Fulton will be using BeerX to promote its class-leading range of steam boilers and portfolio of aftercare solutions, all designed to help with the latest decarbonisation strategies adopted by breweries and distilleries.
While Fulton will continue to promote the many features and benefits of its fuel-fired VSRT vertical steam boiler and Europack and Electropack range of electric steam boilers, the company will also be showcasing its VSRT-E hybrid steam boiler.
The objectives of steam raising plant are straightforward: to release the energy in the input fuel as efficiently as possible, to transfer that energy to water to generate steam, and to separate the steam from the water for use in processes requiring heat energy.
In this short piece, Fulton’s UK Sales & Export Manager Dave Dolan looks at how the suitability of hybridisation with gas and electric energy sources depends greatly on the design and operational characteristics of the equipment, particularly in differentiating between steam boilers and steam generators.

Fulton, the leading manufacturer of fuel-fired and electrically-powered heat transfer solutions, is proud to announce that its revolutionary VSRT vertical steam boiler has been awarded hydrogen-ready status, the only vertical steam boiler to achieve it, and a significant milestone in the company's commitment to sustainable and future-proof technologies
Introduced in 2018, the VSRT is the world's first fully-wetted, refractory-free vertical tubeless steam boiler, representing a paradigm shift in industrial steam boiler design. Incorporating Fulton's patented spiral rib heat exchanger technology, the VSRT boasts outputs from 160 to 1,956 kg/h, industry-leading efficiencies, exceptional steam quality, and a compact footprint, making it an ideal choice for a wide range of applications.
Leading heat transfer specialist Fulton is pleased to announce the appointment of Dave Dolan as its new UK & Export Sales Manager. With extensive industry knowledge and experience, Dave Dolan brings a wealth of expertise to this crucial role.
Commenting for Fulton, Managing Director Carl Knight says: “Fulton looks forward to leveraging Dave’s expertise in managing a sales force, bringing new steam boiler solutions to market, and tackling the challenges of the export market, further solidifying Fulton's position as a leader in heat transfer solutions.”.
In this article, Fulton managing director Carl Knight delves into the importance of BG13 and the insights it provides into how to ensure the safe operation of electric powered steam boilers.
Guidance for the Safe Operation of Electrically Powered Steam Boilers (Ref: BG13) is a guidance document intended to assist the managers, designers, operators, maintenance personnel and Competent Persons (CP) of new and existing steam boiler systems. Developed and written by the Combustion Engineering Association (CEA) and in consultation with other stakeholders – like Fulton – within the steam boiler industry. It serves as a vital resource to those named and addresses key issues including design, installation, safe operation, maintenance requirements, and compliance with legal standards.

Heat transfer specialist Fulton is delighted to have had membership of the Industrial & Commercial Heating Equipment (ICOM) accepted.
The Industrial & Commercial Heating Equipment Association (ICOM) is a not-for-profit trade association for the non-domestic heating sector. It works closely with governments, professional bodies and associations at National and European level, with its work generating tangible benefits for members and instrumental in the development of product and installation standards.
