You wouldn’t choose to breathe in toxins and contaminants by choice.
So, it’s not fair to cause your employees to do so.
With Breathing Air Quality Testing from Fumex, you can ensure that the air your workers breathe is clean and safe, ensuring their ongoing health.
If your work processes involve the use of introduced air or ventilation systems, for example into a sealed area or into a personal mask, you need to ensure the air is clean.
The air needs to be free of contaminants such as dust, debris, fibres, and poisonous gases.
Breathing air quality testing analyses the air being fed to your employees and determines whether it may be damaging to their health.
Workplaces where this is applicable include spray booths, welding and metal fabricators, sawmillers, wood processors, and industrial cleaners.
Confined spaces, in particular, should have their breathing air supply tested before and during work, as stipulated in the Confined Spaces Regulations 1997.
