Raychem self-regulating electric heat tracing system from Tyco Thermal Controls is making winter journeys on site safer for GalxoSmithKline staff.

The system has been installed to provide frost protection on a link-bridge between two buildings on the firm’s Harlow facility. Tyco distributor partner Delta-T supplied and installed the energy efficient ramp heating under a 40-m length of uncovered walkway to prevent ice forming or snow lying.
