This 400 x 400mm stainless steel baffle filter is a standard replacement and pack component for commercial kitchen extraction canopies. Baffle filters work by directing grease-laden air through a series of angled channels, causing grease particles to separate out and collect within the filter body rather than passing through into the ductwork. This is a fundamental part of how a canopy system manages grease extraction safely and efficiently.In a working kitchen, filters of this type take considerable punishment — heat, steam, and continuous grease loading throughout every service. Stainless steel construction handles that environment well. It resists corrosion, tolerates the high temperatures generated directly above cooking equipment, and stands up to repeated removal and cleaning without distorting or degrading over time.From an operational standpoint, keeping baffle filters in good condition directly affects the performance of the whole extraction system. A clean, undamaged filter maintains proper airflow, which in turn keeps cooking fumes and heat from building up in the kitchen. It also reduces fire risk — grease accumulation in ductwork is a recognised hazard in commercial kitchens, and the filter is the first line of defence. Easy to remove for routine cleaning or replacement during kitchen maintenance schedules Stainless steel resists grease, heat, and corrosion in demanding service environments Compatible with canopy systems designed to accept 400 x 400mm filter bays This filter suits kitchens running standard canopy extraction with a 400 x 400mm filter bay. If your canopy takes a different filter size, or you are fitting out a larger installation requiring multiple filters, it is worth checking compatibility before ordering. Our team is happy to help if you are unsure which filter or how many you need.
