Dust extraction for maximum safety and compliance with laws and regulations within Defence

At Defence, everything revolves around safety, reliability and control. To monitor these three pillars, the work environment must comply with strict guidelines, for people and equipment. If you are looking for a partner that understands that and translates that into smart solutions, Kiekens is in the right place. Kiekens supplies industrial dust extraction systems that comply with ATEX guidelines and military standards such as NATO safety standards. Our installations effectively capture harmful substances: from metal dust and chromium 6 to explosive particles, composite dust, plastic dust, wood dust and particulate matter (PM10/PM2.5). The result? A cleaner, safer workplace that demonstrably complies with laws and regulations.

Defence requires customization with military precision

You want to tackle every location, situation and risk with customization. At the same time, all solutions must be compatible. Read: be cost-efficient, practical to use and tailored to the daily reality of the workplace. That is why Kiekens is developing one central dust extraction system in which all components — from high and low vacuum technology to vacuum units and pipe networks — work seamlessly together. And because this is a scalable system, we can easily respond to shrinkage, growth or changing regulations within Defence, without having to overhaul the entire system.

Flexibly deployable

Our dust extraction systems can be used in a wide range of applications: in metalworking workshops, at vehicle maintenance locations and in areas where hazardous substances such as chromium 6 are released. Thanks to mobile dust extractors, they can also be used at various locations. We also carry out the entire pipework in-house. In doing so, we offer Defence a one-stop shop approach that guarantees convenience, safety and future-proofing.

Long-term security: service & maintenance

Dust extraction is not a matter of installation and you're done. Even after delivery, everything must continue to run as it should: safe, error-free and in accordance with the rules. Kiekens offers service and maintenance contracts that seamlessly meet the requirements of the Ministry of Defence. In this way, we guarantee maximum availability of the systems, rapid intervention in the event of faults and predictable maintenance costs. This way, the (air) quality remains up to par, risks remain manageable and you can keep a grip on both safety and budget.

A suitable solution

The Dustmaster 10,000

Especially for Defence and military applications, there is the Dustmaster DM10,000. This dust extractor is a highly reliable and effective solution for safely extracting dust and hazardous particles.
