Extraction for shipbuilding

High quality fume extraction and filtration solutions designed to protect employees’ health from the first weld, to the launch of the ship.

Introduction to fume control for shipbuilding processes

The naval industry processes generate a large amount of dust and fumes that are harmful for the operators’ health. It’s essential to prevent shipbuilding industry workers from being exposed to these fine particles in order to avoid any safety risk. The best way to protect them, while ensuring your productivity, is by using the right fume extraction and filtration solution for each specific process and working condition.

Challenges with shipbuilding fumes and dust

Shipbuilding presents unique fume extraction challenges, compared to other industries.
First of all, all shipbuilding processes involve welding or metalworking operations, which generate very dangerous fumes for the workers.
Long-term exposure to weld fumes and particulates can leads to serious health consequences, from major respiratory problems to multiple types of cancer.
Another challenge of the shipbuilding industry is working in small and confined places, as well as on incredibly large surfaces. This requires the need for a vast range of fume extraction solutions that will ensure the same high efficiency in very different conditions.

Coral USA solutions for shipbuilding dust and fumes

Coral USA can provide a wide range of high-quality filtration and extraction systems that can meet any specific requirements of the shipbuilding industry.
Our portable extraction units are the ideal solution to capture harmful fumes, dust or smoke directly at the source, in different locations of your facility. They are equipped with Coral patented design extraction arms, which ensure maximum flexibility and smooth mobility.
For applications that demand a higher workload, Coral USA offers stationary extraction and collection systems with either cartridge filters or sleeve filters. Plus, they are modular and customizable according to air-flow and pollutants.
Finally, our extraction bench is designed to capture welding fumes and dust directly at the source, protecting the operator’s health.
