About Our Client

Ambion is a low carbon heating system for homes. The market-leading energy performance of the electrical system enables households to reduce their energy bills and their carbon emissions.

This makes Ambion's system a vital component in the decarbonisation of UK buildings, a key element in the Government's commitment to achieving net zero by 2050.Ambion can be fitted in a new home or building, or retro-fitted to replace an existing gas or electric heating system. Installation is simple and easy - no boiler, plumbing or radiator pipework is required.
Ambion's system is particularly suitable for many of the property types that are unsuitable for heat pumps, creating a significant market opportunity.Ambion has a unique technology for the control system of infrared heat panels, which is patented.
