Towable Dust Suppression - DustLayer

From Zero to Hero!

The DustLayer is one of Corgin’s enduring success stories. Having been designed in 2011 to help a client with a particular need, the DustLayer is now our best-seller and is the medium-scale, towable dust suppression unit of choice for many of the UK’s leading construction, demolition and recycling companies. Loved because of its versatility and cost-effectiveness, the DustLayer consists of a road-towable, trailer-mounted bowser with a diesel engine-driven pump operating a bank of high-pressure, high-volume spray nozzles at the top of a height-adjustable mast.

Totally Portable

The DustLayer is completely self-contained. It can be towed into position, the mast erected, the bowser filled and the start button pressed—all by a single site operative and within minutes. It will give continuous suppression for up to two hours before needing a refill, while the fuel tank typically gives around 4 hours before you need to reach for the diesel can. Because the DustLayer is a towable dust suppression unit, it can be manoeuvred around the dust source easily to take advantage of varying wind direction and to maximise effectiveness.

Tall Story

The DustLayer’s mast is its most distinctive feature. Easily adjustable between 3.0 and 4.6m, it allows great flexibility such that the nozzles can be mounted at a level that is most appropriate to the application. When at its full height and placed upwind of the dust source, the DustLayer takes advantage of any breeze to maximise dispersion of the mist to a range of at least 10-15 metres.

Multifunctional

DustLayers also feature a pressure-washer lance as standard, meaning that it has a very useful second function. At the end of a shift, vehicles or other site equipment can be washed down effectively.

Wide Range of Applications

DustLayers are used across a wide variety of industrial applications, however they particularly come into their own in situations where relatively targeted, small or medium-scale suppression is required. Typically ideal situations are lorry-loading, tipping, or outdoor process equipment such as shredders, screeners and loading hoppers.    However, they can also be used for spraying and misting of disinfectants for surface sanitising.

Hire or Purchase

The DustLayer towable dust suppression units are available either for hire or purchase. Following significant recent investment driven by the unit’s popularity, we now have a considerable number of units on our hire fleet, available for rapid deployment from our Midlands-based premises.
