What Makes Their Product Selection and Design Better

Innovation is the fundamental reason why Paragon has such a wide product selection of better-designed kilns. They take the time to listen to their customers and improve their product features to meet the changing needs of the end users. Their innovation coupled with customer feedback has driven the addition of 10 new product lines within their target markets in the last 5 years. With over 4,000 kiln products to choose from, Paragon has the largest selection in the industry. Because they manufacture small table top kilns for first time buyers to large production kilns for commercial users, they can fill all your kiln product needs.

The drive for continual design improvements has made Paragon an industry standard for kiln design, as many of their ideas have been subsequently used by their competitors. Paragon works closely with its supplier partners to develop enabling technologies for the kiln industry. They use high quality suppliers like Orton Ceramics for all of their digital controller models and developed unique, easy to use interfaces. Every one of their kilns is ergonomically designed with the end user in mind so you get a continually reliable kiln that is easy to use and highly productive. They know your time and materials are valuable so they continually develop new products that ensure consistent and repeatable firings.

They also design custom kilns for customers who have special applications. They have two full-time design engineers and full sheet metal manufacturing capability in the factory for fast design and manufacture of custom kilns. They have manufactured over 900 specialized kilns.
