From a safety point of view, slippery entrances and frozen equipment can be a nightmare, which is where their high quality products come into play.

They only require a low power input, and can maintain the base temperature within the space to ensure that stock, machinery and vehicles are protected from the cold. They can protect from freezing temperatures and maintain a room temperature of up to 800.

Both the silicone and aluminium heating mats provide an excellent solution to temperature control, and can be used in a variety of different situations. Silicone heating mats can be manufactured in a huge variety of shapes and sizes, offering heating options for unusual and difficult to reach spaces. If you have a storage tank that is liable to freezing, these mats can be attached to the outside to maintain a steady temperature as required.
