    Flint Engineering

    Flint Engineering specializes in low-carbon technologies based on their patented Isomat technology and has developed two low-carbon heating products. The first product is a radiator replacement that is 150% more efficient than traditional steel radiators at low temperatures, ideal for retrofitting with heat pumps without requiring more wall space and has a faster response time. The second product is a roof panel that fulfils a building's heating and hot water needs while meeting the requirements of a roof, making the property self-sufficient and has the potential to end fuel poverty.
