WAUKESHA, WI — Horizon Performance Technologies LLC (Horizon) recently announced the acquisition of all intellectual property of Perceptive Industries Inc. (Perceptive). Since 2002, Perceptive has been supplying industrial ovens to the metal fastener, coatings and thermal processing industries throughout the United States, as well as delivering equipment globally to internationally based metal coaters.

This allows Horizon to continue to serve Perceptive’s customer, provide equipment service and spare parts through our online portal, and will allow us to adapt our patented technology to the Perceptive equipment. Perceptive customers will benefit from energy saving designs to be implemented on any new equipment purchases and allows us to expand our geographic presence, product and service offerings, and customer base. We look forward to working with Perceptive’s customer base and providing our first-rate service.”
