As a family-owned and led company, we are firm believers in the economic and environmental value of reusing waste and recovering waste energy – values that went unrecognised for a long time. The integration of the Oschatz units in Germany, the Czech Republic, Slovakia and China into Christof Industries has created significant advantages for operators of both traditional production facilities and industrial plants – especially waste-to-energy and waste-to-value plants – thanks to the union of pioneering technologies, which have been tried and tested over the past 160 years, with our extensive experience in the construction of industrial plants and in the provision of industrial services.
Our 360° portfolio makes Zero Waste Concepts for Cities a reality.

Oschatz is a synonym for the highest degree of professionalism, both in our relations with our customers and in our internal processes and structures. For us, simply standing still is not an option; more than anything else, we want to reach one goal:
continual improvement – for a successful future.

Monique van den Boogaard, Managing Director
We have a significant technological edge over the competition in the development of waste heat recovery systems. We are also a pioneer in methods for making use of waste products and in the circular economy. The combination of technical perfection and a passion for innovation are the hallmarks of everything we do. In keeping with our motto:
Excellence through Tradition and Innovation
„
Wen Jiang, Sales Director Chemical & Environmental Industry
Many of our waste heat recovery systems are counted among the leading technologies that the market has to offer. In addition to the technical perfection of our products and our decades of experience, there is one characteristic in particular that our experts demonstrate, which has allowed us to achieve this position:
The willingness to question the status quo and to leave the beaten track.
„
Michael Marcius, Sales Director Power Plants
What distinguishes us from other providers is our holistic approach to the requirements of every project. Because you can only take that kind of approach if you can truly provide everything – from boiler system design through to after-sales services – in-house. This is how we achieve not just technological and economic efficiency, but completely new ways of seeing things.
Because we always keep sight of the big picture for every process and every project – which means we develop solutions that look to the future.
„
Josip Kasalo, Head of Sales – Iron and Steel Metallurgy
The difference between a technician and a true expert is experience. After 170 years of company history and having realised more than 200 cooling systems for the iron and steel industry, we can safely say that we are experts in this field. Our expertise provides the foundations for the plants that we erect all over the globe
– with the greatest possible levels of availability, operational safety, and efficiency.
„
Lynn Tenbuß-Küppers, Senior Sales Engineer – Chemical Industry
Having successfully implemented more than 150 projects all over the globe, Oschatz leads the market for process gas coolers for nitric acid production. There are two significant factors to our success: technical perfection and a very human quality – the ability to listen. Intensive two-way communication with our customers has made us what we are today.
Because exceptional results can only be achieved through cooperation.
„
Heinz Wienen, Sales Director
The demands our clients place on us are always growing. That is a good thing. Because there are three important qualities that define Oschatz today: perfection derived from decades of experience, a creative approach to technology, and the desire to best serve of customers’ interests by thinking to the future. The result: individual, tailor-made solutions instead of standard technologies. The benefit for our customers:
Greater levels of efficiency, profitability and longevity for their plants and components.
