Clean side: storage and dispensing in vivarium
- The bedding is fed into the system and pneumatically transported to the silo or fi lling installation
- Exact Dispensing of the bedding for each cage. The required amount is either set by the operator of the machine before the cage is fi lled or measured automatically by the system itself
- Dust arising during fi lling is removed by vacuum. This reduces the hazard of allergic reactions; working
conditions are tangibly improved - Central unit

Why DustControl in your vivarium?
Reliability
Dustcontrol systems are known for their great reliability. Its experience in over 200 projects led to a world leading know-how and innovation.
Minimised allergy risks for vivarium technicians
Bedding is de-dusted during the pneumatic transport. Dust from filling or emptying operations is caught on the spot. Thus, allergy risks for employees are signifi cantly reduced.
Optimised ergonomics of workflow in vivarium
Avoidance of heavy physical loads and long transport paths combined with reduction of unergonomic bending and rotation of the torso improve the ergonomics of the entire work process.
Comfortable work environment
Massive reduction of dust exposure and greatly lessened strain on the human body provide a markedly improved working environment. Surveys confirmed raised employee motivation and lowered downtime.
Enhanced efficiency
Work process efficiency is noticeably raised, especially by increased work speed due to simplified filling and emptying of cages and by replacing manual with pneumatic bedding transport. De-dusting the bedding also reduces cleaning requirements.
Easy handling
Precise Dispensing of the amount to fill each cage assures standardised keeping conditions. With a Dustcontrol system, all types of bedding and forms of enrichment are easily vacuumed up. On demand with a combined shredding device.
Economic conception
Dustcontrol provides you with solutions customdesigned to your very specific demands. We focus on economically pragmatic solutions without unnecessary accessories. Depending on the environment, our installations commonly pay for themselves within 1-2 years.
