Air Cleaners

Plåt & Mekano Romator, a prominent player in thin sheet metal processing and contract manufacturing based in Täby, Stockholm, specializes in prototypes, pre-series, and volume production. The company previously faced challenges with smoke, dust, and odors in its production facilities. By installing air cleaners from QleanAir, they effectively reduced the levels of airborne particles and gases, creating a cleaner and healthier environment for their employees.

Diverse customer base and high expertise

Plåt & Mekano Romator serves a wide range of industries, including telecom, electronics, construction, and real estate, demonstrating a broad expertise. For example, they have developed prototypes and initiated serial production of air cleaners for QleanAir. “The work environment and the safety of our employees are prioritized for us. There is always something to improve or refine when it comes to the working environment. Regular health check-ups are part of our commitment to employee well-being,” says Eva Mauritzon, Key Account Manager in Sales and Marketing.

Challenges: Smoke, dust and odor

In facilities where thin sheet metal processing, welding, and packing occur, particles and gases are commonly generated, adversely affecting both the work environment and product cleanliness. At Plåt & Mekano Romator, welding fumes and grinding dust were prevalent in the welding area, while combustion was a concern in rooms where laser welding is practiced. In the warehouse, were pallets and packaged products are stored, dusty air and a noticeable wood odor was noticeable.

Solution: Free-standing air cleaners tailored to the company’s needs

Committed to employee well-being, the company initiated an internal dialogue that led to engaging QleanAir. A thorough analysis identified areas with high particle concentrations, such as the areas dedicated to welding, laser work, and in the warehouse. Subsequently, air cleaners tailored to the company’s needs were installed to ensure maximum effectivity at the main sources of pollution.

Results: Cleaner and healthier air

Since installing the air cleaners, the air quality in the facilities has improved significantly. The collaboration between QleanAir and Plåt & Mekano Romator not only enhanced the work environment but also demonstrated the company’s commitment to employee well-being. Investing in air cleaning solutions has created a safer, more productive, and pleasant workplace for all employees.

”The installation of two air cleaners in the welding hall has made a significant difference; the smell of smoke and the presence of dust is no longer noticeable.”
