Warehouses store more than just goods. Dust, dirt and harmful particles are more the rule than the exception for logistics management companies. Besides truck traffic, sources of dust include goods handling, sorting machines, street dust, and outdoor air pollution and pollen. Bacteria, dust, viruses and harmful particles in the air can cause itchy eyes, headaches, blocked noses and can give rise to asthma and irritation of the respiratory tract.
Poor IAQ control can also affect the goods stored inside warehouses. With stock moved on a daily basis, stored components and other items soon gather dust. This can pose the risk of damage when the components undergo further processing and even reduce your production yield rate.
Moreover, it is crucial to protect conveyor belts and packing areas from these contaminants to ensure smooth operation. Equally important is safeguarding sensitive areas such as robot warehouses that rely on optical sensors for functionality. These high-tech zones require stringent measures against particulate interference to maintain optimal performance.
By effectively removing harmful particles, especially those as small as PM1, well-being and productivity improve, thereby reducing sick leave.
High air changes per hour (ACH) decrease the need for cleaning and reduce maintenance requirements, leading to less downtime, saving both time and money.
Industrial air cleaners with long-lasting filters offer the best total cost of ownership (TCO), leading to energy savings.
Reduces risk of damage to product from dust, dirt and harmful particles.
Air cleaners extend the lifespan of products, leading to greater customer satisfaction and fewer claims from end-users.
