In the fast-paced worlds of aerospace and automotive manufacturing, precision, safety, and cleanliness are non-negotiable. From 3D printing to powder coating, these industries generate fine, often hazardous dusts that demand specialist cleaning solutions. That’s where Kerstar’s ATEX-certified industrial vacuum cleaners come in.
Meeting the Demands of Modern Manufacturing
Aerospace and automotive production environments are complex, involving processes such as:
- Composite component production
- Metal fabrication
- Paint spraying
- Plastic injection moulding
- Powder coating
These operations can release explosive metallic dusts, combustible chemical particles, and polymer residues - all of which pose serious risks to both people and production. Other applications include drilling, cutting, grinding as well as extracting dust and debris directly from the tooling.
Certified Safety with ATEX Compliance
To meet the strict requirements of DSEAR (Dangerous Substances and Explosive Atmospheres Regulations), Kerstar offers a full range of UK-manufactured ATEX vacuum cleaners. These are fully certified for:
- Zones 21/22 (Dust)
- Zone 1 (Gases and Vapours)
Available in both electric and compressed air models, ensuring that every corner of a facility - no matter how hazardous - can be cleaned safely and effectively.
