Where it all started

In 1934 Mr. Th. Kropman founds Novum N.V.:
factory of heat technical devices.

1946

Machinefabriek Novum B.V.

Under the umbrella of a renowned installation company, Novum N.V. is transformed into Machinefabriek Novum. Various products needed for heating systems are manufactured such as coal boilers, convectors, vessels and heat exchangers.

1948

Cooperation with Ygnis A.G.
on producing boilers

In cooperation with the Swiss company Ygnis A.G., Novum starts building Ygnis boilers and is at the forefront of the development of the reverse-flame boiler.

1960

Pyrotherm boiler development

In cooperation with Ygnis A.G., a complete new range of boilers, known as Pyrotherm boilers, is being developed. These boilers were first oil-fired but later switched to gas-fired boilers. In the Netherlands alone, more than 4,500 boilers of this type were installed between 1960 and 1990.

Novumax principle for steam boilers

The Novumax principle is being further developed for steam applications. This is mostly implemented as a waste gas adjustment boiler, especially in the health care industry.
