Furniture firm overcomes sanding dust issue

Furniture designer and manufacturer, Lyndon Design, is using a ducted AirBench to overcome sanding dust issues.

Established in the early 1980s, Lyndon Design is a high-end designer and manufacturer of stylish furniture that it supplies to the hospitality and leisure industries.

During its manufacturing processes, Lyndon manufactures parts in a range of hardwoods. An existing sanding booth was proving insufficient to cope with the dust generated during manual sanding processes and Lyndon approached AirBench for a solution.

Following a site survey and demonstration, AirBench recommended a large, HEPA filtered downdraught bench from its FN range, configured to discharge via ducting outside the booth.

Lyndon installed the unit using its own team. The workspace now is a cleaner, more effective space. The Lyndon team are happy to work within the booth and operators have been able to move from canister masks to paper-type P3 masks.
