Dust Solutions

 

The workplace, especially those working in confined spaces or on refurbishment and demolition works, can present a major risk to health from exposure to airborne dust which may contain crystalline silica.

This can result in serious and life limiting diseases such as silicosis, fibrosis and lung cancer.

In accordance with the requirements of the Control of Substances Hazardous to Health Regulations 2002 as amended (COSHH), control measures must be in place to reduce the impact of any dust created within worksites.

We have spent many years developing innovative dust management solutions. Our qualified consultants and technologists deliver a full range of dust management and on site monitoring.
