Welding Fume Testing

The process of welding exposes us to many hazardous chemicals.

Hazardous welding fumes and trace metals can be inhaled by employees without adequate protection during welding and hot work.

 

Having an exposure assessment report from the competent staff at K2 will show employees they are in a safe work environment and provide evidence that you are making the right steps to improve the workplace.

Exposure to welding fumes can cause many adverse health effects, including:

  • Cancer
  • Damage to the respiratory tract
  • Kidney damage
  • Irritation of the eyes, nose and throat
  • Central nervous system problems
  • Shortness of breath
  • Fluid in lungs
  • Pneumonia
