The global company Sto, with headquarters in Stühlingen in southern Baden, is known for high-quality products such as facade insulation systems, paints, acoustic systems, floor coatings, varnishes and glazes, and this worldwide.
At the Stühlingen site, Infastaub was able to realize a demanding project for Binkert Haustechnik GmbH (GU) and the end customer Sto SE & Co. KGaA. The project name “Dust removal building 21” is a project whose successful implementation would not have been possible without the professional cooperation of all the companies involved, such as Sto, as well as the company responsible for the building services, Binkert, and Infastaub GmbH.
Only one dust removal system instead of eleven
The task: Centralizing the dust removal function and integrating 11 different extraction points, which were located in different rooms and different floors. The aim was to achieve significant space savings, lower maintenance costs and easier disposal of the dust, combined with higher performance.
Mixed dusts and explosion protection concept
The dusts generated were a mixture of wood dust, plastic particles and inorganic components. The filter system was designed by Infastaub with a preventive explosion protection concept for the entire system and placed on the ground floor. Effect: This spatial placement makes it much easier to dispose of the dust that is generated. Although the limited space during installation was a challenge, this was easily solved.
