Paint and varnish industry

When painting or spraying objects, thinner, turpentine and oleaginous products are often used. Storage as well as use of these product, can build up explosive and fire hazardous concentrations of vapour in plants and facilities. Likewise, grinding and polishing processes, can produce explosive concentrations of dust in ventilation and filters.

In order to minimise the risk of fire and explosion-related incidents, existing and new organisations in the paint and varnish industry are required to undertake initiatives aimed at increasing the security of employees, production facilities as well as structures. The minimum of these initiatives is described in the European Union’s ATEX directive.
