WHAT ARE THE BENEFITS? Bathrooms are unique environments with some very specific heat requirements. Usually damp and humid, we are often undressed in there, the bathroom must be the optimum temperature. Design and functionality should work in perfect harmony too, and one of the primary functions within a bathroom is to hang, warm and dry towels. Eskimo believe that it IS necessary to have towel rails in a bathroom. Not only because we want to sell you some, but because there...

Interior space is so precious when designing what sits within it. Eskimo design and make radiators as pieces of interior product design. So radiators no longer have to be ugly, they can blend, they can pop, be quiet or loud - but always, beautiful. However even if you have a very large scheme to play with, you may still struggle to find an aesthetically pleasing arrangement with regards to your wall space and where to hang your radiators. Often, vastly...

Panel radiators are everywhere aren't they? But if you look closely, there really is a difference in the finer detail and that's what great design is all about. Eskimo radiators are designed with a focus on clean lines, technical reliability and intelligence. No unnecessary frippery. 'Form over function' is nowhere to be seen and simplicity of form is a thing of beauty, not a design failure. There is nothing more pleasing than the clean lines of our original Outline radiators. A modular...

The ancient craft of veneering dates from time before the Pharaohs. It is not, as some people mistakenly imagine, a cheap way to gloss over poor workmanship or materials. Many fine examples of veneered work have endured hundreds and some even thousands of years. Who knew. Ye olde late 1600’s /early 1700’s cabinet makers employed methods of construction to ensure longevity through stable and well-balanced substrate and frame construction; and glued more valuable, more beautiful, and rarer woods on to them. Veneering...

Eskimo design & manufacture radiators and towel warmers in the UK. Birmingham in fact. People often find this surprising, because they don't come across many UK-manufactured products in their daily lives these days. The UK has quasi-dominant positions in only two large manufacturing sectors, namely pharmaceuticals and aerospace. But of course we have many niche producers spread over umpteen sectors in this Country and the UK is still the world's sixth-largest producer of manufactured goods apparently. We're happy to be...
