Flexible hoses from Hi-Tech Duravent reduce sawdust hazards

Hi-Tech Duravent flexible hoses are perfect for sawdust elimination.

Hi-Tech Duravent manufactures a wide variety of flexible hoses for many applications, and one function that can make an enormous difference is sawdust elimination. Pulp and paper workplaces, especially sawmills, face serious safety hazards when it comes to sawdust buildup.

Sawdust in the air makes breathing dangerous for woodworking employees. In addition, excessive sawdust that has not been cleared away can lead to fires or even explosions. Fortunately, Hi-Tech’s line of hosing from Flexible Technologies, Inc. can help prevent these disasters.
