DB Schenker

Challenges

DB Schenker in Dortmund is one of this successful global player’s largest facilities and specialises in contract logistics and transport services. As with any logistics location, enormous quantities of fine and coarse particulate matter are produced here every day and distributed throughout the space. The main sources are due to abrasion of the fork-lift wheels, people coming and going and indus-trial trucks driving around. The consequences of this torrent of particles were already evident in everyday occurrences: “Whenever employees would blow their noses, the tissues were black. Above all, however, the dust affected safety, employee health, the quality of the goods and the overall condition of the halls. To counteract this, a solution for air cleaning in logistics was required.
