The work was completed exactly as intended.

Supply and installation of 3 x Ø250 system chimneys designed to serve Viessmann Vitoplex 200 condensing boilers, along with 1 x Ø350 system chimney catering to a Viessmann Kob Pyrot biomass boiler. The chimneys are configured to run horizontally from the plant room, transitioning seamlessly into an aluminum-clad windshield that rises vertically through the curved roof of the Energy Centre plant room, ensuring efficiency and durability.

To ensure uninterrupted backup power for Gartnavel General Hospital, the project involved the delivery and installation of four 450 mm diameter chimneys. These chimneys supply the generators and were connected to the containerized engine rooms via a tailor-made frame construction. This clever design allowed the horizontal pipes to be stacked in proper, parallel pairs. This precise arrangement was maintained right up to the main building. From there, the chimneys continued horizontally before making a decisive vertical curve to finally reach an impressive height of 40 meters.

Supply and Installation of 6 x Ø500 System Chimneys serving FG Wilson Gen Sets providing back up power to the Hospital. The exhausts needed to run horizontally above the entrance to the hotel before rising vertically to reach the roof of the energy centre, from where a further extended horizontal run was required with support before turning into th e main vertical runs supported from the existing concrete stack.

The transformation of a patio garden in Fulham, London into an outdoor living area. In the city, it is common to have no garden or a very small garden in front of the house, which is not scluded and an area behind the house which is enclosed. This area is often used as a storage area for bikes or as a garden space. In this case Ali Paterson has taken the area and transformed it into an outdoor living area, which makes the best possible use of the outdoor space and turns into a welcoming external living area with a clear focal point, amidst outdoor plants, An oasis of calm in the city.

We supplied and installed five ICS 5000 Ø350 system chimneys to serve the backup generator sets at the Research Centre. A key challenge was to minimize their visual impact on the building's aesthetics. To achieve this, the framework and outer casing of the chimneys were soda blasted, a process that allowed them to blend seamlessly with the surrounding structure, ensuring both functionality and visual harmony with the existing architecture.

The facility features comprehensive industrial processes that encompass every stage of food production: from dough preparation and filling creation to cooking, drying, cooling, and finally, storage, packaging, and preservation. Our mandate involved the delivery and installation of flue gas exhaust systems dedicated to two large-capacity steam generators essential to the food processing line.

At a facility for an industrial candle wax producer, Schiedel successfully designed and installed a high-performance exhaust system for a new boiler. Executed in close coordination with the boiler manufacturer, this project was vital to ensuring the safety and constant availability of essential process heat. Given the high stakes for the plant’s operations, the implementation demanded an exceptional level of technical precision and attention to detail.

The project involved the supply and technical support for the installation of 5 ICS 50 Ø1200 system chimneys, each serving a 21MW gas boiler.
