FUTURA honored at FOCUS OPEN

FUTURA hall heating on steel girders of an industrial hall
The multi-energy IR hall heating system with integrated lighting function has already won its fourth design award in prestigious competitions for innovation and its valuable contribution to the energy transition.

It is now official: FUTURA has been awarded a Special Mention in the FOCUS OPEN category - a valuable confirmation of the quality of this product development in an international comparison. With this award, the Design Center Baden-Württemberg recognizes a level of design that goes beyond the established level.

"FUTURA can meet the requirements of the energy transition in industrial and commercial buildings, and do so simply and affordably," says Thomas Kübler, Managing Partner of KÜBLER GmbH. With its multi-energy infrared heating system (dark radiator type), the company has developed an answer to the current dilemma of renewable energies, whose use is demanded on the one hand, but which are not sufficiently and reliably available on the other.

The multi-energy system can make highly efficient use of renewable energies such as electricity or hydrogen. However, FUTURA can also be operated with biogas, methane or (biogenic) liquid gas. This works just as well in mono mode as it does in a mix - depending on which energy source is available at the time or is particularly cost-effective. FUTURA also has another advantage, because this world first from KÜBLER combines hall heating with hall lighting in a single system.
This also has a positive impact on sustainability, as the cost of cabling, control units and service calls, for example, is almost halved.

Infrared is the heating principle of choice for heating large industrial halls. This is because, regardless of the ceiling height at which the devices are installed, only the area that is being used is heated. In this way, infrared is similar to the heating principle of the sun. It is perceived as particularly pleasant, is draught-free and - importantly from an energy point of view - is particularly efficient, as no energy is lost in the vast space between the work area and the ceilings in the huge hall buildings. In addition, FUTURA can be easily installed or moved without touching the hall floor. In the renovation sector, this is a unique opportunity to meet the political requirements for new heating systems.

The Design Center Baden-Württemberg has been awarding the International Design Award Baden-Württemberg since 1991. In the more than 30 years of its existence, the annual International Design Award Baden-Württemberg has established itself as a permanent fixture in the economy - both nationally and internationally. Since 2009, it has been held under the compact label "FOCUS OPEN".

  • The Großer Preis des Mittelstandes is one of the special awards that KÜBLER has already received. The specialist for energy-efficient hall heating technologies has also already been recognized with the coveted badge of honour. For KÜBLER, this nomination is about the last two opportunities to go one better for Germany's most coveted business award: to be named Premier or Premier Finalist in the Grand Prix for Small and Medium-Sized Enterprises.
  • 55 percent less CO2 emissions by 2030, 80 to 95 percent by 2050 - these are the German government's targets for the building sector. In addition to residential and office buildings, there is also a great need for industrial buildings (production halls, etc.). In this area, the heating systems from the Ludwigshafen-based infrared specialist KÜBLER already meet the requirements of the next decade. A joint research project between KÜBLER and the Technical University of Kaiserslautern entitled InfraEff now promises the decisive innovative step on the 2050 stage. Supported and funded by the Federal Ministry of Education and Research - BMBF. The cooperation partners met in Ludwigshafen on March 13 to kick off the project.

    Ludwigshafen, August 2022 - An important visit to KÜBLER in Ludwigshafen: Dr. Bernhard Braun (Chairman of the Bündnis90/Grünen parliamentary group), Fabian Ehmann (Spokesman for Economy & Start-ups, Europe & One World, Youth and Forest Policy) and Hanna Thiele (personal assistant) met with the Ludwigshafen-based hall heating specialist and hidden champion in the Palatinate. They discussed the currently highly topical issues of the energy transition, energy efficiency, legislation and the questions: "What distinguishes halls from residential buildings, offices or daycare centers? And why do they need special technologies for efficient and low-CO2 heating?"
  • With the FUTURA, KÜBLER from Ludwigshafen has developed a world first for heating industrial halls. It is an infrared heating system that can process green and fossil fuels highly efficiently - thus building a bridge to the carbon-free era. The company Die Kanter & Schlosser in Trier is the first to use this [...]
