Radiant Panels Explained: What is Radiant Heating?

When it comes to heating spaces efficiently and comfortably, radiant heating is one of the most effective solutions available.

SPC wall-mounted radiant panels projects - Ashmolean Museum

Unlike traditional systems that heat the air, radiant heating works by warming the surfaces, objects, and people directly. The result is uniform, comfortable warmth with minimal energy waste, making it ideal for a wide range of environments, from schools and offices to healthcare spaces, warehouses, and industrial buildings.

Why Choose Radiant Panels?

At SPC, we manufacture our Thermatile TEN-TWELVE radiant panels here in the UK. These radiant panels offer a high-quality, energy-efficient heating solution with flexible installation options to suit your building design.

Radiant panels also align perfectly with modern low-temperature hot water (LTHW) systems, including heat pumps. As the industry moves towards decarbonisation and net-zero targets, it’s more important than ever to select heating technologies that support renewable energy integration.

Unlike traditional convection systems that rely on higher flow temperatures, radiant panels operate efficiently at lower temperatures, helping to reduce energy consumption and carbon emissions, future-proofing your building against tightening sustainability regulations.

Key Benefits of Radiant Panels:

  • Quick heat-up times – Rapidly bring spaces up to temperature
  • Uniform comfort – No cold spots or drafts
  • Virtually maintenance-free – No moving parts or complex components
  • Improved air quality – Minimal air movement reduces the spread of dust and allergens
  • Low-temperature compatibility – Perfect for heat pumps and renewable heating systems
  • Flexible installation – Available in ceiling grid, free-hanging, wall-mounted, or plasterboard options

A Future-Proof Heating Solution

Radiant panels are an excellent choice for decarbonisation projects and energy-efficient building designs. Whether you’re refurbishing an existing space or planning a new development, SPC can help you specify the right solution, with short lead times and UK manufacturing support.

Celebrating Adrian Blyth’s Retirement After 23 Years at SPC

Last week, we bid farewell to Adrian Blyth, our long-serving Financial Director, who has retired after an incredible 23 years with SPC.

Adrian first joined the business in October 2002 as a Management Accountant. Over the years, he became an integral part of the finance team and a respected leader within the company. Known for his financial insight, sense of humour, and sincere care for his colleagues, Adrian brought both professionalism and personality to everything he did.

When asked what he enjoyed most about his time here, Adrian often said it was the people, echoed by many of his colleagues who’ve worked closely with him over the years.

Outside of work, Adrian is just as accomplished. He once ran the London Marathon in an impressive 2 hours and 54 minutes and was a proud member of the Leicester Road Hogs running club in the 1990s. In more recent years, he’s taken on a new role: passionate supporter (and investor!) in his grandson’s golfing ambitions.

At his farewell presentation, our Sales Director, Jeremy, shared a few fun retirement sayings that brought plenty of laughs:

  • “You’re retired, not expired”
  • “Say hi to the pension, bye to the tension”
  • “Behind every retired man is a wife who wishes he’d go back to work!”

Adrian, on behalf of everyone at SPC – thank you for your dedication, commitment, and everything you’ve done for the company. We wish you a very happy and well-deserved retirement. You’ve certainly earned your licence to chill!


Beat the Heat with Radiant Cooling – iTwenty Eight Industrial Radiant Panels from SPC

Keeping large industrial spaces cool in summer can be a real challenge, but it doesn’t always mean switching on the air conditioning... Think Industrial Radiant Panels.

Our iTwenty Eight Industrial Radiant Panels provide an energy-efficient alternative, offering radiant cooling when paired with a suitable system like a reverse-cycle heat pump. Whether you’re working in a warehouse, factory, or distribution centre, these panels help create a more comfortable environment, without noisy fans or draughts.

Why Choose Radiant Cooling?

Radiant cooling works by absorbing heat from the space through cooler surface temperatures, so people and objects feel cooler, even if the air itself isn’t being actively chilled. It’s ideal for high-ceilinged, open spaces where traditional air conditioning isn’t always practical or efficient.

Why Choose iTwenty Eight Radiant Panels?

Our iTwenty Eight Radiant Panels are specifically designed with industrial spaces in mind. Here’s why they are the ideal choice for your cooling needs:

  • High Performance: Deliver superior cooling performance, making them perfect for large industrial areas.
  • Durable: Engineered to withstand harsh industrial environments, ensuring long-lasting performance.
  • Easy Installation: Designed for straightforward installation, reducing downtime and labour costs.

Key Features:

  • Dual purpose panels – radiant heating and cooling
  • Quiet & efficient – no forced air movement
  • Modular sizes – panels up to 6m wide, runs up to 70m
  • Lightweight & durable – aluminium fascia, large steel waterways
  • Perfect for: warehouses, production lines, storage units, and large open-plan industrial settings

Quick Tips: Staying Cool in Industrial Workspaces

Even with radiant systems, keeping a warehouse or factory cool in the summer takes more than one solution. Here are a few extra ideas:

  • Improve ventilation – Use high-volume, low-speed (HVLS) fans to keep air circulating
  • Limit heat sources – Turn off unused machinery and lights
  • Add shade – Use blinds or reflective films on roof lights and windows
  • Hydration stations – Make sure cold water is available throughout the day
  • Schedule smart – Move heat-intensive tasks to cooler hours when possible
