According to research by Cornell University, hourly labor costs are 10 percent higher in factories that fail to maintain comfortable temperatures in cold weather because workers working in cold environments are more likely to make mistakes.

Çukurova Heat Marketing Manager Osman Ünlü stated that indoor temperatures in factories should be between 18°C and 22°C, and drew attention to what needs to be done to ensure thermal comfort conditions in industrial facilities.

Many external factors influence employee motivation and performance in factories. Temperature is a primary factor. Achieving the ideal temperature is essential to create an environment that supports both productivity and employee well-being. According to research from Cornell University, workers working in cold environments tend to make more mistakes. This leads to a 10 percent increase in hourly labor costs for factories.

“It is possible to increase employee motivation and productivity by ensuring thermal comfort in factories,” said Çukurova Heating Marketing Manager Osman Ünlü, highlighting the importance of ideal working temperatures in industrial facilities and what needs to be done to ensure thermal comfort conditions.

The indoor temperature should be between 18 °C and 22 °C.

“In order to provide a comfortable working environment in factories, the indoor temperature should be 18 °C It needs to be between 22°C and 28°C. Because in factories that cannot provide a comfortable temperature in cold weather, employees are more likely to underperform and make mistakes. Studies show that hourly labor costs are 10 percent higher in factories that cannot provide ideal working temperatures.

Energy savings of 30 percent can be achieved in heating

By choosing the right heating system Both thermal comfort for employees and high savings can be achieved. In this context, we can say that “electric or radiant heating systems offer the ideal solution for heating factories.” This is because the operating principle of central hot air blowing systems, which we call traditional systems, is insufficient in terms of energy savings. This significantly reduces the profitability of businesses. However, with electric or radiant heaters, It is possible to achieve energy savings of 30 percent. Moreover, these systems “It also features localized and spot heating. This allows us to heat objects and people only in the work area, based on need, thus preventing unnecessary energy consumption. At Çukurova Isı, we minimize heating costs in industrial facilities and provide comfortable working environments with our high-tech Goldsun CPH ceramic plate radiant heaters and Goldsun Vega series electric heaters.”
