Stelrad Radiators Turn Up The Heat At Forth Valley College In Scotland Forth Valley College is one of Scotland’s leading providers of education and training delivering more than 750 courses from its main campuses in Alloa, Falkirk and Stirling. It is recognised throughout the UK and beyond for its innovative, creative approach to learning and teaching. This equips its students with the skills and experience they need to develop their careers. The Falkirk Campus opened in 2020 and comprises an impressive modern building offering an excellent environment for learning. Included in this new campus was a well-designed heating system to ensure students and staff were comfortable at all times of the year. Key to the heating system was the use of Stelrad radiators throughout the campus – a mix of more than 300 Stelrad Planar radiators –– both horizontal and vertical models – alongside 40 Concord Lo-Line floor mounted radiators and several of Stelrad’s bestselling range of low surface temperature radiators. Said Stelrad’s Head of Marketing, Chris Harvey, “we have seen our radiators

selected for an increasing number of large-scale, education related projects in schools, colleges and universities across the UK in the past couple of years. We’re seeing our vertical radiators chosen more often to provide effective heating, but with the additional aesthetic aims of maximising on the visual appearance of the radiators. And the use of our LST range where safety is the prime concern and there is a need for a ‘safe to touch’ option is the icing on the cake in this project.” www. stelrad.com
