Achieve 70 % less welding dust with industrial air purification

Clean air isn’t a luxury, it’s a necessity

Despite the importance of welding, working conditions in the industry are often very tough, with long hours in a dark, hazy, nasty and dusty environment. There is dirt is everywhere, settling on products, machinery and on welders and their coworkers themselves. Continued exposure to welding fume can cause nausea and dizziness in the short term, and lung damage and various types of cancer in the longer term. In addition, welders are increasingly forced to find new ways of doing their jobs faster and in the most cost-effective way, making their job very stressful. 

Implications of poor air quality

No matter where you are in the world, poor air quality can result in increased staff complaints, absenteeism and high staff turnover, as well as a poor corporate image. However, there are specific welding regulations that companies should be aware of.

In the UK, the result of bad air quality can have dire consequences for your business. The Health and Safety Executive (HSE) will no longer accept any welding undertaken without any suitable exposure control measures in place. If health and safety inspections by the HSE show that this is not fully complied with, the HSE has the right to fine or prosecute businesses. This is in addition to claims that may be brought by workers who are able to demonstrate their working environment does not meet the required standards and so caused them health issues.
