Tailored solutions for every food production environment

The food industry faces several dust extraction challenges. To this end, Kiekens offers the convenience of one central dust extraction system in which the various components are perfectly coordinated. In doing so, we also take into account future growth and expansion. Scalable customization, that's what we call. Think of high-vacuum solutions for the local extraction of powder or flour from a mixer or dump machine, low-vacuum extraction to remove airborne dust particles, and vacuum cleaners that make the floor surface sparkling clean again. We will build the tube network required for this purpose ourselves.

With this one-stop shop approach, we offer a system that minimizes dust contacts, meets the strictest safety standards and can easily grow with your production capacity.

A suitable solution

Dustmaster 1200

The generously sized 5.8m² bag filter guarantees maintenance of capacity for longer periods of time so that work can be done without annoying interruptions. During operation, the degree of filter fouling can be monitored by the manometer fitted as standard to determine when the filter needs cleaning.

The filter can be easily cleaned manually by the ergonomically positioned beater crank. The collected dust is collected in a mobile and generously sized 120L dust container, which can optionally be fitted with a waste bag.

Dutch Filtration
Dutch Filtration is a family business with two offices in Wormerveer. She manufactures filtration equipment at one location and filter cartridges at the other. The complete filtration systems then find their way to the energy and process industries. With the help of innovative filter designs, they know how to treat liquids in an economical and efficient way, in accordance with the highest standards. Of course, Dutch Filtration itself also works that way — efficiently and compliantly — and so action was taken immediately when the demand for the products rose explosively.

Dust Extraction in the Food Industry

Production workers must be able to breathe clean, dust-free air at all times. And if (a) substance unintentionally ends up in one of the foods, it is disastrous for product quality. These are two drivers that can be tapped off with one system: a dust extraction system that you can count on.

With 115 years of proven techniques, experience and craftsmanship, we find a suitable solution for every production area. For example, we developed and installed a complete extraction system in the new production hall of a candy manufacturer, and at a sugar producer, we optimized the operation of a combustion boiler by installing a fan. Which issue are you looking for a solution to?
