Roxtec – innovative sealing solutions
Roxtec is the world’s largest manufacturer of modular-based cable and pipe transits for the shipbuilding
and naval industries. All over the world, shipbuilders use Roxtec sealing solutions to ensure safety,
efficiency and long-term operational reliability. Recently Roxtec acquired Sleev-it Fire Systems Ltd. and
thereby took one step further in broadening its product range.
Roxtec was founded in Sweden in 1990 with the invention of Multidiameter™, a flexible solution based
on sealing modules with removable layers. It revolutionized the complicated process of cable and pipe
installation, allowing designers and users to perform their tasks without knowing the size or number of
cables in advance. The solution enables sealing of cables and pipes of various sizes and materials,
which minimizes the need for different parts and reduces installation time. It makes planning easier and
simplifies the work of designers and installers.
Modular-based cable and pipe seals
The Roxtec sealing system is a modular-based mechanical sealing solution. It is available for various
applications – and for multiple as well as single pipe penetrations. With six basic sealing blocks, it is
possible to seal cables and pipes from 4mm to 99mm in diameter. The sealing modules are inserted
around the cables or pipes in frames that are either welded or bolted into the structure. The frames are
available in different shapes, materials and sizes for different applications. The system is then sealed
with a compression unit, a Roxtec wedge, or an integrated compression unit, which tightly compresses
the modules.
For cables, steel pipes and plastic pipes
The Roxtec sealing system is used to seal all types of penetrating cables, steel pipes and plastic pipes
passing through bulkheads and decks, in and between different sections and constructions such as
machine rooms, storage rooms, living compartments and the bridge. It is also used in various types of
cabinets and enclosures. Roxtec seals ensure protection against, for example, fire, water, gas and
electro-magnetic interference. The system is well suited for sealing of hydraulic pipes, since the rubber
absorbs vibrations. It is a flexible and high quality sealing system designed to withstand very tough
conditions.
Tested and certified
Roxtec products are tested and approved for use in A class and H class-rated sections according to
IMO Resolution A.754 (18) and SOLAS. The Roxtec sealing system is also approved according to
different military standards in various countries. Roxtec products are certified by a wide range of
classification societies such as Lloyd’s, ABS, Bureau Veritas and DNV.

Roxtec benefits
Fast deliveries and local support: Roxtec is present worldwide to ensure product availability and local
service and support
Quick and easy installation: there is no need to know the exact dimension of each cable, because as
each module can handle a variety of cable sizes, the installations can be finished right away; the wedge,
which is used to compress the modules and close the penetration, is quick and easy to install

Capacity for future expansion: thanks to the Roxtec invention Multidiameter™, it is possible to add extra
capacity for cables and pipes from the start; new cables or pipes can easily be added without adding
any further items or any need for welding, and the seal can be re-opened and closed repeatedly without
jeopardizing integrity or safety.
Roxtec worldwide
Roxtec serves and supports customers in more than 70 markets through 21 subsidiaries and a network
of local distributors. Roxtec sales and support staff around the world help customers find the solution
that corresponds to their specific needs. The extensive R&D resources of Roxtec, with design
departments and test labs, give the company an opportunity to continuously perform tests, develop
products and improve solutions.
Roxtec acquires Sleev-It
The recent acquisition of Sleev-it Fire Systems Ltd. extends the Roxtec product range and makes
Roxtec even stronger as supplier. Through the integration of Sleev-It, Roxtec has added light-weight fire
penetration seals to its product portfolio. Roxtec can now offer more fire penetration seals, transition
collars and other solutions for plastic pipes and become more complete as provider of sealing solutions.
Roxtec can thereby further help shipyards with new builds as well as retrofit projects. Roxtec marine
penetration seals cover the needs of the entire ship, from below the waterline up to the passengers’
cabins.

