DOW Chemical flexibility in crossflow finishing booths design

Envirosystems Group, LLC (ESG) can now add another name to its client list.  Michigan-based Dow Chemical Group recently chose the company to assist in their internal manufacturing plant air control initiatives.  Envirosystems provided two laminar crossflow finishing booths to be implemented alongside DOW’s in house dust collection processes.

Because Envirosystems Group and DOW worked together in defining the need and coordinating the best solution. ESG was able to provide customized laminar booths. One of the unique features of the two structures is the full sliding front entry doors with glass windows for viewing in and out.

"This is another case where we really excel, we are quick to adapt to our customers needs and our flexibility in the way we design and build our equipment gives us multiple advantages over our competitors,” said Shane Fausel CEO of Envirosystems Group.  “If a customer needs a specialized solution for their dust collection, blast equipment, or finishing booth requirements, chances are we can provide it. We are proud to have customers like Dow Chemical who rely on our quality and commitment.”

The Importance of Dust Collection Systems

Dust collection Systems can become important parts of a company's environmental safety and industrial hygiene program.

One of the important factors companies should keep in mind is health risk.  Inhaling hazardous dust created through certain work environments can develop into respiratory illnesses.

Without an efficient dust collection system, much of the contaminated air can cause irritation to an uncovered skin surface. Providing a dust collection system fit for machinery as will keep the work environment air virtually dust free.

Unlike the typical office environment, the air inside a manufacturing facility may contain particulates, gases and vapors or a combination of these contaminants. As a result, the atmosphere can become hazardous and even lethal.

Recently, Envirosystems Group helped *Bombardier Aerospace –The world’s third largest civil aircraft manufacturer– Mexico with their industrial hygiene efforts by providing four custom production booths. Bombardier Aerospace Mexico, had a need for four separate finishing booths in order to provide positive air quality during the aircraft paint process.

The first was a Paint Booth, a Paint Prep Booth, a Dust Collection Booth for Trimming and Drilling of composite parts and structure, and the fourth booth was a Blast Booth.

Envirosystems Group listened to the customers requirements, designed the booths and equipment to handle those requirements, installed all booths and equipment, and trained the staff on all aspects of the booths.
