Paints, Powder Coating
and Shot Blasting

The paints, powder coating, and shot blasting industries generate fine particulate dust, overspray, and abrasive residues that can impact air quality, worker safety, and equipment efficiency. Effective dust collection is essential to ensure a clean working environment, prevent contamination, and comply with environmental standards.

Key Factors Affecting Filter Selection
  • High filtration efficiency to capture fine powder and paint particles.
  • Abrasion-resistant materials for handling shot blasting residues.
  • Anti-static properties to prevent dust ignition in powder coating operations.
  • Long-lasting filters to reduce maintenance and improve operational efficiency.

Common Dust Challenges & Optimal Filtration Solutions

In powder coating applications, fine powder overspray can accumulate and lead to contamination if not properly filtered. Similarly, shot blasting generates high-speed abrasive dust that can quickly wear down conventional filters. The paint industry also produces volatile organic compounds (VOCs) and fine pigments requiring specialized filtration.

For optimal filtration, Polyester with PTFE Membrane Filter Bags are recommended for their high dust release properties and superior filtration efficiency. Anti-Static Polyester Filter Bags are ideal for powder coating applications, preventing static build-up and dust explosions. For shot blasting, Meta-Aramid (Nomex®) Filter Bags offer excellent abrasion resistance and durability, ensuring long-lasting performance.
