Dust in the building does not always pose a health and safety risk. However, years of below-standard cleaning and improper handling of combustible specks of dust can lead to injuries, death, and property destruction. Thankfully, we can help! With our dust management services, your workplace and employees will be safe from dust explosions.
Three Tips To Prevent Combustible Dust
Dust can accumulate in many areas of your facility. All facilities should conduct an audit periodically to evaluate the potential for combustible dust build-up. It is very important to deep clean your workplace for dust more than once a year. Encourage employees to keep a watchful eye on dust buildup and to report it immediately.
The three necessary elements needed to make fire are heat, oxygen, and fuel (dust). Volatile dust can develop from many sources like plastics, grain, bulk food products, carbon, coal, wood, etc. Combustible dust can also be byproducts from grinding, crushing, conveying, screening, and sanding. Combustible dust can also accumulate in specific areas of your facility such as receiving areas for raw material, particular production areas, maintenance, and boxing areas. Combustible dust can be managed using procedural methods such as deep cleaning, vacuum recovery cleaning, and removing compressed air from the routine clean-up procedures.
We will conduct a survey and an assessment to analyze your specific needs and resolutions to all of your combustible dust needs. Our team is highly qualified and trained to clean the dust in hard-to-reach places. After hiring us for our dust management program, you will feel confident in the safety of your workplace.
What Our Customers Say
“We use Recoveron quite often for smaller mold and mildew issues as well as any major water issues. Recoveron has always been very good in response as well as follow up with recommendations.”
“They were very flexible to accommodate many schedule changes, and still accomplish according to the timelines. Everything done on time and according to the expectation.”
“Our 30+-year-old machining company was in dire need of professional cleaning, especially after the installation of 3 new large boring mills and an open house just around the corner! The walls and floor were covered in layers of grease, oil, and coolant. I had several local cleaners in to review and quote the project…. all declined; it was outside of their capability, and they wouldn’t touch it.
After calling Recoveron, I could sense they had seen it all before. Their team came out to review and quote the project….. didn’t even blink an eye… they could do the job, NO PROBLEM! Plus, they would work during the Off Shift so that we could continue to produce product for our customers. They coordinated the lifts and equipment, and the crew went to work over ten days, meeting with the shop foreman daily to coordinate a plan each night and setting the direction for ease and efficiency for both Recoveron and Lighting Machine. The crew was respectful, detailed, and systematic and took pride in their work; they treated our machine shop as if it were their own home.
The project cost was fair and reasonable, and we intend to engage Recoveron regularly to keep the shop in Tip-Top shape. I have already recommended other companies in our industry to give them a call!
It has been a delight to work with Recoveron; the results are dramatic and far exceeded our expectations!”
“Recoveron was here to paint an office for us. We are happy because the job is done to perfection!”
“Everyone did what was expected, and the industrial crew was friendly and professional.”
“Recoveron has been with us through AIB certification to becoming SQF certified. They do pre-inspections to determine the scope of work and provide on-sight documentation. Once the work is completed, they furnish the needed information for inspections.
For the past six years, they have provided plant cleaning and coatings for our Wisconsin facility and now are working at our Minnesota location. Recoveron is a knowledgeable and reliable resource that I would recommend to any manufacturer!”

“Great Job. Great guys on the crew. They knew what they were doing and got the job done. I would recommend them to others, and I have pictures to prove their work quality, before and after, a total transformation from old to new. Don’t give up on your old facility; just get it cleaned!”
“Fast-learning, diligent workers with very good mechanical aptitude.”
“We had some heavy dust/oil build-up on our Fresh Air intakes and Exhaust fans at the 30-foot ceiling left. Recoveron came in, blocked off the area, brushed and vacuumed the areas, and cleaned the floors when done.
Their group cleaned and painted a control room exterior and even cleaned and painted a workstation and safety barrier. They look very good.
Part of the group worked on the back wall behind the machinery, brushing and vacuuming it, making it look 100% better.
Thank you very much.”
“Our building looks so much better and I appreciate all the hard work from your team.”
