Clean air optimises efficiency, compliance and safety in shipbuilding and maritime operations

Shipbuilding and maritime operations involve some of the most demanding industrial working conditions. From large-scale ship construction and block fabrication to small craft manufacturing and complex repair work inside hulls and dry docks, these environments require robust, flexible and reliable clean air solutions.

We deliver proven clean air solutions for the shipbuilding and maritime industry, supporting everything from small craft and yacht building to large-scale shipbuilding and ship repair operations. Our systems help shipyards and maritime companies maintain safe working conditions, improve productivity and meet strict environmental and occupational safety requirements.

Clean air challenges in the maritime and shipbuilding industry

Shipbuilding and maritime operations are characterised by large structures, changing work zones and a mix of open, enclosed and semi-enclosed environments. Work is often carried out across multiple levels and compartments, where airborne contaminants can accumulate unevenly and persist without targeted extraction.

Confined areas such as hulls, tanks, engine rooms and dry docks are particularly vulnerable to high concentrations of welding fumes, dust and chemical vapours. At the same time, open shipyard areas and boatbuilding halls present challenges related to dispersion, cross-contamination and energy-intensive ventilation. Without effective dust and fume control, these conditions can compromise worker safety, increase fire and explosion risks and disrupt production.
