SM Self-Regulating Heating Cables – Tmax 40 °C
SnoMelt self-regulating heating cables are designed for industrial and commercial applications, ideal for snow melting and frost prevention on surfaces such as concrete roadways, access ramps, walkways, stairs, grating, and loading docks.
They can be cut to length on site, offering a simple installation perfectly adapted to specific dimensions without the need for complex design.
Our SM heating cable ensures maximum safety thanks to its self-regulating technology, preventing overheating even when overlapped.
Its output automatically adjusts according to surface temperature, providing energy savings and reduced operating costs while ensuring optimal performance.
This self-regulating heating cable complies with current European Union (CE) standards.

The SM self-regulating heating cable is specifically designed to prevent the build-up of snow and ice on ramps, stairs, and walkways, ensuring safety and accessibility during winter.
Application Example:
Vehicle access ramps, stairs, sidewalks, and pedestrian walkways must remain safe and accessible in winter to guarantee user safety and building accessibility (shopping centers, hospitals, hotels, parking facilities).
Problem Example:
Snow and ice accumulation causes accidents, blocks emergency access, and generates high maintenance costs. Salt and chemical treatments contaminate the environment and require repeated applications, while mechanical snow removal must be carried out repeatedly as long as conditions persist.
The Solution – SM
The SM self-regulating heating cable provides an automatic, safe, and environmentally friendly solution:
-Prevents ice formation and melts snow on critical surfaces
-Consumes energy only when needed, thanks to self-regulating technology
-Reduces the use of salt, chemicals, and mechanical interventions
SM is the ideal solution for long-term safety of access areas, ensuring continuity of movement during winter.
Self-Regulating Heating Cables – SnoMelt (SM) are used in the following sectors:
-Public and Private Building Management
