Blast Rooms
Blast rooms serve as the controlled environment where blasting takes place, containing abrasives, dust, and noise while ensuring safety and efficiency. At Airblast AFC, we design, manufacture, and install an extensive range of blast rooms tailored to various industries and applications. From containerized setups to weatherproof designs, explore our complete range of blast rooms to find the ideal solution for your project’s unique needs.
Blasting Equipment
The core of any blasting operation is the equipment used to propel abrasive materials at high speeds. Specialized blast equipment is needed to meet various industrial needs, including high-performance blast machines, automated systems, and nozzles designed to handle different blasting agents and pressure levels. This equipment is essential to ensure consistent, controlled delivery for even and thorough surface coverage.
Media Recovery Systems
Efficient media recovery is critical for reducing waste and maintaining cost-effectiveness. Airblast AFC’s media recovery systems allow for continuous recycling, collecting used abrasive materials from the blast room and separating reusable abrasives from dust and contaminants. These systems help maintain a clean environment, reduce material consumption, and save on material costs.
Dust Collection Systems
A dust collection system is essential for controlling the dust generated during blasting operations. Our dust collection units are engineered to filter fine particles from the air, preventing contamination, improving visibility, and maintaining air quality. Effective dust control not only protects worker health but also ensures a cleaner workspace and protects nearby equipment from exposure to fine abrasive particles.

Blast solutions are widely used across industries, including automotive, aerospace, marine, manufacturing, construction, and restoration. Applications range from surface preparation for painting and coating to rust removal, precision cleaning, and finishing.
Custom blast rooms provide a controlled environment for large-scale or high-precision blasting. They help maintain consistent quality, improve operator safety, and enhance media recovery efficiency, making them ideal for industrial applications.
Effective dust collection is essential for maintaining a safe, compliant, and clean workspace. Solutions range from portable dust collectors for smaller operations to integrated ventilation systems for large blast rooms. Proper dust control improves air quality and reduces contamination risks.
These systems collect and recycle abrasive material, reducing waste and operational costs. It can be fully automated or manually operated, depending on the facility’s needs. Proper recovery extends the lifespan of blasting materials and improves environmental sustainability.
Portable closed-circuit blast machines provide on-site blasting with minimal mess, making them ideal for confined spaces, equipment maintenance, or field repairs. These machines contain and recycle abrasive materials, reducing dust and eliminating the need for extensive cleanup.
Blasting requires proper protective equipment (PPE), controlled ventilation, and adherence to safety regulations. Operators should wear respirators, gloves, and protective suits while ensuring containment of blasting materials to prevent airborne hazards. Custom blast rooms and dust collection systems are also essential to enhance safety and efficiency.
The right blast solution depends on the material, surface condition, and desired finish. Factors include media type, pressure settings, equipment choice, and containment needs. Consulting an expert ensures the best results for efficiency and cost-effectiveness.
Routine maintenance keeps blasting equipment performing efficiently and extending its lifespan. Key maintenance tasks include:
- Inspecting and replacing worn nozzles and hoses
- Cleaning dust collection and recovery systems
- Checking air compressors and pressure settings
- Lubricating moving parts and ensuring proper airflow
