Industrial dust extractors for your facility

What industrial dust extractors solve – and what they leave behind

Industrial dust extractors remove particles at the point of release – during sawing, grinding, packaging, sanding and countless other industrial processes. But not all dust is heavy enough to settle

Fine and ultrafine particles become airborne. They drift into walkways, settle on stock, disrupt sensors and worst of all – get breathed in.

This is where an industrial air cleaning system takes over. It continuously filters the air volume of your entire space – quietly, efficiently and without adding strain to your extraction.

Industrial air cleaning – for total dust removal across your facility

Complete air solution

Complements your industrial dust extractor to remove airborne dust across your entire facility.

Captures the invisible

Eliminates what source extraction misses – including fine particles like PM2.5 and ultrafine dust.

Compliance made easy

Supports ISO, HSE and customer audit requirements – while improving and maintaining consistent, long-term air quality.

Why add industrial air cleaning to your dust removal setup?

Zehnder air purifiers work across your space, not just at individual machines. They integrate seamlessly into your production or logistics hall and filter what the dust extractors leave behind.

The result of flawless dust removal? Fewer complaints, fewer clean-ups, stronger audit outcomes. And a facility that looks, feels and performs like it should.

A rental solution that works with your extraction – not against it

The right filter setup makes your industrial air cleaner work harder

Choosing the right filter is key to effective industrial air cleaning. Zehnder systems use a combination of pre-filters, fine dust filters and specialist filter classes to capture everything from coarse dust to ultrafine particles.

Flimmer filters

Thousands of polypropylene fibres attract and trap airborne dust electrostatically – without restricting airflow. Best used as pre-filters, they extend the life of secondary filters and deliver long-term efficiency.

Pocket filters

With deep dust holding capacity, pocket filters are perfect for handling heavy dust loads. They trap airborne particles across multiple filter pockets and can be combined with other filters in multi-stage setups.

Compact filter and HEPA filters

From coarse dust to the tiniest PM1 particles, these filters deliver final-stage protection – removing the most harmful ultrafine contaminants. Our HEPA options go up to H14 class for maximum clean air performance.

"We thought our dust extraction was enough – it wasn’t. Before Zehnder, we had LEV in place and thought we were covered. But airborne dust kept settling on everything – even after deep cleans. It felt like a losing battle. Since installing the air cleaners, we’ve seen a visible difference and measurable results. The system catches what our extractors miss – and gives us real peace of mind for health, quality and audits."

Clean air pays off – in more ways than one

Healthier staffLess exposure to fine and ultrafine particles means fewer sick days and a safer, more attractive workplace.

Longer machine lifeCleaner air reduces dust build-up inside sensitive equipment – lowering maintenance and extending service life.

Consistent product qualityAirborne dust and fibres are kept away from production lines, reducing defects and protecting surface finishes.

Easier auditsStay ready for health and safety inspections with documented air quality and particle data at your fingertips.

Lower cleaning costsLess dust settling on surfaces means fewer hours spent on manual cleaning – and fewer chemicals used.

Cleaner reputationCustomers, partners and certifiers notice when your facility is genuinely clean, safe and well-managed.

FAQs on industrial dust extractors and industrial air cleaning

What’s the difference between an industrial dust extractor and an air cleaning system?

A dust extractor removes particles at the source – like during grinding or cutting. An industrial air cleaner removes the fine and ultrafine particles that stay airborne and circulate throughout your facility.

When will we see the benefits of industrial air purification systems?

In most cases, immediately. Within days, dust levels drop, the air is cleared – and Zehnder provide real-time measurements to prove it.

Do I need both a dust extractor and an air cleaner?

In most industrial environments – yes. Extractors can't catch every particle, especially light or suspended dust. Industrial air cleaning systems remove what extraction misses.

What happens if I rely on industrial dust extractors alone?

Fine particles stay in circulation, settle on products, sensors and surfaces, increase cleaning effort and create risks during audits.

Is air cleaning only needed in dusty industries?

No. Even in relatively “clean” processes, airborne particles build up over time. That includes fibres, combustion residue, packaging dust and fumes – all of which affect both health and quality.

How do I know if the air in our facility is actually clean?

We measure your particle levels before and after installation, and provide real-time monitoring via our CARA system (Clean Air Remote Application). You’ll always have the data to prove your air quality.

Which industries use Zehnder’s air cleaning systems?

Our dust removal solutions are used across metalworking, food, logistics, plastics, wood, and general manufacturing – any place where airborne dust affects health, quality or productivity.
