Downflow Booths Protect Food Operatives from Airborne Dusts

Listen to this article

With a high incidence of workplace risk from respiratory sensitising dusts from grains, flour, egg protein, fish protein and ingredient additives, Hosokawa Micron Ltd, a leader in containment technology has responded to food industry demands for improved and safe levels of personnel and product protection and by developing a range of modular Downflow Booths.

Capable of delivering Operator Exposure Levels of <1µg/m3 the booths also provide product protection from surrounding area contamination by creating a ‘clean processing zone’ minimizing cross contamination risk from other products or processes.

The Hosokawa Downflow Booths have been designed to meet key demands for energy efficiency, low running cost and low operating noise. Their cost effective yet flexible modular design makes them suitable for a range of applications when it is necessary to undertake processing steps outside of a closed food processing machine, such as sampling, filling or packing operations. The low running costs of the booths can be attributed in part to the incorporation of highly effective and energy efficient motors and fans.
