WarmTronics Application: Station Ticket Barrier Heating

GWR is one of the largest train companies in Britain, transporting more than 100 million customers a year. When the Great Western Railway was built, it opened the West and Wales to trade and tourism.

As well as electrifying their main routes, and upgrading key stations, GWR have carried out the biggest upgrade of trains in the country. GWR is part of FirstGroup plc, the leading transport operator in the UK and North America – whose services help to create strong, vibrant and sustainable local economies.

WarmTronics Heat Mats provide warmth to the ticket barrier operatives, as an alternative to the 3kw infrared lamp heaters found in many stations. With an estimated electricity savings of £420.00 per month, per ticket barrier, WarmTronics Heat Mats offers a Return on Investment of 1 to 2 Months.

In addition to the warmth, our Heat Mats provide anti-fatigue comfort whilst the GWR team are supporting their customers at the ticket barriers.
