Case Study: Sink Manufacturer's Dust Problems Down the Drain

Sink Factory, Inc. (SFI) is a manufacturer of cast polymer products. In 2004, they started their business in a facility that already had a baghouse dust collector in place.

Employees with protective masks worked in an environment of dust laden air and thick layers of settled particulate.
