CodeMark^TM Certification means Halton Products comply to Building Code of Australia  

We are extremely pleased to announce that Stoddart’s Halton range of Commercial Kitchen Exhaust Hoods have been awarded CodeMark^TM certification – meaning they are independently certified to comply with relevant clauses of the Building Code of Australia (BCA). 

Halton are the first commercial hoods with Code Mark approval, giving specifiers and certifiers complete confidence that Halton products are compliant to relevant regulations.

 Under the CodeMark^TM certification scheme, the current complete range of Halton Capture Jet Hoods and Ventilated ceiling have been independently certified under Volume 1 F4.12 of the BCA – Kitchen local exhaust ventilation.

 This section of the BCA references the relevant Australia/New Zealand Standard - AS/NZS 1668.1 and 1668.2: 1991.

 All certified Halton products will now feature a decal with the CodeMark^TM logo and Stoddart’s certificate number (SAIG-09-CM20024). This will make inspectors aware of the CodeMark certification.  

The accreditation process involved approvals of the Halton designs and performances to meet the requirements of the standard along with Stoddart’s manufacturing procedures. The company will continue to be regularly audited to ensure ongoing compliance to the CodeMark^TM certification scheme.

The addition of CodeMark^TM certification to the patented performance features of Halton make it a truly unique product in this industry. 

The Halton system extracts significantly less air from the kitchen, whilst maximizing the removal of cooking effluent, through a combination of the patented Halton Capture Jet ^TM and KSA cyclonic filters.

 This means significant savings on the set-up and running costs of the entire mechanical system, whilst reducing emissions and improving safety in the kitchen environment.
