London, UK – March 6th, 2025; Green tech start-up Flint Engineering has today unveiled IsoMat, a breakthrough technology to confront the climate crisis. With global temperatures rising, this innovative solution promises to transform temperature management across multiple industries while dramatically reducing energy consumption.
At its core, IsoMat reinvents traditional heat pipe technology through an innovative flat aluminium sheet design, featuring an internal network of sealed channels. When exposed to temperature differentials, the liquid within these channels undergoes a rapid cycle of evaporation and condensation, resulting in near-instantaneous heat transfer across the entire surface.
Enabling thermal energy transfer approximately 5,000 times more efficiently than copper or aluminium alone, IsoMat opens myriad new possibilities across multiple sectors.
In construction, IsoMat’s integration into building cladding systems offers remarkable potential. By harnessing ambient temperature differences to naturally heat or cool buildings, IsoMat roof cladding could potentially harvest enough energy from the air to power an entire home, dramatically reducing building energy consumption.
Commercial refrigeration can also see dramatic improvements through IsoMat’s simple shelf replacement system. Rather than relying on circulated cold air alone, refrigerated items are chilled through direct contact with IsoMat shelves. This approach reduces compressor energy consumption by up to 30%, delivering significant cost and energy savings.
In electrification, IsoMat can transform electric vehicle battery management. When incorporated into battery pack casings, it distributes thermal energy evenly, maintaining batteries at an optimal 25 degrees (±1°). This precise temperature control extends battery life, enables faster charging, and increases range – critical advantages for electric vehicles
Mark Robinson, CEO of Flint Engineering, said:
IsoMat tackles the climate crisis head-on.
“It future-proofs industries against rising global temperatures, advances climate change resilience and dramatically improves efficiency. We’re seeing unprecedented interest across the construction, electrification, and refrigeration sectors – yet these industries represent just a snapshot of the potential for this game changing innovation. With commercial deployment scheduled for this year, we’re preparing to engage with venture capital communities in the UK, North America, and the Middle East. We’re actively seeking partnerships and welcome ideas from companies across all sectors. The possibilities for this revolutionary technology are truly endless.”
Flint is currently finalising commercial partnerships and will begin production later this year. Early adopters across target industries are already exploring implementation strategies, recognising IsoMat’s potential to dramatically reduce energy consumption while improving.
