Bosch’s Buderus Brand Celebrates 20th Anniversary Serving North American Heating Market
Londonderry, NH – This autumn marks the 20th anniversary of Buderus in the North American heating market. The iconic German heating brand first appeared in the U.S. residential marketplace in the early 1990s and was incorporated in October 1993, op-erating from its North American headquarters in Salem, NH.
Over the succeeding years, the Buderus brand of heating products has gained a loyal following of American and Canadian installing contractors, specifying engineers and building owners who depend on Buderus’ reputation for durable, high quality products of robust design and German precision engineering.
Buderus, the oldest continuously operating hydronic heating company, was founded in 1731 in Laubach Germany. By the 19th century, Buderus stoves were in demand throughout the world and the G115 is among the world’s best selling oil boilers. The company remains a leader in technology innovations for advanced energy efficiency, carbon reduction, engineered materials, and serviceability.
Today Buderus manufactures advanced oil and gas boiler systems, controls, panel radiators and solar thermal collectors. Buderus ‘system integrator” products provide optimal indoor climate.
Bosch Thermotechnology, which acquired Buderus in 2004, is celebrating its Buderus brand over the next 12 months with a variety of special events and contests for Buderus enthusiasts, including a photo contest of Buderus installations, a commemo-rative 20 year anniversary winter jacket promotion, and an open house in its London-derry, New Hampshire headquarters. Details on contests, promotions and events will follow.
