Choosing the Right Vacuum for the Job

Industrial settings require more than routine cleaning, making the choice of vacuum equipment an important consideration for workplace safety and operational efficiency.

Using the wrong type of vacuum can have consequences beyond reduced cleaning performance. It may contribute to airborne dust, higher maintenance requirements, lower productivity and, in some environments, significant health and safety hazards.

This is particularly relevant when dealing with combustible dust or cleaning in ATEX-classified hazardous areas. Standard commercial or industrial vacuums are not designed for these applications and should not be used in such environments.

Instead, ATEX-certified industrial vacuums are specifically engineered for use in ATEX-zoned areas and are the recommended solution for the safe collection of combustible dust. Selecting the appropriate equipment can help businesses improve workplace safety, maintain regulatory compliance and minimise the risk of dust ignition.

From collecting hazardous dust, recovering oil or coolant to handling everyday industrial cleaning tasks, AES offer a range of Kerstar vacuum solutions designed to meet the demands of different working environments.
