Combustible Dust

Resolution®‘s EHS/IH experts conduct combustible dust assessments and surveys designed to assist your site in preventing and eliminating hazards. To help your site maintain combustible dust standards, the Resolution® EHS team will focus on three main aspects: Capture, Clean, and Contain.

Implementing preventative controls is one of the most effective ways to minimize employee exposure. When dealing with combustible dust, there are multiple different potential materials. The most common of these are metal dust, agricultural products, and plastics. Combustible dust can be the cause of and fuel for industrial fires or explosions. In 2021, it was reported that 13% of fires occurred in dust collectors.

To reduce concerns about potential on-site combustible dust, Resolution®‘s EHS team can help provide support in sampling and reporting suspected material. Our team can assist in the implementation of that plan and periodically monitor your facility to help maintain compliance with OSHA standards.
