High Temperature Air Filtration

In-house manufacture
We manufacture practically all the components of our hot gas filtration systems in-house.
The ceramic filter elements are made by our subsidiary company Glosfume Technologies Ltd.
Glosfume Ltd fabricate all filter bodies, walkways, support structures, pressure vessels, ducting
and other parts required.
In this way we have everything under our control. We are not dependent on outside suppliers and
can change our production schedules flexibly to react promptly to special customer requirements.
We can manufacture in house standard steel housings up to a weight of 4 tonnes these are rated
for operating temperatures up to 450°C. Special versions can be supplied for higher temperatures
in various grades of steel.
All parts of the filter housings are laser cut to maintain correct alignment between the ceramic
filter elements and the automatic reverse jet cleaning system. Larger units are fabricated by
glosfume
®
approved fabricators.
The modular design of
glosfume
®
filtration units makes it possible for them to be shipped pre-
assembled, including elements, or as separate units for final assembly at the customer’s site.
This makes for easier transport, shipment and installation.
Where our filtration units are to be exported and if requested by the customer, we will manufacture
just the filter head and allow the customer to fabricate basic items such as hoppers, frames and
ductwork locally. This enables significant material cost savings to be made and also reduces the
shipping costs.
