An aircraft parts manufacturer was fined £800,000 after its workers got ill due to exposure to harmful mist.
With local exhaust ventilation systems, you can avoid hefty penalties, take care of your employees, and enjoy operational advantages such as:

How Our LEV Systems Work
Our qualified experts can supply and fit your production site or laboratory with a complete suite of local exhaust ventilation solutions.
Once installed, we can test and do maintenance work on your LEV system every 14 months, in accordance with legally aligned standards such as BS EN 14175 and DW/154.
Ultimately, cutting-edge technology and updated compliance underpin our LEV systems, which work like so:
- Our “frontline” equipment sucks in hazardous vapours and dust at or very near their source. These “frontliners” could be any combination of the following systems:
- Fume Cupboards and Fume Extraction Canopies: Stationary units that capture air contaminants at specific points of factories or laboratories.
- Nederman Extraction Arms: Purification systems similar in function to cupboards or canopies, but can be moved quickly to different areas where dust or fumes may originate.
- Once sucked in, contaminated air is purified through a system of ducts, fans, and filters.
- Finally, clean air is safely expelled through an exhaust system.
