Graphene-based underfloor heating innovation offers potential relief amid planned Government Winter Fuel policy

In light of the recent Government announcement regarding the planned changes to the winter fuel policy, which will see a reduction in support for pensioners, Haydale is working with strategic partner Staircraft, which is owned by Travis Perkins plc, to develop a solution to help mitigate rising energy costs. Our newly developed graphene-based underfloor heating system, has just completed initial successful trials, offering a revolutionary way for households to significantly reduce their heating bills.

With energy prices on the rise and Government support being scaled back, our innovative heating technology promises to ease the burden on household finances.
Graphene’s exceptional heat conductivity allows for a faster, more efficient distribution of warmth, using considerably less energy than traditional heating systems., Independent trials have demonstrated that our low voltage underfloor heating system can reduce energy consumption, leading to major cost savings— of up to 70% vs traditional underfloor heat systems using main power and copper wires – exactly what’s needed as heating bills increase.

“Our mission has always been to provide practical, affordable solutions to everyday problems, and the timing of this innovation couldn’t be more important,” said Keith Broadbent, CEO of Haydale. “At a time when many pensioners and vulnerable households are facing higher costs with less support, we believe our graphene heating technology can provide real relief.”

Dr Luke Whale, Technical Director at Staircraft Group said “Our initial trials on graphene underfloor heating panels bonded to our pre-cut chipboard flooring panels are demonstrating extremely efficient room heating can be achieved at much lower running costs than traditional underfloor heating methods. We will now be discussing its potential with house builders, in the hope that site trials can be undertaken as a next step.”

This cutting-edge system not only lowers heating expenses but also promotes sustainability by reducing energy consumption, making it an eco-friendly option for households concerned about their carbon footprint.

Haydale is committed to bringing this affordable and efficient technology to the market, helping consumers – especially pensioners – stay warm without breaking the bank.
