Protecting Young Lungs

Protecting children from air pollution is critical. The UNSW Sydney’s School of Built Environment reports that “Pollutant exposure during developmental stages may produce lifelong issues such as respiratory infections and upper and lower airways disorders”, and “low ventilation rates raise the concentration of […] contaminants in a classroom environment, such as emissions from the building materials and furniture and particulate matter from indoor/outdoor sources.” Ventilation is not enough: fume and dust extraction in schools needs to be efficient and safe.

Luckily, Ebcam Dust+Fume supply the world’s safest dust filters from Denmark-based JKF; our SUPERSAFE Modular Filters conform to ATEX Equipment Directive 2014/34/EU. The unique VFV™ technology means that, in the unlikely event of an explosion, force is pushed up through the roof of the filter while any flames or dust is contained inside – meaning no risk of fireballs being emitted from the side panels. With our modular ducting system, additions such as extra fans, silencers, fume hoods and more can be added to customise the fume extraction system to your technology classrooms, and anywhere else that dust extraction is needed.
