People can become permanently sensitised to fumes which means that continued exposure, even to very small amounts of fume, may cause asthma attacks and the person affected may never be able to carry out that work again.

Because of this, employees should be protected by the best fume extraction systems available.

Why fume extraction is essential for personnel:
Prevents serious conditions such as occupational asthma and cancer.
Reduces absenteeism and improves employer relations.
Improves the working environment.

Why does the company need fume extraction systems?
Many industrial processes such as soldering, industrial laser processing and splicer all produce dust and fumes which are hazardous to health and which can also reduce productivity or spoil the product. Fumes can also damage expensive production equipment and cause extensive downtime for repair and/or cleaning.

Many local and international health and safety regulations require the employer to protect personnel from hazardous dust and fumes. Failure to do so can result in expensive compensation claims and fines.
