Cinier Olycal Stone Radiators

CINIER OLYCAL Stone Radiators redefine the aesthetics of heating. The typical radiator heater or heat pump does not do much for styling a room - often painted to blend in with the background, the radiator/heat pump is there to serve one purpose - heating and cooling. CINIER Olycal Stone Radiators change this by becoming a piece of art, and mood lighting (specific series).

Exclusive modern products for the Luxury homes.

The Ateliers Cinier has reinvented the radiator to be a decorative work of art and is the only company in the world producing a collection of Towel warmers & radiators made with Olycal stone since 1990. In addition to being respectful of the environment, Cinier radiators offer
the highest level of technology, quality of fabrication and creativity to deliver excellence in the art of heating.

Since 1975, Michel Cinier has been signing all new product lines introduced by the company. The company has expanded its range of product lines to include the works of two artists, creating new designs with a level of creativity such than the design often becomes even more valuable to the customer than the technical performance of the product.

Johanne Cinier, creative director at the Cinier company, finds her inspiration in colors when creating new towel warmer & radiator designs, and those designs become a complete representation of contemporary art.

The LT LED lighting collection brings a modern and exclusive style. Some LT pieces have become already iconic.

Our products are intended for luxury & modern homes or hospitality (Top-end modern boutique hotels, concept store, restaurants, exclusive offices and modern Interior Design).

We love creativity, beauty & energy efficiency.

 

CONTEMPORARY RADIATORS
Environmentally friendly and high-end design. In 1990, Atelier CINIER invented the first radiator sculpture. Since then the company has been creating and manufacturing radiators as true works of art in its workshops in Sète, France.

 

An eco-friendly material:
CINIER radiators are crafted in Olycale stone: a natural stone brought from the Pyrenees, crushed and restructured to the highest quality, in the Cinier workshops.


Technical excellence and exceptional comfort: 
Olycal has similar properties to cast iron: it generates matchless radiant heat and provides exceptional heating comfort.
In its hot water version, the made-to-measure  heating element of each radiator is crafted in tubes of corrosion-resistant and expansion-resistant copper, a unique superior metal in terms of its performance in providing  heat conduction and comfort. 
In its electric version, the heating element is composed of a heating cable, triple-insulated for stability and age-resistance. All products are hand finished with natural  pigments. All materials selected and used are environmentally friendly and handled with the utmost care in the Cinier workshops.


Energy efficient:
The large surface and unique radiance of the Olycale stone allow greater comfort and high energy efficiency.
A very precise electronic control optimizes consumption to the nearest degree.
Made individually and with passion, every CINIER radiator brings a little of  its history and beauty into places where architecture wants to meet modern design.

Cast Iron Radiators serve a function, yet are not asthetically pleasing. Gas or Wood burner fires are seasonal and do not provide any visual benefit when not in use.

Cinier Olycale Stone Radiators are asthetically pleasing year round as pieces of art, mood lighting with the LED option (Greenor & ROC Series), and can cool with the Greenor Series.

 

Thermal performance and material flexibility

After seven years of research and development, Atelier CINIER have developed the Olycale Stone: The stone is crushed at the initial stage of production then restructured in the Cinier workshop following an exclusive patented process allowing heat to be emitted with high efficiency.

Olycale® Stone has several advantages:

1. Thermal: Heat is accumulated and reinstated (quality due to the coupling of radiance and thermal mass which allows heat to accumulate for and be evenly released.)

2. Tactile: The Olycale stone is made from the finest quality of natural stone and feels soft to the touch.

3. Design: The fine grinded stone allows the creation of true contemporary structures

4. Longevity and sturdiness of the stone

5. Ecological: Olycale stone originates from the Pyrenees mountains in the South of France and is essentially made up of natural minerals.

An excellent alternative to steel, cast iron, or aluminium, Olycale stone is the heating material of the future. Its unmatched properties make it the key element in all Cinier radiators.

