Design and Development

MI-Flues pride themselves on their ability to provide custom made pieces. From the start of the project we work in conjunction with the customer to ensure complete satisfaction. We test, manufacture and supply specialist flues for our client’s requirements. We can create products from the client’s drawings/samples or they can work together with our technical personnel.

We have the ability to test the performance in our state of the art research and development facility. MI Flues research and development department is fully resourced with the most up to date testing equipment. This resource is supported by highly experienced and trained staff that has an in-depth knowledge of both MI Flues capabilities and our client’s products and needs. We test all types of flue pipes and components for thermal resistance, strength, longevity, tolerance and corrosion resistance.

We provide the complete solution from concept to full production; to a client branded package ready to be delivered to the end user. This includes working closely with clients to achieve CE marking. We also take existing products and continually improve and develop them to maintain the highest quality whilst gaining additional production efficiencies.

Our client list reads like a who’s who of the top manufactures in the heating industry.
