In the door areas of aircraft, the floor cools down due to thermal bridging to the outer skin, especially on long-haul flights, reducing the comfort of passengers and crew members. Additionally, condensation can form as a result. In the past, the only available solutions to this problem were vulnerable, complex, and heavy heating systems. Furthermore, conventional systems often lack the necessary robustness to withstand the high mechanical and thermal stresses typical in aviation production processes, leading to high rejection rates and reduced lifespan.

Fortunately, the innovative Powerfilm technology with PTC effect is now available as an intelligent, ultralight, and durable component of the floor structure, allowing for automatic self-regulating temperature control in the door areas.

The benefits of our floor heaters
