FUTURA honored at FOCUS OPEN
June 13, 2023
The multi-energy IR hall heating system with integrated lighting function has already won its fourth design award in prestigious competitions for innovation and its valuable contribution to the energy transition.
It is now official: FUTURA has been awarded a Special Mention in the FOCUS OPEN category - a valuable confirmation of the quality of this product development in an international comparison. With this award, the Design Center Baden-Württemberg recognizes a level of design that goes beyond the established level.
"FUTURA can meet the requirements of the energy transition in industrial and commercial buildings, and do so simply and affordably," says Thomas Kübler, Managing Partner of KÜBLER GmbH. With its multi-energy infrared heating system (dark radiator type), the company has developed an answer to the current dilemma of renewable energies, whose use is demanded on the one hand, but which are not sufficiently and reliably available on the other.
The multi-energy system can make highly efficient use of renewable energies such as electricity or hydrogen. However, FUTURA can also be operated with biogas, methane or (biogenic) liquid gas. This works just as well in mono mode as it does in a mix - depending on which energy source is available at the time or is particularly cost-effective. FUTURA also has another advantage, because this world first from KÜBLER combines hall heating with hall lighting in a single system.
This also has a positive impact on sustainability, as the cost of cabling, control units and service calls, for example, is almost halved.
Infrared is the heating principle of choice for heating large industrial halls. This is because, regardless of the ceiling height at which the devices are installed, only the area that is being used is heated. In this way, infrared is similar to the heating principle of the sun. It is perceived as particularly pleasant, is draught-free and - importantly from an energy point of view - is particularly efficient, as no energy is lost in the vast space between the work area and the ceilings in the huge hall buildings. In addition, FUTURA can be easily installed or moved without touching the hall floor. In the renovation sector, this is a unique opportunity to meet the political requirements for new heating systems.
The Design Center Baden-Württemberg has been awarding the International Design Award Baden-Württemberg since 1991. In the more than 30 years of its existence, the annual International Design Award Baden-Württemberg has established itself as a permanent fixture in the economy - both nationally and internationally. Since 2009, it has been held under the compact label "FOCUS OPEN".

55 percent less CO₂ emissions by 2030, 80 to 95 percent by 2050 - these are the German government's targets for the building sector. In addition to residential and office buildings, there is also a great need for industrial buildings (production halls, etc.). In this area, the heating systems from the Ludwigshafen-based infrared specialist KÜBLER already meet the requirements of the next decade. A joint research project between KÜBLER and the Technical University of Kaiserslautern entitled InfraEff now promises the decisive innovative step on the 2050 stage. Supported and funded by the Federal Ministry of Education and Research - BMBF. The cooperation partners met in Ludwigshafen on March 13 to kick off the project. -
Berlin, 14.03.2024 The energy-flexible new development FUTURA from hall heating specialist KÜBLER is the winner of the BVMW Future Prize 2024. Founder and Managing Director Thomas Kübler accepted the award in front of around 6,000 participants at the BVMW Future Day at Station-Berlin. -
Ludwigshafen. KÜBLER employees have been committed to environmental protection for 30 years. From the very beginning, the leading manufacturer of hall heating systems has focused on energy saving, CO₂ reduction and sustainability. Now KÜBLER is donating 1,000 trees for environmental protection. -
Ludwigshafen, August 2023: Konrad Stockmeier, FDP member of the Bundestag from Mannheim, is a member of the Bundestag Committee for Climate Protection and Energy and his parliamentary group's rapporteur for the Building Energy Act (GEG), the so-called "Heating Act". He was involved in the negotiations on the GEG and is therefore familiar with this law. On Friday, he visited Thomas Kübler, founder and managing partner of KÜBLER GmbH, in Ludwigshafen. With his expertise as a specialist in large-capacity heating systems, the entrepreneur has been campaigning for months for commercial and industrial hall buildings to be given greater consideration in the GEG.
