Raising Material Temperature for Production and Processing
Explore drum heaters and IBC heaters to maximise productivity
Raising Temperature to Ease Processing
Many materials must reach a specified temperature before they can enter the next stage of production. Milk fats, coconut oil, waxes and soap bases may cool or solidify during storage and need to be reheated before batching, blending, filling or further processing.
SBH Solutions supplies insulated heating jackets for drums and IBCs. These jackets bring stored materials up to the required process temperature. We can help you select the best drum heating solution or IBC heating solution based on the material, container size, starting and target temperatures, and the time available for heating.
Our industrial heating jackets can be used to raise the processing temperature of:
- Milk fats
- Syrups and sugars
- Oils, including coconut oil, palm oil and lard
- Waxes, including paraffin wax and beeswax
- Bases for ointments and creams
- Soap bases and glycerine
- Resins and adhesives
- Specialty chemicals

- If you need to prevent an already-heated material from cooling, see our Preventing Product Cooling solutions.
Popular Drum and IBC Heating Jackets for Process Heating
Our industrial heating blanket products come in various container sizes, from 25L to 205L drums and 1000L IBCs, with different power levels, including the Hi-Power and Hi-Heat ranges. These jacket sizes and power outputs can be matched to the container and required heating rate..
Since 2008, we have partnered with leading global industrial heating jacket manufacturer LMK Thermosafe to offer an extensive range across Australia and New Zealand. LMK Thermosafe’s industrial heating jackets have been used successfully across a variety of industries, supporting safer and more consistent heating throughout production processes.
We are experts in the design and manufacture of custom-made industrial heating jackets to fit specific containers, tanks or vessels, including applications where standard sizes are not suitable.