Systemair
The company was founded in 1974 with a pioneering idea of the circular in-line centrifugal duct fan,
which simplified ventilation ducting. Our motto became “The straight way”, and this has now extended
from a product concept to a business philosophy. Our range has grown substantially to include fans, air
curtains and heating products. With our customers in focus our core values are quality, availability and
the ability to deliver on time, every time. With these our mission is with simplicity and reliability; develop,
manufacture and market energy efficient ventilation products. From the beginning our company reported
an operating profit every year since the start. During the last 10 years, our average annual growth in net
sales has been 15 percent. We have never been afraid of investing in development and acquisitions – it
is an important part of our success and makes us long-term competitive.
Our focus is on developing innovative and energy efficient products – that are easy to select and simple
to install and maintain. Systemair’s range has been continuously developed and divides in two product
areas, comfort ventilation and safety ventilation.
Comfort ventilation comprises fans, air handling units, products for air distribution, air curtains and
heating products. Safety ventilation comprises fire safety as well as garage and tunnel ventilation.
Today buildings account for about 40 percent of total energy usage in Europe. Ventilation of buildings
accounts for a significant portion of this energy, in the form of energy for operating fans and the losses
when heated air is exhausted and replaced with cold air. One of the targets in the Eu climate and
energy package is for energy efficiency to increase 20 percent by the year 2020. To reach that target,
requirements for existing buildings and new construction will be steadily tightened. it will become
compulsory to build “climate-smart” and to take into account each building’s energy consumption after
renovation. Climate-smart buildings are near-zero energy buildings, which mean energy saving
buildings that largely use renewable energy and so called passive houses, without traditional heating
systems. In both cases, buildings are built as airtight as possible, which makes stringent demands on
efficient ventilation. For several years, our strategy has been to develop energy efficient products with
built-in energy recovery and fans using EC technology to make up a portfolio that fully satisfies the
requirements of today and tomorrow.
The group manufactures products in 14 production facilities in Europe, north America and Asia, with a
total manufacturing floor space of 190,000 m2. These are modern plants that we continuously update
and expand to maintain the high quality of machinery and equipment. Two of Systemair’s facilities are
located in Sweden, including our main facility located in Skinnskatteberg. Our other facilities are located
in Denmark, Norway, Germany, Lithuania, Slovenia, Slovakia, Spain, India, Malaysia, USA and Canada.
Systemair puts significant assets on development of energy efficient, environment friendly and user
friendly ventilation products. We have five development centers located in Sweden, Germany, Canada,
Slovakia and the U.S. at our disposal, and our more than 80 engineers form 13 development teams on
three continents all working with product development. With our broad geographic reach, we can
carefully follow current trends in various parts of the world. We also actively influence future trends by
taking part in the specification of new International and national standards. The development centre in
Skinnskatteberg is one of Europe’s most modern facilities for measuring air flow, sound levels and
energy consumption. One of the facilities in the centre is an acoustic room, with background noise
levels lower than what the human ear can perceive it also includes a climate chamber with the
possibility to simulate outdoor temperatures down to –20°C. The centre is accredited by AMCA (air
movement and Control association international, Inc) for measuring of air and acoustic performance.
In our strategy, availability is a key dimension of our competitive advantage. We hold stock of a
considerable part of our range and can deliver within 24 hours from local stock in Europe and from our
central warehouses within 72 hours. The Group has built up an efficient production and logistical
organization in which the centralized and local warehousing facilities are integrated with each other via
the shared ERP system. In this way, we can capitalize on the advantages in volume because our
factories specialize in different product areas.
We have managed well compared to many of our competitors and boosted our market shares on
several markets. The growth initiatives have continued, through company acquisitions. Our aim is to
achieve long-term international growth. As the emphasis on the indoor environment has grown, the
group has sharpened its market strategy vis-à-vis ventilation contractors, distributors and consultants in
the indoor climate sector. The group has a wide customer base with customers of different sizes in
many markets. We sell to 100 countries in the world. The 10 biggest customers currently accounts for 7
percent of sales. This broad and geographically diverse customer base offers considerable stability and
reduces our exposure to fluctuations in individual economies. The group’s customers are primarily
ventilation contractors and distributors of ventilation and electrical products. Ventilation consultants are
another key target group indirectly, as they specify the products to be installed.

The research and development of a very efficient oil cleaning technique started in the beginning of the
80:s with the innovator & founder Aegir Björnsson.
He had a vision of a unique oil cleaning system which would save both money and the environment by
making used oil as clean as or even cleaner than new oil.
This spirit still shines through our company. Our aim is to keep the environment clean with less oil
waste, and to keep your processes clean. As a result of this, you can increase your availability, so that
you can make more money and save more money at the same time – always with a good support and
service from us.
With Europafilter’s cleaning systems, oil consumption can be reduced by up to 90%. This also means
90% less environmental impact regarding poisonous discharged oil.
By installing an oil cleaning system from Europafilter the company will not only make an instant financial
saving, but will also be blessed with a good environmental conscience. Each positive environmental
action that we undertake increases the possibilities of bringing about developments and leaving a better
environment as an inheritance for our children and grandchildren.
