Innovative Electric Radiant Heating Solutions Since 1978

Flexel International manufactures and supplies innovative electric radiant heating systems to the global market. Established in 1978, our extensive product range includes:

  • Premium underfloor heating
  • Ceiling heating systems
  • Frost protection cables
  • Mirror demister pads
  • Far infrared heating panels

In 2003, we merged with the Fenix Group. Today, we proudly stand as one of 13 companies under their banner, boasting advanced production facilities in the UK, France, Spain and the Czech Republic. As a result, the Group is now one of the largest, most influential organisations in the large-surface radiant heating industry.

What is Radiant Heat and How Does it Work?

Radiant heating, which is also known as far infrared heating, powers all our heating products. Instead of warming the air, this system directly heats the objects and people in the room. Consequently, this creates a comfortable, even heat throughout the area whilst significantly reducing drafts.

If you are looking for a highly efficient, low-cost way to warm your home, electric underfloor heating is the ideal choice.

Certified Quality and Global Standards

All Flexel electric radiant heating elements and cable systems are fully approved to relevant international standards. This includes EN 60335-2-96 for our ECOFILM elements, and IEC 60800 for ECOFLOOR cable mats and loose cable products.

In the UK, our standard products are available ex-stock via our trusted distributor network. Alternatively, you can order them through national builders' merchants, plumbers' merchants and electrical wholesalers. You can also purchase selected products directly through this website.

Why Choose Flexel for Your Heating Needs?

We pride ourselves on providing an exceptional level of technical support and customer service. Because of this dedication, the industry recognises us as an authoritative brand leader in electric radiant heating for both domestic and commercial applications.

We design and manufacture our innovative systems from our UK-based factory in Glenrothes. Therefore, you can be entirely confident that everything meets the most stringent UK and EU wiring regulations. With over 40 years of manufacturing experience and constant product reviews, we know exactly how to develop a system tailored to your individual needs.

The Power of Far Infrared Technology

At the core of our Far Infrared technology sits a specialised, carbon-loaded resin. Continuous research and development has allowed us to create a thin-film heating element with a proven history of performance and longevity.

Unlike traditional cable or wire-based products, our carbon heating element provides:

  • Perfectly even heat distribution
  • Excellent damage tolerance
  • Significantly higher thermal efficiency
