Danfoss is a well-known energy management company located in Denmark, which is involved in the fields of energy consumption control, refrigeration and heating, and is the inventor of the radiator thermostatic control valve, and has strong technical strength in the field of heating.
The scale of Danfoss heating products is still very large, with 26 manufacturing plants, distributed in 12 countries, not only with electric heating equipment, but also widely used in China plumbing systems, to achieve full coverage of heating products and parts, in 2017 Danfoss heating system field annual revenue of nearly one billion euros, the market size is very considerable.
Today, however, heating systems are no longer Danfoss' main business, accounting for only 17% of revenue, ranking fourth. As an energy management company, Danfoss has also begun to expand its business in the direction of electric energy, producing power modules, charging piles and other products to follow the trend of electric vehicles. In 2017, Danfoss' automotive business also surpassed the heating systems business to account for one-quarter of the total revenue.
The huge market size, of course, is inseparable from the company's globalization strategy, Danfoss's internationalization strategy was implemented very early, in 1939, Danfoss exported its products to other countries, and now its products have covered more than 100 countries and regions. In the 90s of the 20th century, Danfoss entered the Chinese market, and now has 8 distributors, 7 factories and 20 offices in China, which can be called the most extensive foreign electric floor heating brand in China.
Danfoss has only one heating cable, called ECflex, which performs well in electromagnetic shielding, with a 360-degree all-aluminum shield to ensure that the electromagnetic intensity is minimized and electromagnetic interference is avoided. However, unlike Nexans, Danfoss uses explicit splicing technology, which uses external connectors to connect the cold wire, which does not look like a strong sense of unity, but the joints will also be buried in the ground during installation, which has little impact on aesthetics.
In terms of safety, Danfoss cables with explicit splicing are also reliable, and the cable glands use heat shrink technology, which has good waterproof performance, and also meets international and domestic manufacturing standards, so there will be no potential safety hazards. The cost of Danfoss cable is about 220 yuan per square meter, which is average, and it is a good choice for underfloor heating.
