Baxi is Europe's largest heating manufacturer. The family firm of HS Tarm has been making boilers on the same site for 79 years and is now part of the Baxi group.
The small village of Tarm in Denmark is home to a company that warms homes in more than 50 countries around the world. The products of the HS-TARM Company can be found throughout Europe, the Middle East, Australia, Canada, and The United States. This is a company with a long history of keeping people warm.
Rasmus Sorensen, a blacksmith servicing the horse and wagon trade, founded the business in the early 1900's. His son Hans joined him, and expanded the small firm's offerings to include wood stoves and eventually central boilers that could be connected to remote radiators with pipes. The younger Sorensen, whose initials "H.S." were eventually incorporated into the company's name and logo, manufactured his first real boiler in 1927.

The site of the tiny shop has grown over the years, but the dedication to hydronic heating has never varied. Now more than 300 craftspeople work in a modern facility to serve the markets of the world.
The company makes 60% of the home boilers in Denmark. The guiding principles of the Sorensens still guide the company's product development and manufacturing. Quality control and attention to detail are finely honed components of the HS-TARM identity.
The company embraces all facets of machine tool technology that can improve the fit and finish of
HS-Tarm boilers, and matches them with human attitudes that insure that the emphasis is always on quality. A million dollar laser steel cutter has recently been installed to improve the already legendary fit and finish of the company's products, but the finest equipment, they know, is only as good as the people at the control switches. To this end, HS-Tarm has become an ISO 9001 certified company. The ISO (International Standards Organization) audits and assures the highest standards in quality, materials and workmanship.
