New start-up company Energy Carbon has won the exclusive UK contract to supply advanced infrared heating technology from Germany. Developed by experts from the University of Stuttgart, Far-Infrared is described as a robust, long-lasting and ultra-thin fleece that can be plastered into a ceiling or placed behind plasterboard to provide homes with low-cost, zone controlled, infrared heating.
Energy Carbon founder and director Nick Gander explains: “For years, we have been hugely passionate about the potential for infrared and Far-Infrared, thanks to years of intensive research and development, as the answer to energy efficient heating solutions for homes, both now and in the future.
“The retrofit market is going to have a massive role to play in making homes more energy efficient as the country looks to hit carbon emissions targets, and Energy Carbon is going to play a significant part in that.”
The company is also looking to serve the retrofit market by setting up a distribution network across the UK, and has recently welcomed its first distributor on board – West Midlands-based Jigsaw Heating Solutions.
