Our Company


Since its inception, TEC has been on the forefront in the development of applied heat transfer technology with over 90 issued patents to our credit. Founded in 1961 by engineer and resident inventor Bill Best, our company is comprised of three divisions, TEC Process, TEC Custom Control Panels and TEC Grills.

TEC Process has been known as a world leader in the development of energy-efficient industrial ovens since we first developed and patented our infrared industrial process ovens decades ago. The TEC Turbulator Oven, Radiant Wall Oven and Air Radiant Oven revolutionized paint and drying systems in industries throughout the world by improving the quality of finishes, reducing curing times, saving millions of dollars in energy per year, and decreasing the floor space required for the installation of the equipment.

Our Engineers bring this innovative spirit and creativity to the table when they work with companies to develop the best possible engineered solutions for their specific application. They offer an unmatched level of experience and expertise, and our industrial test lab allows them to test a customer’s products to determine the optimum finishing process prior to designing and manufacturing the equipment.

For over 50 years TEC Process division has been designing and manufacturing custom drying and finishing systems and equipment for a wide range of applications and industries. From automobiles, airplanes and trucks to furniture, plastic, paper and building products, TEC’s process and finishing systems contribute to the quality of some of the world’s most prominent brands. Whether you are looking to install a complete finishing system or interested in improving the performance and efficiency of an existing production line, our technical experience and engineering know-how can help you get the results you need.
