Camfil Air Pollution Control (APC), a global leader in industrial dust, fume, and mist collection, successfully assisted a woodworking company in achieving compliance with the National Fire Protection Association (NFPA) standards, showcasing its expertise in navigating complex regulatory landscapes.

Camfil APC's Brian Richardson, an expert in dust collection systems, provided crucial assistance to a woodworking company struggling to meet NFPA compliance. The company, with over 45 years of experience, faced significant challenges due to multiple system modifications and outdated practices that did not meet current NFPA standards.

Challenge and Solution:

The woodworking company's dust collection system evolved without a cohesive strategy for compliance, leading to potential safety risks and non-compliance with NFPA's stringent standards. The landlord's insurance provider required proof of compliance, adding urgency to the situation.

Camfil APC conducted a thorough analysis of the existing system and identified key areas that failed to meet NFPA 664 standards, which specifically address fire and explosion prevention in woodworking facilities. Richardson proposed a phased plan that allowed the company to continue operations without interruption while upgrades were implemented.

Innovative Strategy:

Unlike other vendors who suggested incomplete or non-compliant solutions, Camfil APC developed a strategy not only aimed for compliance, but also enhanced the overall efficiency and safety of the dust collection system. This strategy included:

  • Immediate implementation of critical safety measures to mitigate risk.
  • A timeline for systematic upgrades to the dust collection system.
  • Education for the company's staff on NFPA standards and system maintenance to ensure ongoing compliance.

Results:

The insurance provider accepted the solution provided by Camfil APC, preventing a costly shutdown of operations. The woodworking company now enjoys a fully compliant dust collection system ensuring a safer working environment and adherence to both NFPA and Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) standards.

"Our goal at Camfil APC is not just to sell products but to provide solutions that ensure our clients operate safely and comply with all relevant regulations. We are pleased to have guided our client through the complexities of NFPA compliance, ensuring its operations are safe and sustainable."
