Downdraught bench solves dust issue
13 March 2019
When Lyndon Design needed help with a dust issue, AirBench provided a solution.

Lyndon Design manufactures stylish furniture, typically supplying to the hospitality and leisure industries. It manufactures parts in a range of hardwoods and an existing sanding booth was proving insufficient to cope with the dust generated during manual sanding processes.
Following a full 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 is now a cleaner, more effective space; the Lyndon team are now happy to work within the booth. Operators have been able to move from Canister masks to paper-type P3 masks, meaning comfort (and productivity) have been greatly improved.
