Client need

Tiremaster resurfaces commercial tires to extend their usefulness. In the tire retreading, exceptionally fine rubber particulate becomes suspended in the air creating a health hazard for employees. The presence of microplastics in human lung tissue was demonstrated in the 1990s by scientists investigating lung tissue of cancer patients. Research showed that particles might persist in the lungs, especially in people with lung disease. When particles would remain in the lungs, they likely stay there for a long time because they are bio-persistent, which could cause inflammation. It also matters how long the fibres are because longer fibres appear more damaging. Tiremaster needed to find an air cleaning solution to protect their employees from this airborne hazard.

Surgically Clean Air solution

Surgically Clean Air installed a single EcoAir, with its 15,500 cubic feet per minute capability, to offer a real complete air change every hour within the 30,000 square foot facility.

Results

After installing EcoAir, the particulate was sufficiently removed from the air, and the client ‘loves’ Surgically Clean Air.
