What Myson does
Myson is a UK-based manufacturer and supplier of sustainable indoor heating and cooling systems, operating as a brand under Purmo Group (UK) Ltd, itself a subsidiary of the international Purmo Group. Headquartered in Gateshead since its 1953 founding, Myson produces a comprehensive product portfolio covering steel panel radiators, designer and column radiators (offering 70 color options), electric radiators, towel warmers, hydronic underfloor heating and cooling, fan convectors, hydronic controls/valves, and the Unisenza Plus Zigbee 3.0-based smart heating controls. Its technology positioning centers on low-temperature heat emission optimized for the heat-pump transition — notably the ULOW-E2 fan-assisted radiator claiming up to 60% higher heat output than traditional radiators, plus Low Surface Temperature (LST) units with anti-bacterial coatings for healthcare and educational compliance. The company sells exclusively through a UK distributor and wholesaler network with no direct consumer channel, generating revenue via hardware unit sales and targeting three buyer personas: installers (technical tools, calculators, BIM objects), specifiers (architects, planners, HVAC engineers), and end users (homeowners/occupants). Vertical exposure spans residential new build, renovation retrofits, healthcare facilities (NHS-compliant LST), education, offices, hospitality, and light commercial. The company is privately held, holds ISO 9001/14001 certifications and CE marking per EN442, and supports its offering with a 10-year warranty on steel panel radiators and quantified energy savings claims (up to 24% via smart controls; at least 12% running cost reduction with fan convectors paired with air-source heat pumps).

Myson competitors and assessment
Company assessmentDirect peers
- Stelrad Radiators: Largest UK manufacturer of panel and designer radiators serving a similar distributor-led channel into new-build, renovation, healthcare, and education. Directly comparable on product breadth (panel, designer, column, electric) and customer base.
- Henrad Radiators: UK and European radiator producer with comparable panel and designer ranges distributed through heating merchants. Competes head-to-head with Myson on specification-led commercial and residential heating projects.
- Jaga: Belgian low-temperature heat emitter specialist whose DBE/Heatwave and fan-assisted products compete directly with Myson's ULOW-E2 in the heat-pump-compatible segment. Closest functional analogue on the heat-pump transition thesis.
- Vasco: European producer of designer radiators, underfloor heating, and ventilation units sold via installer/specifier channels. Closely overlaps Myson's combined radiators-plus-UFH-plus-convectors portfolio.
- Bisque Radiators: UK designer and architectural radiator specialist targeting the same specifier and high-end residential renovation channels as Myson's designer range. Direct overlap on boutique radiator specification work.
- Reina Radiators: UK distributor of designer radiators, towel warmers, and electric heating products. Competes with Myson's designer, electric, and bathroom radiator lines in the same renovation and residential channels.
- Polypipe: UK manufacturer of underfloor heating systems and plastic plumbing solutions distributed through builders' merchants. Directly competes with Myson's underfloor heating business in new-build and renovation projects.
- Wavin: Global provider of underfloor heating, plumbing, and climate systems; its UK heating business sells hydronic UFH and controls in the same channels as Myson. Closest comparable on the underfloor heating and controls side of Myson's portfolio.
Broad incumbents
- Vaillant UK: Major UK heating OEM (boilers, heat pumps, controls) selling through installers and specifying engineers. Overlaps Myson on the heating source-to-emitter proposition and on installer/specifier relationship management, but with a broader boiler-led portfolio.
- Ideal Heating: UK-based heating products manufacturer (boilers, heat pumps, cylinders, radiators under the Ideal and Stelrad umbrellas) operating in the same distributor and specifier channels. Provides the broadest incumbent benchmark for Myson's installed-end heat emitter range.
