In many manufacturing, foodservice, or healthcare facilities, there is a risk of air contamination by toxins. There are many different types of toxins that can get into the air, with many having adverse side effects. Protect your clients and employees, and choose professional air quality testing from the PROAC Corporation.
Types Of Toxins Found In The Air
Depending on your specific industry, there are a wide variety of toxic compounds that can compromise your air’s quality. Some of these are:
- Heavy Metals: In many manufacturing plants, heavy metals are a byproduct of different processes. Metals like lead, mercury, chromium, and nickel can be released into the air. Without proper ventilation, these pollutants can cause nausea, vomiting, muscle weakness, and chest pain.
- Asbestos: Especially found in older buildings, asbestos is a toxic mineral found in insulation and roofing materials. If asbestos gets into the lungs, it can cause serious illnesses like mesothelioma and lung cancer.
- Radon: Radon is an invisible gas that is radioactive. You can’t smell or taste it, making it extremely difficult to detect without specialized equipment. Radon is a serious concern, as it is the second leading cause of lung cancer, behind smoking
