Welding fume extraction efficiently reduces occupational health risks

4. mars 2021

Concerns over the risks of welder exposure to harmful welding fumes have initiated EU and national-level actions. The revised version of ISO standard 21904-3 defines the method for measuring the capture efficiency of welding fume extraction guns. Kemppi has conducted tests according to the new standard with Flexlite GF, a new fume-extracting MIG welding gun with convincing results.

Safety that keeps up with welders' challenges and changing risks

Safety that keeps up with welders' challenges and changing risks

Welding safety has become increasingly demanding. The hazards at the arc remain constant, but modern working conditions mean exposure can accumulate over longer shifts and in tighter indoor spaces. As a result, welding PPE needs to be treated as both protection for the welder and proof of compliance. At Kemppi, welding safety PPE is designed and validated in practice through clear requirements, welder-led feedback, and verified compliance with EU PPE Regulation 2016/425, CE marking processes, and relevant EN standards.
