The team at Preheat Engineering has returned from a fantastic few days last week at the Executive Hire Show at the CBS Arena in Coventry. It was a great show from start to finish and we thoroughly enjoyed every moment.
One of the highlights was catching up with many of our loyal existing customers and long standing suppliers, as well as meeting new contacts from across the plant hire, construction and industrial sectors. The Executive Hire Show continues to be one of the leading UK events for the hire industry, and it provided an excellent platform to showcase our specialist heating solutions.We were genuinely surprised by how many visitors were not aware of the full scope of what we manufacture. While Preheat Engineering has long been recognised for producing the trusted Peregrine range of engine heaters, the business has evolved significantly in recent years.

Preheat has been manufacturing Peregrine products since 1954 and has built a strong reputation for reliable coolant heaters and fuel heaters designed to improve cold start performance and protect valuable equipment. However, since Simon Gristwood purchased the company, the product range has expanded considerably.




Today, alongside our Peregrine heaters, we also manufacture the Falcon heater range. We have developed innovative heating technology for DEF and AdBlue storage tank heaters, introduced a new solid state thermostat, and can now provide specialist heating solutions for fire pump applications.
We also design and manufacture tank heaters, build heaters to bespoke customer specifications, and offer heater refurbishment services to extend the life of existing units. These tailored heating solutions accommodate Genset, Marine, fire safety and bulk fuel storage applications across the UK.




Empowering critical infrastructure with dependable engine and tank heating systems that underpin backup power in any climate, our products are engineered to deliver reliability, protection and performance when it matters most.
Our stand attracted strong interest throughout the show, and we were proud to display our coolant heaters, fuel heaters and tank heating systems, highlighting the quality, engineering and build standards that define Preheat Engineering.
We would like to thank the organisers of the Executive Hire Show for delivering another well run and successful event. We would also like to thank Aspect Exhibitions for manufacturing and building our stand. We were delighted with the finished result and particularly pleased with our new brand colour and updated artwork, which gave the stand a fresh and confident presence compared to previous years.
