    Transforming Air Quality in a Steel Plant Process

    integratedAIR Systems was approached by Marcegaglia UK, the largest steel manufacturer in Great Britain, to address persistent air quality issues arising from its tundish wrecking process. The client had been experiencing significant dust and fume emissions during tundish rotation, particularly in a small waste room below the operation. These emissions affected the working conditions for operatives and contributed to wider contamination across the melt shop and warehouse. The client requested a dedicated extraction system to contain and control these emissions, improving the environment throughout the facility.

  • Multi-Zone Hot Duct with Dust and Fume Extraction

    Case Study

    Multi-Zone Hot Duct with Dust and Fume Extraction

    integratedAIR, alongside our strategic partner DURR , was approached by a global leading canmaker for a site in Denmark operating an external regenerative thermal oxidiser (RTO) system. The client required a new RTO externally as the existing unit no longer satisfied the production requirements. Additionally, the existing ducting systems that fed into the old system had to be extended and modified whilst accommodating future capacity. With duct temperatures ranging from 70°C to 250°C across the system careful consideration had to be made to ensure high temperature ducting was properly insulated to avoid internal build-up of condensation within the ducting the challenge lay in designing a tailored system for the new hot ducting and a new fume extraction system with filter as well as relocating the existing filters to the new RTO area and changing all existing change over stacks on the roof during a set shut down period.

  • Scrap Extraction and Air Filtration System

    Case Study

    Scrap Extraction and Air Filtration System

    integratedAIR was approached by an overseas client in the Southern Hemisphere to design and install a dual-purpose system for collecting and extracting aluminium scrap from multiple trimmers and an oil mist extractor to evacuate oil fumes and improve the atmosphere at the plant. The project aimed to efficiently manage aluminium scrap from can production while ensuring compliance with environmental and safety standards. It was designed to integrate with the existing infrastructure and minimise downtime through a robust, continuously operating system.

    Case Study

    Dust and Fume Extraction System for Leading Composite Manufacturer

    integratedAIR were approached by an international company specialising in composite products for the Aerospace and Aviation Industry; recent expansion at their site in Berkshire, UK required comprehensive dust and fume extraction solutions for new CNC machinery at their facility. Our Engineers quoted for a comprehensive fume and dust extraction system integrated with an Antares CNC machine to extract carbon-based particles from the composite product and surrounding work surfaces. As well as minimising contamination of highly precise parts utilised in the Aerospace industry, this dust control system ensures a clean working environment for employees in surrounding workstations.

  • Why is dust control essential for laser and plasma cutting?

    Why is dust control essential for laser and plasma cutting?

    Both laser and plasma cutting machines use highly concentrated channels of energy to cut through a variety of materials including wood, some plastics, metal, fabrics, and rubber. Whilst some materials react well to laser and plasma cutting, others can smoke and burn, release sparks or gas, or produce toxic vapours. Laser and plasma cutting is a highly effective method of cutting a range of materials but must be practised safely, with adequate ventilation and protection put in place to control these hazards.

    Are You COSHH Compliant?

    Thousands of employees across the United Kingdom work daily within hazardous environments. Risks need to be taken seriously, which is why companies should have compliance with COSHH regulations within the workplace. Every business needs to know about the Control of Substances Hazardous to Health Regulations (COSHH). COSHH compliance laws apply to nearly every business type, from work in offices to work on construction sites, factories, warehouses, hospitals, or schools.