 

Exceptional comfort 

Each of CINIER radiators is studied and conceived to diffuse exceptional heating comfort. Their technology is based on 3 principles:

  • the radiance of Olycale® stone
  • the thermal inertia of Olycale® stone
  • emission at low temperature thanks to the large surface of the radiator and electronic control.

The Olycale® stone: The Olycale® stone is a natural white colour rock (from the mountains of the Pyrennées in the south of France) that is smashed down and remodeled to provide for an exceptional diffusion of thermal energy.

Like cast iron, the Olycale® stone emits soft and homogeneous heat at low temperature. Cinier radiators are perfectly silent.

 

In 230V, electric CINIER radiators are equipped with a proportional integral electronic RTS regulation. Its principle is simple : the RTS regulation constantly and proportionally adjusts yours radiators output (power) to the thermal needs.

The effect between the thermal mass of Olycale stone and the RTS regulator is highly efficient and provides noticeable energy savings.

Easily accessible, the CINIER RTS regulator is also equipped with a programmable timer (7 days 24H) to  adjust the temperature during the night or while you are away.

DeltaDore X3D Thermostats controled via an App.

While adapting the power of your radiator to your real needs, RTS regulation can reduce your energy needs up to 20%.

All the electric CINIER models are listed CE and NF norms

PRINCIPLE OF HEATING

The thermal mass effect (also called inertia): The thermal mass of the Olycale® stone provides a function of "accumulation" and "smoothing" of the heat emission. It allows you to emit a soft, enveloping warmth without breaking, to keep the room permanently at the right temperature while providing you with exceptional comfort.

The low temperature:
The large surface of the radiators and their precise regulation makes it possible to heat at low temperature without any mixing of air (total silence of operation). The air in the room is not dry, it is healthier and more pleasant to breathe. 
This low temperature radiation avoids convection (source of heat loss). It does not create dust and respects the level of humidity necessary for the quality of the air and the good health.

 

FOR CENTRAL HEATING INSTALLATIONS W/ BOILER & WATER CIRCULATION

Heating element:
In the central heating version, the CINIER radiator heating element consists of solid copper tubes, coated with a specific anti-corrosion and anti-expansion process for perfect silence and reliability.

Tested at 25 bar (for a possible operating pressure between 1 and 10 bar), this copper heating body (approximately 50 meters per radiator) is perfectly balanced, of exceptional strength and ensures the circulation of hot water from optimally.

The heating body is then entirely embedded in Olycale stone thanks to an exclusive technological process. In this way, all the surface and even the mineral mass of the radiator, which diffuses a natural and long-lasting heat, are heated internally.

All CINIER hydraulic radiators are tested according to EN442-2 by a recognized independent laboratory. Their quality is controlled and guaranteed.

 

HYDRAULIC CONNECTION & POWER

Connection:
Provide flush-mounted outlets if possible to avoid visible pipes. 
Connection diagrams and center distance dimensions are available on request. 
Predict departure and return expectations with a ½ male bent strain. 
Connections are made by hoses (supplied with elbow, fittings and wrench).

An Oventrop thermostatic tap and an adjusting tee are also provided for each appliance.

Specificity and innovation CINIER:

The tap and the connections are hidden behind the device to fully retain the aesthetics of each Cinier creation .

Powers:
The powers are calculated according to the European standard EN 442-2 in delta T 50  (average temperature of the water of the heating of 70 ° C for 20 ° C in environment). They are controlled by a recognized independent laboratory.

We can also tell you the power for a delta T 60 (average heating water temperature of 80 ° for 20 ° in room) or delta T30 (average heating water temperature of 50 ° for 20 ° in room .) For the other delta T, thank you to ask us the catalog of the powers CINIER.

 

ELECTRIC RADIATORS

Heating element:
The heating element consists of a specific double insulation heating cable that is stable over time. The CINIER cable is evenly distributed over the entire surface of the heating element. The latter is equipped with a 2-meter capillary double-insulated thermal safety limiter that prevents any risk of overheating and class II.

