Pew, what a scorcher! Heated cushions for your chilly church

One CRE 24 exhibitor will make sure churches give a warm welcome to visitors – and contribute to the Church of England commitment to achieve carbon net-zero status by 2030.

Sit & Heat has partnered with the church to supply sustainable heated cushions for chairs and pews to more than 40,000 churches throughout the country.

Anthony Gerard, who has worked for more than 30 years with designers, architects, catering organisations and building promotors all over the world, is the UK agent for the cushions which are made in the Netherlands.

‘They are ideal for cathedrals and churches with chairs or historic pews requiring preservation,’ he explained. ‘They deliver direct warmth to individual parishioners, providing a “green” heating alternative without the need for conventional heating throughout the whole building.

‘The cordless, rechargeable cushions feature both battery-powered and fixed-wire options and are designed to fit any seating arrangement. They are equipped with individual controls and smart sensors, automatically activating and deactivating to conserve energy – with a significant reduction in heating bills.

‘With endorsements from King Willen Alexander of the Netherlands, and the Church of England, Sit & Heat has received commendable recognition, demonstrating a significant alignment with energy and environmental stewardship at the highest levels!’

While endorsed by the Church of England, Sit & Heat cushions can be supplied to churches of all denominations.
