How to heat a workstation
Localised heating of workstations is a need that arises in many different situations and areas. For example, it may not be cost effective to heat to comfort level entire large warehouses, industrial sheds and workshops, or it might be technically difficult due to the openings to the outside.
Another example is people who have to work outdoors, in gazebos or mobile structures used as stands for trade fairs or as sales stands in markets, gardens and open spaces of all kinds.
The most efficient and practical solutions in these cases are, without a doubt, electric heating platforms, which Art Eco increasingly offers to its customers in many sectors with excellent results, as long as they are in sheltered environments so that they are not damaged by adverse weather conditions. For example, the platform must absolutely not come into contact with water.
These products are powered using 230 V and 50 Hz domestic voltage and therefore do not require industrial-type voltage meters. In addition, the structure with non-slip painted chequered plate finish of Art Eco electric heating platforms allows them to support a weight of up to 150 kg per square metre, making them suitable for all kinds of professional situations.
The platform only has a height of 15 mm and is controlled by a potentiometer, which allows the intensity of the heat and electrical absorption to be adjusted. The installation of our electric heating platforms does not require any water system installation or masonry work: simply place onto any type of floor and connect to the power supply.
Art Eco offers two electric heating platform models: 95×95 cm square and 95×195 cm rectangular. The first one produces 300 W and weighs 15 kg, while the latter has a power output of 680 W and weighs 28.5 kg. They can be combined to meet any space requirement.
From warehouses to industrial sheds, from workshops to trade fairs, from gazebos to markets, the platforms meet every need with a simple connection to the mains supply
The advantages of electric radiant heating
The physical operating principle of Art Eco heating platforms is the transmission of heat by radiation, also exploited, due to its great efficiency and practicality, by infrared heating lamps and radiant panels, which we will discuss later. Thanks to radiation, heat spreads from the source to an object or person, providing immediate and localised heating without waste.
In addition, the absence of combustion and, therefore, exhaust fumes make this method particularly environmentally sustainable and safe. Also not to be underestimated is the fact that as there are no boilers and pipes there is no need for fire brigade authorisations, dedicated premises or expensive maintenance.
An electric heating platform is also silent and odourless, and the absence of convective air movement avoids the circulation of dust, soot and microorganisms.
All these reasons make infrared heating the optimal solution for solving many practical situations in crafts workshops, companies, bars, restaurants and gathering places in general, thanks to its great versatility of use and ease of installation and maintenance.
In particular, Art Eco heating platforms guarantee maximum indoor electrical safety with IPX7 protection class, as well as considerable energy efficiency to reduce running costs.

Heating using infrared radiant panels
A radiant panel looks like a normal white painted metal panel. When connected to a standard 230 V power supply, it transmits pleasant radiant heat.
Its low thermal inertia allows a room to be heated quickly, safely and above all pleasantly for those inside. The great installation versatility of electric radiant panels means that they can be installed in a false ceiling or on a wall, or they can be suspended from the ceiling, right above the area to be heated.
Art Eco offers these products for many situations: the heating of small environments, enclosed porches, crafts workshops and individual workstations in all kinds of sectors. We are talking about a solution that offers many advantages: no authorisation of any kind is needed to install radiant panels, they are very easy to use, they do not require any maintenance, and they quickly heat people, directly and without causing movement of air, dust and fumes.
Our catalogues include different radiant panel models, with different sizes, powers, compositions and materials.
You can confidently turn to Art Eco, who will help you identify the best infrared heating solution for targeted heating of workplaces and leisure venues of all kinds.
