Dust analysis: an important and integrated part of our combustible dust expertise

With the Nederman Innovation Centre and our extensive combustible dust expertise, based on deep and long experience of dust handling solutions, Nederman understands the risks combustible dust can pose within industrial processes. Small particles in the air, in the facilities, or in air filtration solutions, if combustible and if they come into contact with an ignition source, can be catastrophic. Many industries, including food processing, metalworking, woodworking, pharmaceuticals, paint, bulk and powder, and many others, can have a combustible dust risk, and without testing, this risk may go unnoticed until it is too late.

We recommend testing all types of dust in all types of industries.
