SILICA REMOVAL SYDNEY SPECIALISTS
Silica dust is harmful to health. Silica dust is 100x smaller than a grain of sand and can be easily inhaled. When inhaled over a long period of time, silica dust can lead to an increased risk of developing cancer. Silica dust can also cause other serious illnesses like silicosis (scarring of the lung), kidney disease and chronic pulmonary disease.
Silica dust or crystalline silica is found in:

When these materials are worked on, they release a harmful fine dust called respirable silica crystalline or silica dust into the air. The risk of silica dust in the atmosphere is higher in construction and building sites. While certain professions are more at risk of silica dust exposure, it is important for homeowners to realise that silica dust can also be present in their homes particularly if the house is under construction or renovation.
DryTech is a silica dust removal specialist to call if you need urgent silica dust removal in your property. We work with all the major insurance companies in Australia. We provide a 24/7 silica dust removal service in Sydney and Canberra.
Even a small amount of silica dust is enough to become a potential health hazard. Exposure over 25 – 50 micrograms/cubic meter of respirable silica dust is enough to cause severe health conditions. Similar to asbestos fibres, silica dust also lodges itself on to the soft lung tissue when inhaled and begins to cause the formation of cancer causing cells.

How can I protect myself from silica dust?
To protect yourself from silica dust, you should always wear a properly fitted respirator or dust mask when working with materials that contain silica. You should also make sure to wet down the material you are working on to reduce the amount of dust that becomes airborne. In addition, you should use proper ventilation and exhaust systems to remove dust from the air in your work area.
