Discover an extensive selection of high-quality extraction solutions and products for welding and coating projects.

Extraction technology plays an important role in welding processes. It not only ensures the safety of workers, but also contributes to environmental protection and helps companies to comply with legal regulations. Investing in a good fume extraction system is not only a legal necessity, but also a moral and ethical obligation for any company involved in welding.

Types of harmful emissions during welding
Welding can produce various types of hazardous emissions, including

Metal fumes
Gases such as carbon monoxide and ozone
Particulate matter
Volatile organic compounds (VOCs)
Exposure to these elements can lead to health problems such as respiratory problems, skin irritation and even long-term illnesses such as cancer.

The importance of exhaust technology
Worker safety
Worker safety is of paramount importance in any industrial environment. Effective fume extraction systems remove harmful fumes and particles from the work area, reducing the health risks associated with welding.

Environmental aspects
Good extraction technology not only protects workers, but also plays a crucial role in protecting the environment. Modern systems can filter out harmful substances and ensure that they are not released into the atmosphere.

Compliance with legal regulations
In many countries, there are strict guidelines for emissions from industrial processes. Appropriate exhaust systems help companies to comply with these regulations and thus avoid legal consequences and possible fines.

Components of an exhaust gas system for welding
Fume extraction systems
These are special systems that capture welding fumes at source. Depending on the requirements, they can be portable or permanently installed.

Filters
High efficiency particulate air filters (HEPA filters) or activated carbon filters can capture particles and gases, making them an important component of any fume extraction system.

Ventilation systems
Proper ventilation is essential for the effective removal of vapors and gases. This often involves a combination of natural and mechanical ventilation systems.
