Eximo still sucks…after all these years

  • Published: 23/09/2009

EXIMO has been selling its air extraction technology for twenty years, and in that time, the company says it would be hard to quantify just how many cubic metres of contaminant-ridden air the company’s ducting technology has actually removed.

Suffice to say from an occupational health and safety perspective, every granule of removed dust, grit or welding flux has been well worth it, says Eximo General Manager Melissa Phelps.

Air contamination within any production process can and will lead to product recalls, production losses, financial imposts, a fall in consumer confidence, possible regulatory penalties and not to mention the potential and far-reaching implications on worker safety, says Phelps.

“Add to that the possibility of litigation and the associated bad publicity, then the air we breathe when we work takes on a whole new dimension”, she points out.

Phelps claims the company has become something of a by-word in the mining industry for its ability to not only clean the air, but also to be able to customise its designs to fit into any industrial process imaginable.

For many Australian companies, although ducting technology was hardly unknown, up until now, the costs associated with managing their air quality have been high, requiring numerous inputs from specialist consultants, maintenance companies and equipment suppliers.

Moreover, if not done correctly, managing and coordinating this effort can turn into a time consuming and costly task.

But Phelps says that these costs can be easily mitigated and the potential for product contamination or worker injury can be greatly minimised by the use of efficient, well-designed and cost-effective ducting, along with the years of accumulated expertise from a company such as Eximo.

And she notes, that by employing a company like Eximo, with over two decades of experience behind it, is a sure way to know the job of air cleaning will be done properly.

“With Eximo, you are not just buying our proven ducting technology—you also are getting our intellectual property as well—two decades of accumulated industry knowledge and experience that will serve you in good stead for many years to come”, Phelps concludes.
