Controlling Concrete Dust

Those who are exposed to dangerous dust particles in the air may be at risk of severe lung damage if the dust they are breathing is concrete dust. This post provides insight and solutions for controlling concrete dust.

Concrete dust containing crystalline silica is particularly dangerous to your health.  Reports like those produced by the US National Library of Medicine National Institutes of Health (concrete workers with chronic obstructive pulmonary symptoms and/or work-related lower respiratory symptoms are at risk of having a reduction in lung function - mild chronic obstructive pulmonary disease) and individuals with concerns about the adverse effects (Toxic Concrete Dust - Silicosis) of concrete dust can help you take appropriate precautions and action to avoid breathing in an atmosphere where concrete dust is prevalent.

The award winning engineering and design company, International Precast Inc., known in the industry for manufacturing any custom precast product regardless of the complexity or size of the project, selected Envirosystems Group to supply the AirWall dust collection system along with a large open faced booth to contain concrete dust. This dust collection system will allow International Precast Inc. to work in an atmosphere where large concrete dust loads are contained in the area where people are working. The Envirosystems Group AirWall dust collection and booth system creates a much healthier and cleaner environment in the facility.
