Particle Board - General >

The wood panel industry has been experiencing problems with fire and dust explosions for a long time. And the particle board industry is no exception. Up to today, these problems haven't been eliminated. And unfortunately as your production increases, so does the risk for fire and explosions.

Problem areas in a particle board factory are dryer(s), dryer cyclones, screens, mills, wind sifters, silos, line extraction, sanding/saws as well as the press. All of these areas of your production are vulnerable to possible fire and dust explosions! Dangerous sparks and hot particles can be generated in your process, that can lead to loss of revenue and/or human life as well as major damage to your production line and machinery.

Firefly uses data from the U.S. National Fire Protection Association (NFPA) to determine the ignition point relevant for your process. We then design a protection system appropriate to the risk and your specific process.
