Steel & aluminum

Volume is the defining feature. Steel and aluminum processing generates fume and dust at rates that expose any shortcut taken in duct sizing within the first month.

What we design for

  • Mill and melt fume at high temperature and high volume
  • Cutting, grinding and finishing dust across large floor areas
  • Aluminum fines, which are combustible and require dedicated handling
  • Long duct runs where static pressure loss compounds

How we approach it

Aluminum dust is not steel dust. Mixing them into one collection system is a serious hazard, and it is a mistake we have seen designed into existing plants. Segregating those streams is a design decision made at the start or paid for later.

Every system is sized to your process rather than pulled from a catalog. We supply the collector, fabricate the ductwork and hoods in our own shop, and handle the mechanical install in-house — one crew from drawing to start-up.
