This presentation is designed to help company owners, managers and supervisors understand how to improve their business by improving their indoor air quality as it relates to welding. Having inadequate or ineffective weld fume extraction /filtration is slowly killing many welding businesses and they don’t even know it. A large number of welding fabrication companies don’t employ adequate weld fume mitigation measures to ensure the quality of their indoor air. This is compounded in Canada where many facilities reduce airflow / clean air exchange for most of the year in an effort to minimize the cost of heating the buildings. The purpose of this presentation is to bring awareness to weld fume and the effects both financial and human on our industry. Weld fume, when not adequately mitigated, lowers the productivity of your employees affecting bottom line profits. Poor indoor air quality due to weld fume presents challenges in retention of skilled workers, and increases your employee’s time off ill by double. We will explore simple but effective ways to increase air quality and profitability while ensuring a high level of ROI. Weld fume extraction / filtration equipment solutions must be tailored to each individual operation. We will give a brief overview of the solutions on the market today.
