In many manufacturing companies, combustible dust is produced from the work and materials present. Whether you manufacture food or tools or materials, the dust build-up from your product can result in hazardous working conditions, wear and tear on your machinery and an unsafe work environment.
Removing your explosive dust and cleaning the explosive dust from your manufacturing facilities are vital to your workplace’s functionality and growth. PROAC Corp provides professional explosive dust cleaning services. Our years of experience and knowledge will make sure your combustible dust is removed safely and effectively.

High Surface Cleaning For Combustible Dust
The flammable dust doesn’t just settle on prominent surfaces; it can build up in your ductwork and in the filters of your HVAC system. Dust that is on top of your ducts or over your ceiling lights is just as explosive as the dust on the ground. Contact us to clean your industrial building and remove dangerous dust buildup.
What Is Explosive Dust?
Explosive dust is a type of dust, usually a waste product within a manufacturing facility, that is explosive, combustible or flammable.
Some facilities we have worked in do not realize they have a large amount of flammable dust or combustible dust. OSHA performs combustible dust hazard analysis and requires many facilities to fill out a DHA (dust hazard analysis) every 5 years. While management may be aware of the dangers of combustible dust, many workers may be unaware, and this leaves your facilities exposed to fire hazards and dangers.
Common Facilities With Explosive Dust
There are a variety of manufacturing companies that must deal with the dangers of flammable dust; some we have helped are:
- Food Manufacturers
- Metal Manufacturing Facilities
- Chemical Manufacturers
- Pharmaceutical Manufacturing Plants
- Plastics Manufacturers
Common Dust Particulates That Are Explosive
Some of the dust and debris that are common hazards in manufacturing plants are:
- Metal dust
- Agricultural dust
- Carbon-based dust
- Food-related dust like sugar, flour, garlic powder and many more.
- Plastic dust
- Chemical Dust
Dangers of Flammable Dust In Your Facilities
The dangers of hazardous dust buildup are obvious. Your facilities can be at constant risk of a fire, an explosion that injures and burns the place to the ground, or one cigarette butt away from your facilities being closed permanently.
This is why OSHA is extremely cautious with handling explosive dust. Make sure your employees are aware of the risk and dangers of combustible dust. Cleaning combustible dust does not have to be challenging; contact us to handle your flammable dust.
