Client Introduction

Concrete Sleepers Canberra have been manufacturing precast concrete since 1961.

Concrete Sleepers Canberra hand make these high-quality sleepers, to engineers’ specifications.

The Challenge

Concrete dust can carry high volumes of silica which when inhaled, can cause lung damage.

This dust is talcum powder fine and ends up airborne quiet easily.

They have a drive through pick up system with a showroom, which needed sweeping to eliminate the silica dust build up.

The Solution

A demonstration was organised with the heavy-duty ASC Eureka Mach 1 sweeper.

Many questions were asked, and careful consideration was made in choosing the right sweeper for their environment.

The final decision was made to purchase the ASC Eureka Mach 1 sweeper, due to its build quality and easy maintenance schedule.
