As modern life advances and technology develops hand in hand, our understanding of science grows. With this we identify the harsh reality of harmful effects upon our planet and well being.

Roflow acknowledge the environmental responsibility placed upon industry and the dilemma of balancing company profitability. Today’s markets are highly competitive and demand optimum efficiency alongside improved quality whilst operating within the constraints of environmental legislation.

The COSHH regulations 1988 and EPA Act 1990 are two firmly established legislative frameworks which regulate and monitor our environment. They combine in the application of industrial ventilation and process equipment selection. Collectively the regulations are in place to control human exposure to hazardous substances from work activities and to further limit their impact upon our environment. It is the duty of the company where such substances are used to comply with assessment and conformity to relevant operational standards.

Pollution control and in particular industrial dust and fume control represent the largest proportion of work undertaken by Roflow. The expertise and service of Roflow are best demonstrated in this particular field.

By providing impartial consultation and working together in evaluation Roflow can engineer innovative solutions which are manageable, compliant, and economically justifiable.Many manufacturing facilities require dedicated custom designed LEV (local exhaust ventilation) systems or extraction plant to remove generated dust or fume from personnel and process equipment.

Correct system design requires an understanding of the operation in question. It must be effective in controlling the atmospheric contamination as well as fulfilling any environmental legislation governing the process. More critical applications may require stricter methods of abatement in order to be fully compliant. Good design essentially controls the contaminant with the minimum amount of air flow and power consumption for the plant.

Upon design and selection of equipment Roflow are supported by in house planning, detail and manufacturing which enable full control of quality, specification and timing plan schedules.
