Waterbased high-temperature coatings for BERTRAMS

Committed to sustainability and customer well‑being, BERTRAMS GmbH & Co KG, a long‑standing Austrian expert in flue and stove‑pipe production, became the first European producer to finish its pipes with a water‑based, high‑temperature‑resistant coating that emits no smoke or odor during initial heating – an essential feature for modern living‑room stoves.

This breakthrough was made possible through close collaboration with Weilburger, whose senotherm® UHT Hydro (also known as Non‑Smoker®) revolutionized the industry as the first water‑based, smoke‑ and odor‑free high‑temperature coating. The partnership required precision and joint development, resulting in a tailored coating system that BERTRAMS has used exclusively since 2012.

KANSAI HELIOS and Weilburger continue to push boundaries in high‑temperature coatings, combining decades of expertise with forward‑looking innovation. The water‑based senotherm® UHT Hydro withstands continuous heat up to 600°C, cures at room temperature, offers exceptional scratch resistance, and sets new environmental standards. Once considered impossible, this coating now enhances stoves across Europe with smoother, harder, and more durable surfaces—without smoke or odor.
