Dust Suppression at Network Rail's Works Delivery Innovation Day 2022

Posted by Jed Carvell on Tuesday 29 November 2022

On Wednesday 23rd November, Corgin attended Network Rail's Works Delivery Innovation Day in Cambridgeshire. The purpose of the event was to bring suppliers to Network Rail, with a focus on innovations in the rail sector.

As it was an outdoor event, we were able to run live demonstrations of our mobile dust suppression units, the MistCannon Ranger, DustLayer and MistCannon Micro, as well as showcasing our AtomisterAiro installed dust suppression system. It was also a great opportunity to showcase to the industry how our DustLess Dust Suppressant is able to suppress dust during ballast handling operations. We had some great conversations with attendees and were encouraged by the awareness within the industry of the risks associated with silica dust, and the desire to proactively combat these risks.

The only challenge of the day was the weather! The morning was wet and windy, but everyone refused to let it dampen their spirits! A steady supply of hot drinks and Bao buns was enough to keep us going despite the drizzle.

Thanks to all who attended and to Network Rail for making the event happen.
