French craftsmanship. Architectural comfort. Since 1975.
For more than 50 years, CINIER has reimagined the way heating and cooling can live inside the home. Born in the South of France, Maison CINIER combines technical expertise, sculptural design and exceptional craftsmanship to create radiators, towel warmers, lighting and hydronic cooling solutions that become part of the architecture — not just equipment added to it. Each CINIER piece is made in France with the same philosophy: comfort should be felt, design should be timeless, and every detail should express a sense of quiet luxury.
Surrounding yourself with beauty is a lifestyle.
To each one’s vision.
The key is to make sense of things. “
Michel Cinier
Where engineering meets art
CINIER was founded by Michel Cinier in 1975, first as a specialist in heating and cooling systems. This technical heritage remains at the heart of the Maison today.
Over the decades, CINIER has transformed functional comfort into a new design language: sculptural radiators made from Olycal® stone, architectural towel warmers, refined LED lighting, and GREENOR, a discreet hydronic heating and cooling solution designed for sophisticated interiors.
More than decorative objects, CINIER creations are engineered to deliver true comfort — soft radiant heat, elegant proportions, silent performance and refined integration into luxury residential, hospitality and interior design projects.
Made in France, shaped by hand
Every CINIER radiator and towel warmer is manufactured and finished in the CINIER workshops in France.
The surfaces are worked, sculpted and hand-patinated by skilled artisans, giving each piece its own depth, texture and character. No two CINIER creations are exactly alike.
This is what makes a CINIER piece more than a heating appliance: it is a functional work of art, designed to bring beauty, warmth and atmosphere into the most personal spaces of the home.
Olycal® stone: a signature material
At the core of many CINIER creations is Olycal®, a unique natural stone material developed for exceptional comfort and artistic expression.
Its large radiant surface helps diffuse heat gently and evenly, while its mineral texture offers endless possibilities for color, patina and custom finishes.
For designers, architects and homeowners, Olycal® opens a rare possibility: to choose heating that feels architectural, personal and visually meaningful.
A family Maison with an international vision
CINIER has remained an independent family company, guided by creativity, technical innovation and a deep respect for craftsmanship.
From private residences to luxury hotels, from Europe to North America and beyond, CINIER works with architects, interior designers, showrooms and homeowners looking for comfort solutions that do not compromise the beauty of the interior.
The Maison continues to innovate with new collections, custom-made finishes, sculptural LED lighting and advanced hydronic solutions such as GREENOR — bringing together heating, cooling and design in one refined architectural approach.
Our philosophy
Surrounding yourself with beauty is a way of life.
At CINIER, comfort is not only a technical performance. It is a sensation, an atmosphere, a relationship between material, light, warmth and space.
We design for interiors where every object matters.
