Wanson (India) became Thermax around 1977. Thermomatic boiler was 3rd in the series of 3 boilers designed by IDC. The 10feet dia. boiler was for export to Canada. The management was keen on contemporary look for the Boiler. The boiler was fabricated. With functional products of this kind it seemed industrial design contribution would not be significant. Off course, there was control box and the panel which can transform the product. Boiler had unwieldy connections. It lacked a visual flow and functional definition as a product. Each element like, body and base were seen as independent units to perform its engineering task. Body was cylindrical optimized for volume and ease of fabrication. Base was a series of flanges., with little visual weight to support a massive cylindrical body.
