive load management and optimises energy usage, delivering precision, cost-effectiveness, and repeatable product quality.
Watlow Electrified Duct Heaters deliver reliable performance in demanding environments. With systems supporting hundreds of kilowatts, these heaters can be used for a variety of applications. They are flexible, consistent, and energy efficient.
The Watlow® F4T™ Temperature and Process Controller utilises electrification to generate and control heat while simplifying processes through a customisable, easy-to-use interface.
