Schiedel Norway was selected as a proud supplier for a highly critical phase in the vessel’s life: its significant upgrade and 12-meter extension. This comprehensive rebuild was initiated in close cooperation with the shipyard, Vard, and became necessary after the original construction faced severe technical challenges and stability issues that threatened the full functionality required for its complex research operations. Schiedel was specifically tasked with designing and supplying the complete exhaust system for the vessel's powerful generators. Our mission was not merely to replace components, but to contribute a fundamental solution that would finally allow this world-class research and expedition vessel to meet its stringent performance and structural requirements - and ultimately achieve seaworthiness.

Supply and installation of 22 stainless steel system chimneys with a supporting mast for the energy centre. The mast and chimneys had to be lowered by crane through an opening in the roof of the building. This meant that the plan needed to come together for the supply and erection of the chimneys on the mast sections, to be delivered to site in full and on time to tie in with the crane hire.

This project involved the construction and installation of three freestanding chimneys, each around 14 meters high and with a large cross-section. These were supplied and installed by a specialist partner to supply three generators in a large data center in the Hauts-de-France region. The chimneys connected to the units were manufactured using our ICS 5000 system with a cross-section of 400 mm.

As part of this project, Schiedel designed custom planning for a major telecom provider in the Netherlands to integrate a new emergency power generator with noise attenuation into a building with limited space. The client, one of the largest telecom and data providers, opted for a more powerful generator. Schiedel solved the dual challenge of lack of space and strict noise standards with smart engineering and acoustic measures.

Schiedel ran a competition when introducing the GARDEN FIREPLACE concept in the UK market. The competition was launched nationally with designers submitting a concept to show off the GARDEN FIREPLACE in different settings. The project would be recorded from design through assembly to final completion. The best designs submitted would win the prize of the GARDEN FIREPLACE supplied to the site.

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.

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.
