History
Truma was founded in 1949 by Philipp Kreis and began with a gas lamp that the company founder assembled himself in his living room. In 1961, the company developed what it describes as the "first officially recognized caravan heater", which made winter camping possible for the first time. Truma states that it has developed many innovations, including the first liquid gas heater and the first manoeuvring aid for caravans. In 2024, Truma celebrated its 75th anniversary. In 2025, it introduced the CombiNeo, which reduces hot water waiting times to a minimum and delivers hot water at the touch of a button using an instant water heater principle. Truma has also been awarded the TOP JOB seal for the fourth time.
