Case Study: Weba Kemi achieves 40 years of reliable, dust-free powder conveying with Piab vacuum conveyors

Weba Kemi runs Piab conveyor for 40 years with reliable vacuum conveying

For over 40 years, the family-owned detergent producer Weba Kemi needed a safe way to move powder in their production line, as traditional electrical methods posed a severe dust explosion risk. They turned to vendor Piab, adopting their C2 vacuum conveyor for its non-electric, vacuum-based solution.

The solution from Piab, a C2 vacuum conveyor installed in 1982, operated with exceptional reliability for nearly four decades, requiring only a single minor repair in 2017. The results provided a consistently safe and dust-free environment. To celebrate this longevity, Piab awarded Weba Kemi a new piFLOW®p vacuum conveyor, extending their partnership and sustainable operations.
