Calor in Germany
This is us
Founded as a family business in 1991, hard work and passion have been at the core of everything we do from the very beginning – and that hasn’t changed to this day. With a fantastic team and strong partners by our side, we continue to grow day by day.
Long-term, trust-based relationships with our customers are particularly important to us. Personal exchange, individual solutions, and reliable service are a given for us. Throughout it all, quality has always remained our top priority.
Our membership in the Todaytec Europe group, which began in February 2025, marks an exciting new chapter in our company history, and we look forward with great motivation to upcoming projects and challenges.
