Dust Extraction Systems
We specialise in the design, installation and commissioning of industrial dust extraction systems across the food, chemical, paper/pulp and soft disposables industries.
Improve Product Quality, Environmental Compliance and Employee Wellbeing
An effective industrial dust extraction system is a key requirement for many manufacturing industries. Our solutions solve problems from product quality and environmental requirements, to the health, safety and wellbeing of employees.
Our tailored approach allows us to design an industrial dust extraction system based on your individual requirements. As an independent operator without ties to suppliers we offer our clients the assurance that our recommendations will always best suit the needs of the project.
We have worked on a number of complex projects, including operating under clean room and explosive atmosphere conditions.
We design in accordance with the American Conference of Governmental Industrial Hygienists (ACGIH), a world-renowned authority, which is recognised by the HSE.
This major toilet tissue manufacturer was experiencing fugitive dust issues and approached us due to our expertise in wet scrubber systems and tissue dust. Our survey process identified the cause as a change in production needs and we designed an alternative system in line with their ATEX/DSEAR requirements
LEV systems
A correctly designed and installed Local Exhaust Ventilation (LEV) system is one of the most critical components in protecting the health of your employees and is crucial to fulfilling your COSHH obligations.
At FEG we install, design and commission fit-for-purpose LEV systems that include effective hood design, ductwork systems and heat recovery & recirculation systems, providing cost-effective and reliable solutions from contaminant source to safe and efficient extraction.
- Design, manufacture and supply of full LEV dust and fume extraction systems
- LEV systems for the soft disposables industry
- Paper dust control
- COSHH and HSE compliance
- Extraction hood design
Dust-in-air surveys
High levels of dust in the workplace are a major health and safety concern. They pose a serious risk to the health and wellbeing of employees, as well as a fire and explosion hazard.
FEG conducts workplace dust monitoring, including personal dust monitoring, to measure exposure levels and check against HSE guidelines.
Unlike many survey providers, our expertise allows us to understand the practical application behind the results and provide recommendations.
Typical applications
- Industrial dust and fume
- Paper, pulp and soft disposables dust
- Chemical and pharmaceutical dust
- Food manufacturing
- Bakery dust and flour
- Automotive body shop dust

Our client was experiencing repeated cracked ductwork and had invested in several consultants to resolve the issue without a solution. We identified the issue as a mixing of inappropriate material specifications and re-designed and installed new ductwork under restrictive budget and timescales, working within an active power facility.
