Podiatry & Chiropody Extraction

Fume and dust extraction systems for podiatry and chiropody are extremely essential for the health of practitioners. This is because foot care procedures tend to generate a number of harmful dust particles.

Nail dust collected during these procedures have been found to contain keratin, keratin hydrolysates, microbial debris, and viable fungal elements, including dermatophytes and saprotrophs.

There is also the risk of microbial dust during foot care procedures when treating callouses, corns, or during routine exfoliation. All of these particles get into the lungs and can lead to disorders like asthma, rhinitis, and possibly worse.

With all these waste products resulting in airborne dust, it is important to extract them and dispose of them using fit-for-purpose extraction technology as provided here by Vodex.

Our podiatry and chiropody extraction systems have been especially developed to remove and filter harmful fumes and dusts for practitioners. This ensures that you and your team are able to work in a clean, safe and healthy work environment.