The heating body is then entirely embedded in Olycale stone thanks to an exclusive technological process. In this way, all the surface and even the mineral mass of the radiator, which diffuses a natural and long-lasting heat, are heated internally.

All CINIER electric radiators benefit from class II and the French NF electricity standard. Their quality and safety are controlled and guaranteed.

Connection:
A simple electrical outlet is sufficient. Each device is equipped with a pilot wire to be controlled with the other radiators of the house and thus personalize even more your comfort.

 

THERMOSTATS

2 possible choices of efficient thermostats equip the CINIER electric radiators:

  • Either a thermostat on the radiator: the proportional integral electronic regulation RTS. Its principle is simple: the regulation RTS adapts permanently and proportionally the power of your radiator to the thermal needs of the moment. 
    Coupled with the thermal inertia effect of the Olycale stone (which accumulates and "smooth" the emission of heat), the RTS regulation allows to make significant energy savings.

The RTS CINIER control is also supplied as standard with an infrared central programming remote control to automatically manage on 7 days and 24 hours of the day your comfort to the nearest degree. DeltaDore X3D App controled thermostats avaliable

By adapting the power of your radiators to the real needs and reducing the ambient temperature by a few degrees during the night or your absence, the RTS control gives you real energy savings, from 20 to 30%.

Each radiator with thermostat RTS is equipped with a pilot wire to be controlled, if you wish, with the other radiators and thus to personalize even more your comfort.

  • Either a high quality remote thermostat. Very practical and very easy to use, it can hang on the wall or sit on a piece of furniture. Operating with Radio technology, it can control multiple radiators at a time. This thermostat is ideal for CINIER towel warmers.

All Cinier radiators in electric version benefit from the CE and NF standard.

Their quality is controlled and guaranteed.

Established in 1951 as manufacturer representatives, this third-generation family-owned company has a continuing policy of representing specialist manufacturers of quality products for the plumbing and marine industries. SA Plumbing Supply's parent company - Shipwright Agencies Ltd - experienced the marine sector weakening toward the end of the 1990s and thus diversified into the plumbing sector, specialising in niche products that were a point of difference from the norm.

In early 2014, Shipwright Agencies Ltd created a new brand - SA Plumbing Supply Ltd - to convey a name that had greater relevance to the plumbing industry. We are a small boutique company where you receive personalised service that goes the extra mile to get the best products without paying for an arm and a leg.

Quadro (Italy) was the first brand onboard during the Shipwright Agencies era in early 2000, specialising in stainless steel tapware with highly architectural origins and is Green to boot.

Over the years, SA Plumbing Supply has sourced quality European brands to introduce to the New Zealand market. Director Sean Paterson regularly travels to European Trade Shows, such as Salone del Mobile in Milan and ISH in Frankfurt, to ensure SA Plumbing Supply is at the forefront of leading product procurement. 

In 2015, SA Plumbing Supply began marketing Goman (Italy) as a specialist supplier of accessible bathroom products that changed the perception of the disability market (accessible doesn't need to be ugly). Subsequently 2017, Hewi (Germany) increased the market share of highly architectural accessible products by introducing the System 900 range, which has set the standard for Hotels and luxury homes. 

2018 saw the introduction of the Cinier range of Olycal Stone Radiators and LED Lighting. Cinier's Olycal Stone Radiators serve a functional purpose and double as art and lighting.

Following the ISH Trade Show of 2019, SA Plumbing Supply became the NZ distributor for EverLife Design (Italy) and Pellet (France). EverLife Design, in particular, has been well-received for its original concepts and simple lines.

In the winter of 2019, the Universal & Accessible Bathroom Design brand was created to address the bigger picture of Universal Design in the home. This showcases the best of all brands and looks for any budget.
