Dust and Egress in Conveyor Load Zones:
How to Significantly Reduce Risks

In this webinar we’ll explain how the TRAC SKIRT SYSTEM™️ help sites reduce dust emissions by up to 95%. Not only is that a win for air quality, but it’s also a win for everyone on the ground. Less dust means fewer cleanups and less fatigue. It means better visibility, safer inspections, and crews that go home healthier at the end of the day.

Dust isn’t just dirty work. It’s dangerous work. In mining, we talk about dust like it’s just part of the job. Something you tolerate. Something that comes with the territory of moving tonnes of material every day. But the people closest to the dust, the ones walking the belt, inspecting chutes, and clearing buildup know better.

They’re the ones wearing masks for every inspection. Working with reduced visibility around moving equipment. Breathing in fine dust day after day because the skirt system leaks every shift. And they’re the ones carrying the long-term health risks that don’t show up on this week’s risk register. Dust exposure isn’t just uncomfortable. It’s unsafe.

When a conveyor skirt system leaks every shift, it’s not a PPE problem. It’s a design flaw. You can’t engineer around poor sealing with more masks and more cleanups. You must fix it at the source: the skirt system itself.
