Why Exquintia for food, feed and powder processes?

In food, feed and powder processing, explosion hazards are still often underestimated because combustible dust behaves differently from gas or vapour.

Exquintia supports companies with ATEX, dust zoning, explosion protection documentation, inspections, risk analysis and practical control measures.

Recognisable question

Is your dust explosion risk still demonstrably controlled?

Many food, feed and powder companies struggle with an outdated EPD, dust zoning that no longer matches the installation, maintenance that changes risk, an insufficient inspection regime or equipment that is not demonstrably suitable for the zone.

Outcome

A file that is technically coherent and audit-ready.

Exquintia delivers demonstrable explosion safety: clear substantiation for authorities, insurers, internal audits or clients, less uncertainty about downtime and practical measures that can be implemented in daily operation.

01

Dust explosion safety in working plants

Combustible dust risk may occur in filters, silos, elevators, mixers, dryers, extraction ducts, big bag unloading stations, transport systems and dust layers.

Exquintia assesses the actual process: where dust is released, where it can become airborne, how extraction works and how cleaning is controlled.

02

Typical support

Exquintia supports food, feed and powder companies with:

  • explosion protection documentation
  • dust hazardous area classification
  • inspection of Ex installations
  • assessment of dust extraction and housekeeping
  • ignition source assessment
  • audit preparation and improvement programmes
03

Result

You gain a clear view of current dust explosion risks, critical dust layers, relevant ignition sources, missing documentation and measures needed to improve explosion safety.

Concrete entry point

Choose directly why you involve Exquintia.

Not a generic contact step, but a clear route for EPD, zoning, inspection regime and explosion safety risks.

Request an ATEX intake

For companies that want to know whether their EPD, zoning or inspection regime is still up to date.

Request intake

Have your EPD reviewed for auditability

For companies that already have a document, but doubt whether it holds up technically and legally.

Review EPD

Request an explosion safety quickscan

For battery charging areas, dust installations, food/feed, utilities, water treatment and maintenance situations.

Request quickscan

Does your company work with combustible powders?

Have your dust explosion risk independently assessed for filters, silos, elevators, mixers, dryers, extraction ducts, big-bag unloading stations and dust layers.
