With the understanding that workplace safety and sustainable, environmental responsibility go together, codes and regulations are in place regarding the construction, location and operation of spray booth technology. Finishing companies must comply with codes and regulations including: BOCA National Fire Prevention Code National Building Code Occupation Safety and Health Act (OSHA) National Fire Protection Association (NFPA-33) OBC Uniform Building Code UFC Uniform Building Code SBCCI Standard Fire Prevention Code Challenge Automotive and aftermarket companies comply with every code and regulation while maintaining optimal working conditions. Employees have the potential to be exposed to many hazards. Chemical hazards may include sanding dusts containing metals, solvents, paints and cleaners. Physical hazards may include cutting and sanding tools, noise, repetitive stress and uneven or slippery floor surfaces. Implementing effective health and safety programs can reduce the risk of employee accidents, save money and improve employee morale. Longer-lasting and high efficiency filtration solutions can be a challenge due to the inherent risks of this highly technical and sensitive operation. Improper application technology, poor filtration, chemical imbalance and insufficient maintenance can result in fires, leaks or spontaneous combustion. Solution Statement Clogged filters compromise the safety conditions for spray booth workers and decreases the airflow, which allows particulate to harden and fall onto the painted surface. This results in a dimple effect on an automobile requiring costly duplication efforts.
