The workplaces at Discom are spacious, the production halls have high ceilings and people do not need to work in close proximity to one another. Personal protective equipment is in use, but Discom nevertheless strives continuously to make conditions more comfortable, and took the decision to optimise air quality. One of the advisors at Euromate carried out air measurements before offering advice on what improvements could be made. In thefirst instance, the two linked production halls were equipped with four HF air cleaners. After installation, measures indicated that air pollution had been reduced by 60 to 70%. An additional two air cleaners were purchased for the third production hall, used for stainless steel processing.
Discom also operates a site in Romania, which has since also been equipped with HF air cleaners. The fumes that are suspended in the air have since disappeared, something that has been well received by employees.
For one employee who suers from COPD, installation of air cleaners was a very welcome improvement. Now that the air quality has been improved, he is able to work in all parts of the production hall without experiencing any anxiety-related complaints.
