Our History
Our beginnings still characterise who we are today: a trusted producer of products and solutions to maximise process efficiency, as well as minimise environmental impact.
We began in 1924 as Clyde Blowers, and became rapidly established as a trusted family firm of high reputation, loyally serving an increasing number of customers in the steam locomotive industry by making devices for their boiler cleaning. These devices were, and still are, known as “sootblowers”.
Industrialisation opened an increased potential for boiler cleaning with the marine industry becoming an important market.
Key Projects:
- Installation of sootblowers on the Queen Mary and Queen Elizabeth vessels.

In 1948, the private company of Hans Bergemann Wärmetechnik was registered, signalling a focus on further innovation with boiler cleaning solutions for the utility and industrial power sectors.
Constantly developing and designing products to aid efficiency of power production, e.g. first time using water as cleaning media with wall deslagger in order to clean lignite furnaces. The market for boiler cleaning products expanded and sootblowers were next introduced to fired heaters in the petrochemical industry.
Key Projects:
- Installation of sootblowers in various new RWE lignite power plants like Niederaußem PS and Frimmersdorf PS.

We began our expansion to the USA, whilst also adding the pulp and paper industry to our portfolio. During the same time market and customers in South-East Asia were relying on our products.
Key Projects:
- 1983 – First supply of sootblowers to Korea, 500 MW power plant Samchonpo with Hyundai Heavy Industries
- 1985 – Bayswater with IHI – A contract for sootblowers of almost 13 m, for what can be considered extreme and demanding operation conditions.

International expansion consumed most of the 90’s. 1996 saw the take-over of the Bergemann Group by Clyde Blowers PLC founding what is known today as the Clyde Bergemann Power Group.
The decade also saw the founding of companies in Poland and China, the take-over of Forest in Belgium and the establishment of Clyde Bergemann in Estonia.
Clyde Bergemann was the pioneer in water cleaning of the furnace area of coal-fired power boilers, introducing the legendary Water Cannon. Other new products were introduced to the market, such as the JetBlower for cleaning rotary heaters and a long retractable sootblower model up to 20 m travel.
