Radiant Aviation, Inc. has developed, patented and sells the worlds only infrared alternative to traditional glycol-based aircraft deicing. Radiant deicing systems are fully approved for use in the United States by the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA). Radiants patented technology was developed in cooperation with the FAA in the mid-1990s. Radiant facilities are currently installed and operating at New Yorks JFK airport, one of the busiest international gateways in the world and at Wisconsins Rhinelander airport, serving the general aviation and regional airline community. With increasing pressure to reduce the use of glycol and mitigate its impact on the environment, several airports across the United States and Canada are in discussions with Radiant to scope the installation of Radiant infrared deicing facilities at their airports. Radiant Aviation is a wholly-owned subsidiary of Radiant Energy Corp., a publicly traded company on the TSX Venture Exchange (TSXV.RDT). Benefits of Radiant Infrared Deicing * Significantly reduces, and in some cases, eliminates, the use of glycol-based deicing fluids * Dramatically reduces the environmental impact of deicing operations * Provides reliable and consistent performance in all winter conditions * Significantly improves deicing throughput times * The only non-fluid deicing solution that is FAA approved for use Radiants proprietary technology is a unique thermal deicing method utilizing natural gas or propane to efficiently produce infrared (IR) radiant energy. This energy is focused in an optimal manner to remove frost, snow, ice and water from aircraft surfaces quickly and safely, without adversely affecting the aircraft, passengers or ground personnel.
