Coffee Roasters: Safe Venting for the Hottest Applications


Coffee roasting is both an art and a science — and it’s hot work. Roasting machines can generate flue gas temperatures in excess of 800°C. In these environments, SFL’s Europa® system again stands out. Its 1mm thick 316L stainless steel inner liner handles continuous use at 760°C and intermittent peaks of 1000°C, ensuring uncompromised safety and durability. Multiple insulation options maintain low-touch


surface temperatures, ideal for café or retail settings where public safety is critical. SFL also supports full system design, including terminal equipment, filtration, fan assistance, and noise mitigation — essential for urban installations with stringent emissions and odour controls.


Bakery Ovens: Reliable Exhausts for 24/7 Food Production


From artisan bakeries to industrial bread lines, ovens run non-stop and demand robust flue systems. Gas- fired ovens typically generate exhaust temperatures between 150°C and 400°C — a perfect match for SFL’s NOVA® twin wall flue system, rated T600 and trusted across the UK food sector. With a wide array of components, NOVA® adapts


to every setup — from multi-oven lines to integration with heat recovery systems. Its design flexibility enables efficient installation regardless of site
