Cabcool is a temperature-controlled ventilation system for train cabs which Creactive designed and developed in-house. It works by cooling a concentrated directional air stream instead of wasting energy cooling the entire cab. Only 15% of the energy required for full air conditioning is used.
Following successful trials with London Underground, Cabcool was first fitted to the Victoria Line. An even more efficient design has since been developed and installed on the Class 319 main line rolling stock for Porterbrook, London Underground’s Circle Line and Croydon’s Tramlink.
We are continuously developing the design and electronics for the product to reduce weight and cost, whilst improving its efficiency. It is now being developed for different applications in other market places.
