AirBench

AirBench For safer workplace environments; AirBench specialises in downdraught benches and cross-draught extraction systems.

We manufacture a range of self-contained fume and dust extraction benches and associated machinery. AirBenches are robust industrial workbenches with integral fan and filters. They draw dust down through their worksurface and into the internal filters, returning clean air to the room. Our products are a self-contained and effective method for controlling workplace contaminants and protecting your

health (or that of your team). We demonstrate all our products on site across the UK prior to sale. We work closely with all our customers to ensure we supply the correct solution for each application; our range covers more than 400 standard configurations including different sizes, models, and filter types - you get all the benefits of an off-the-shelf solution whilst not wasting money on over-filtering or overcomplicated solutions.

The hidden costs of poor dust extraction in workshops don’t appear on the initial invoice. If it has the wrong specifications, is poorly installed, or inadequately maintained, the initial saving can quickly disappear over the lifetime of the system.

We provide reliable dust/fume extraction systems.

In composite manufacturing, dust from GRP or carbon fibre may seem like part of the job, but fine airborne particles can pose serious health risks if they're not properly controlled.

The good news? Capturing dust at source before it spreads helps create a cleaner, safer workspace while improving day-to-day efficiency. Book a demo to see the difference for yourself: https://bit.ly/4fBV7ue

Effective laser cutting fume extraction is a fundamental part of protecting employees, preserving equipment and ensuring compliance with UK health and safety legislation. Understanding the risks created allows manufacturers to make informed decisions about extraction systems that support both workplace safety and productivity.

The latest workplace safety figures are a wake-up call.

Around 13,000 UK deaths each year are linked to past exposure to hazardous substances at work, with 11,000 caused by occupational lung disease. In 2025, the HSE completed 246 prosecutions, secured a 96% conviction rate, issued more than £33 million in fines and served over 4,400 enforcement notices for COSHH breaches.

Our downdraught benches capture harmful dust and fumes at source, filter contaminants, and return clean air into the building. Are you looking after your workforce? https://bit.ly/4gOGMvp

What began as a simple adaptation of a traditional industrial workbench has transformed into a highly engineered solution delivering dust extraction, improved energy efficiency, safer working environments and exceptional flexibility. Today’s systems bear little resemblance to their early predecessors, reflecting decades of innovation in airflow management, filtration technology and workplace design.

Did you know, the HSE explicitly states there is no known safe level of exposure to fumes?

This means compliance isn't based on a magic number; if you weld indoors, extraction is a baseline legal requirement regardless of the duration. https://bit.ly/3ReUnBF

Did you know, under COSHH regulations most systems must be thoroughly examined and tested at least once every 14 months?

To remain fully compliant with HSG258 guidance, we offer full servicing, filter replacements, and official LEV testing exclusively for products. https://bit.ly/4voLsMR
