Built for Production. Designed to Scale.
The PRIMO 15000 is an industrial stainless steel melting system engineered for plant-scale production. It gives manufacturers reliable, consistent performance without the inefficiencies of traditional water-jacket systems.
Why PRIMO Systems Outperform Traditional Melters:
- 2–3X Faster Melting than conventional systems
- Up to 50% Lower Energy Costs
- Waterless Design — no water maintenance, no corrosion, less downtime
- Even Heat Distribution — controlled heating for consistent production
- Digitally Controlled Temperature for repeatable processing
Provides significantly more usable capacity than typical “15000 lb class” tanks, reducing refill frequency and increasing daily output.
Industrial Construction:
- High-grade 304 stainless steel with #4 finish
- Double-walled insulated tank
- Rounded interior for easy cleaning
- Permanent heating system designed for long service life
Designed For:
Wax • Candles • Cosmetics • Food • Adhesives • Industrial Materials
Included:
Stainless steel lid, valve configuration as selected, and heated spout/valve system for improved dispensing.
Planning to Grow?
Most customers choose a larger system than they currently need. PRIMO melters can run at partial capacity, allowing you to scale production without replacing equipment later.
In many cases, purchasing one larger unit costs less than buying multiple smaller systems over time.
Trusted by manufacturers nationwide and worldwide for reliable industrial thermal processing equipment.

Capacity note:
15,000 lb (6,804 kg) is an approximate wax capacity. Actual material weight
varies by density, formulation, operating level and required headspace.
Physical vessel capacity is approximately 1,957 gallons (7,412 L).
Final electrical service, outlet configuration, high-temperature options and
application-specific accessories should match the selected product configuration.
Production Planning
How the PRIMO 15000 Fits Into Production
The PRIMO 15000 is positioned for plant-scale / centralized thermal processing. Use the vessel capacity as one part of selection; daily output also depends on batch size, refill frequency, starting temperature, recovery target and downstream demand.

Production Role
Use the PRIMO 15000 as Part of the Complete Production Flow
Where This Size Fits
Choose this size around plant-scale throughput, storage strategy, material transfer, facility power and future production expansion.
Downstream Integration
Designed for plant-scale integration with centralized pumping, heated transfer, filtration, storage and downstream production systems.
System Integration
Build Beyond the Melting Tank
Mix & Condition
Add agitation or material-conditioning features when the formulation or production process requires them.
Filter & Transfer
Review filtration, pumps, heated hoses, valves and transfer components around the material and required flow rate.
Dispense & Fill
Supply semi-automatic or automated filling equipment from the heated PRIMO vessel as production grows.

Continue Building the Production System
Once the melter size is selected, the next step is deciding how material will be mixed,
filtered, transferred, dispensed or filled. Use the equipment guides and support resources
