What Dustcontrol does

Dustcontrol is a Swedish manufacturer of industrial and construction dust extraction equipment, founded in 1972 and headquartered in Norsborg, Sweden. The company designs and builds mobile dust extractors (DC Tromb, DC Storm, DC 2900 series), air cleaners/scrubbers (DC AirCube series), stationary central vacuum systems (with TPR turbopumps, filter units, pre-separators, tubing, and Smart Panel control systems), liquids extractors for wet drilling, the Dustlight personal respirable dust monitor, and supporting accessories and consumables. Its core technology is centered on HEPA13 filtration capturing 99.95% of particles per EN 1822-1, a patented self-cleaning filter mechanism, ATEX-certified equipment for explosive atmospheres, and a two-stage pre-filter plus HEPA13 architecture individually tested with reports. The company is vertically integrated, with R&D and manufacturing both retained in Sweden, and holds ISO 9001, ISO 14001, and ISO 45001 certifications.

Dustcontrol serves enterprise customers across construction, industrial manufacturing (metal work, wood/plastic, pharmaceutical, chemical, ceramic, printing, composites, aviation, automotive), food processing, and equipment rental verticals. Notable named accounts span Airbus, Lockheed Martin, Nestlé, Thyssen Krupp, Sandvik Coromant, Orion Pharma, Pankl Racing, Bart Spices, Speedy Hire, Cramo, and Brandon Hire, indicating penetration into aerospace, defense, food/beverage, pharmaceutical, and rental channels. The revenue model is hardware sales of extractors and central vacuum systems, consumables (filters, Longopac/intellibag bags, accessories), and service/support delivered through authorized resellers, with quote-based pricing (not publicly disclosed). Go-to-market combines a worldwide direct sales team of experienced technicians, a multi-country reseller network, and regional localized websites in Sweden, Finland, the UK, the US, Austria, Germany, and France.
