Electrically Conductive Materials for Industrial Vacuum Cleaners in EPA and ATEX/Ex zones
Designed for Electrostatic Charge Control and Explosion Safety
From conductive vacuum hoses and connectors to housings and cleaning tools, Premix materials help manufacturers develop lightweight, durable, and electrically conductive components for industrial vacuum cleaners in ATEX/Ex- and ESD-sensitive environments.
The Safety of Your Vacuum System Depends on Every Component
Industrial vacuum and dust extraction systems rely on conductivity throughout the entire system—not just in the hose.
From connectors and handles to housings, locking elements, wheels, and nozzles, every component plays a role in maintaining grounding continuity and supporting safe operation in ATEX/Ex, and EPA environments.
Premix electrically conductive compounds help manufacturers design safer, lighter, and more durable vacuum system components while delivering reliable electrical conductivity and long-term performance.
Why Material Selection Matters?
Designing industrial vacuum systems for hazardous and ESD-sensitive environments involves balancing multiple requirements.
Material selection affects not only compliance and safety but also durability, processability, and total system performance.
The right material must provide:
✔ Reliable conductivity throughout the product lifetime
✔ Resistance to abrasion and mechanical wear
✔ Performance under repeated bending and movement
✔ Lightweight alternatives to metal components
✔ Processability for efficient manufacturing
✔ Consistent quality and supply
