1. WHY WE NEED DUST SUPPRESSION
SYSTEMS

2. Many contaminants get bonded to dust
particles. At homes and in the workplace, dust
suppression systems are used for the following
reasons:

3. DUST AFFECTS HUMAN HEALTH
Lab investigations show that airborne particulate matter and dust
affect the health of occupants of industrial and non-industrial
buildings.

4. AIRBORNE CONTAMINANTS ENTER LUNGS
Day care centers, offices, and schools have airborne contaminants
that fly with dust and enter the airways and lungs. The air is
scrubbed to make it safe.

5. OCULAR, NASAL AND RESPIRATORY SYMPTOMS
Reduced air quality results in ocular, nasal and respiratory
symptoms of inflammation. Dust causes inflammation of the eyes
and can damage sight.

6. DECREASE IN EFFICIENCY OF WORKERS
Performance changes take place when workers get affected by
airborne dust. They get infections of the eyes, nose, and throat.

7. DUST CAN HAVE TOXIC EFFECTS
To prevent airway infections and asthma attacks in workers the law
requires employers to have a dust suppression system in place.

8. MICROBES POSE A RISK TO HEALTH
Exposure to organic dust containing microbes leads to foam
formation and reddening of the eye besides respiratory illnesses.

9. CUSTOMIZED SOLUTIONS
Occupational environments can get air barriers and solutions
customized to meet the need of their specific architecture or
industry.

10. Due to the above reasons, all industrial
employers are required to have a dust
suppression system to protect the health of their
employees.
