Using effective welding fume extraction is the safest and most efficient way to protect welders from hazardous fumes. Source extraction systems remove fumes where they're created and help to reduce welding fumes in the entire workshop.
Even if you're based in North America, now’s a good time to make sure your fume control measures still meet today’s safety standards – and Plymovent is here to help.
There are many health risks associated with the exposure to vehicle exhaust emissions. Every time a vehicle is operating the engine emits tiny fragments of particulate matter and invisible gasses such as carbon monoxide. Often when maintaining or repairing automobiles a mechanic will be required to operate them indoors. When operating a vehicle indoors the exhaust emissions should be removed to prevent exposure of both employees and customers to these tiny fragments and gasses. As an example, extremely high concentrations of carbon monoxide produced by a vehicle’s engine can reach toxic levels within a matter of minutes inside a closed building.
