Continuous Wood Drying Kilns

BEP Engineering now has the capability to bring you Brunner Hildebrand Lumber Drying Kilns!

BEP Engineering has more than 43 years of experience working with professionals from the sawmill, re-man, plywood, planer mill, veneer, and shake-producing industries. Now the company has found a partner to offer the best products in timber drying. BEP Engineering Services is proud to expand its product offerings with all new lumber drying kilns and control systems from Hildebrand-Brunner, a leader in the kiln manufacturing industry.

With this partnership we are now able to offer you Standard Conventional Dry Kilns and the brand new Continuous Flow Dry Kiln.

Hildebrand-Brunner products meet International Plant Protection Convention requirements, meaning they fulfill all sanitary and phytosanitary measures as set by the IPPC. The company manufactures a wide range of kilns, including heat treatment kilns, continuous kilns, and specialized kilns for unique materials.

Hildebrand-Brunner has also created a new energy-saving system known as Hildebrand HTT. This package kiln innovation manages air flow to maintain wood quality, all while encouraging moisture evaporation. Hildebrand HTT ensures uniform final moisture distribution and a reduction in electrical energy consumption.

All of the kilns made by Hildebrand-Brunner are composed of aluminum or stainless steel, meaning they have high levels of insulation. In combination with climate, heat, and venting systems, they all boast energy-efficient drying times.

Customers who want to purchase a Hildebrand-Brunner kiln through BEP Engineering will enjoy the ability to customize their product according to the heating mediums they desire. Some of the kilns available include Conventional Kilns, High Temperature Kilns, and Progressive Kilns.
