Company history
HELIOS GmbH is a family-run company which specialises in the development, production and global sales of equipment and machines for material handling, in particular in the field of plastics, starting from the production at raw materials to compounding up to processing.
The product spectrum ranges from industrial emptying stations for large containers to pneumatic conveying and dedusting devices up to plastic granulate dryers, designed as top-mounted, stand-alone or portion dryers.
HELIOS products are used in a wide range of industries and applications, such as in the plastic, automobile and electronics industry as well as medicine, chemistry and process technology.
Since 1982 HELIOS has been setting new industry standards under the motto "We invented it" in the material handling sector.
The first portion dryer for plastic granulate, the first emptying system from above for bulk materials in bulk containers and the first small-quantity plastic granulate dryer with a database and plastic-specific, flow-dependent dryer settings as well as granulate deduster with compressed-air jet all come from HELIOS. In the meantime, more than 10,000 dryers, more than 5,000 emptying systems and more than 1,000 dedusters have been sold in more than 50 countries.
