What is industrial dust?
Industrial dust is comprised of small, solid, and dry particles that are hazardous to workers when inhaled, swallowed, or exposed to the naked eye or skin. Industrial dust is prevalent in the mining, materials handling, quarrying and construction industries. Industrial dust can be deadly, and the necessary measures must be taken to ensure adequate dust collection in the workplace. CDC Dust Control has tailored dust collection systems used to control and reduce airborne dust particles. The importance of these solutions cannot be undermined, as several life-threatening lung diseases are the result of continued exposure to certain kinds of dust.
