Why We Left Smart Controls Out of Our Radiators - On Purpose

At The Poured Project, we take a different approach to product design. Our mission has always been to create objects of enduring beauty and function—pieces that are timeless, low-impact, and built to last for generations.

That’s why, when developing our new range of patent-protected concrete radiators, we made a deliberate decision that may surprise some:
We left out built-in smart controls.

Designed for the Long Term, Not the Latest Trend

Smart technology is brilliant—and constantly evolving. The problem is, it evolves too quickly. Built-in control systems can become outdated within a few years, limiting flexibility and functionality. Worse still, if that system fails or becomes unsupported, the entire unit often needs costly upgrades or replacement.

That didn’t sit right with us. We’re designing products with a life expectancy of over 85 years. Embedding fast-moving tech into something that’s meant to last a lifetime simply didn’t align with our values.

Adaptable, Compatible, Future-Proof

Instead of building smart tech directly into the radiator, we made it fully compatible with third-party control systems. This gives you full control over how you want to manage your heating—now and in the future.

Whether you're using Loxone, Nest, Google Home, Alexa, or future smart platforms, our radiators seamlessly integrate with your chosen system. You’re free to tailor your control preferences to your lifestyle, without being locked into a single tech ecosystem.

Simplicity That Lasts

This modular approach also makes servicing and upgrades much simpler. If a control unit fails or becomes outdated, you replace the controller—not the radiator. There’s no interference with the core product, and zero compromise to performance.

In short: we separate form, function, and tech to ensure your radiator continues working beautifully, no matter how the digital world changes around it.

Built for Today. Ready for Tomorrow.

At The Poured Project, we believe the most sustainable design is one that stands the test of time. By decoupling fast-paced technology from our long-lasting heating products, we give you freedom, flexibility, and true future-proofing.

Your space. Your system. Your control.
That’s what quiet innovation looks like.
