A Legacy of Innovation
Rooted in the ancient city of Tus, Iran, TGT’s history is deeply intertwined with the principles of efficient heat transfer. The region has a rich heritage of innovative heating systems, most notably exemplified by the ancient bathhouse built in 1615 AD. This architectural marvel showcased advanced heating techniques for its time, underlining the region’s pioneering spirit in thermal engineering.
The Mehdi Qoli Beg bathhouse, located in the historic city of Tus, Iran, is renowned for its cutting-edge underfloor heating system. Constructed in 1615 AD, this ancient bathhouse employed sophisticated heating techniques that were well ahead of its time. The bathhouse’s underfloor heating system, rooted in the principles of efficient heat transfer, is a prime example of the region’s advanced thermal engineering knowledge.
Inspired by this historical legacy, TGT was founded in 2009 with a vision to continue this tradition of innovation. Since its inception, TGT has been at the forefront of developing advanced heat transfer solutions. Key milestones in our journey include:
As the first company in Iran and the Middle East to manufacture heat exchangers in 2001, TGT has been at the forefront of thermal technology. Our commitment to innovation has driven us to develop cutting-edge solutions for a wide range of industries.
TGT holds the distinction of being the first company in Iran and the Middle East to patent wide-plate heat exchanger design and manufacturing. This groundbreaking technology has set new standards in efficiency and performance.
In 2015, TGT made history by introducing a 2500-ton press, the first of its kind in the Middle East. This state-of-the-art equipment allows us to produce high-quality heat exchangers with unmatched precision and efficiency.
With an extensive range of over 350 types of heat exchanger plates, TGT offers customized solutions to meet the unique requirements of every industry. Our commitment to product diversity ensures that you find the perfect heat exchanger for your application.
From start to finish, TGT guarantees the quality of every single part, produced in-house.
TGT is the Middle East’s leading manufacturer of PHEs, setting new standards in both production volume and technology.

Trusted company with an experienced, academic, and expert management
TGT Co. was recognized as the only knowledge-based company in the designing and manufacturing of plate heat exchangers in 2013 with the approval of special government professional groups. TGT Co is the only manufacturing company that designs and manufactures all types of plate heat exchangers in the Middle East region. We have designed and manufactured more than 15 types of knowledge-based products in recent years.
At TGT, innovation is more than just a buzzword; it’s the driving force behind everything we do. Our commitment to research and development is unwavering, as we continually strive to push the boundaries of heat transfer technology. This dedication has led to the development of a wide range of innovative products, from highly efficient plate heat exchangers to specialized pumps and valves. By investing in cutting-edge research and fostering a culture of creativity, TGT is able to anticipate and address the evolving needs of our customers.
Design and manufacturing of large PHEs with high heat transfer capacity and large flowing volumes requires forming of large sheet metals more than 4.5 meters in length. We are the only company in the Middle East capable of producing such large PHE units with the largest and most unique hydraulic press in the region having a tonnage of 25,000 tons. This press can form five sheets simultaneously. In addition, TGT Co. has a wide range of other high-tonnage presses to form PHE sheets.

During the designing and manufacturing of a plate heat exchanger, after numerical analysis and designing a new product (new design of plates and gasket), a prototype is manufactured and the performance is tested under actual operating conditions. TGT has established a one-of-a-kind industrial research-based laboratory for testing the performance and energy efficiency of heat exchangers. TGT’s heat exchanger laboratory is the only heat exchanger performance laboratory in the country to be certified with ISO 17025.
TGT’s specialized polymer and rubber laboratory is established to control the quality parameters and also expand the variety of polymer products in the oil, gas, and petrochemical industries. This laboratory has gained the ISO 17025 certificate by taking advantage of faculty members, expert engineers, and advanced testing devices based on national and international standards including the most practical tests of the polymer and rubber industries. The laboratory has special equipment to determine the life of PHE gaskets in order to improve their lifetime.
Different types of manufacturing processes like machining, welding, cladding required metallography and microscopic examining to achieve the desired properties of alloys and metals such as toughness, hardness, and tensile strength. To ensure the quality of manufactured parts, non-destructive testing is inevitable. For this purpose, the metallography and non-destructive testing (NDT) laboratory has been equipped and can perform different metallography and non-destructive testing services. This laboratory has also received the ISO 17025 certificate because of its specialized expertise and equipment.
