VertEx Cross-draught

Modular walls of extraction that draw dust, fumes and mist horizontally through perforated front panels into internal filters. Clean air is returned to the workspace — no ductwork, no heat loss. Built to order in the East of England with rapid delivery using stock components.

How It Works

Systems start from a single extracted face (1200×600mm) with no upper size limit — full walk-in booths available for large-scale applications.

Cross-Draught Extraction

Horizontal airflow captures dust and fumes across a wide area efficiently.

The Right Filter for Your Application

14 filter options capture welding fume, wood dust, and vapours.

Energy Efficient Operation

Low-energy EC fans with inverters cut energy use and costs — run a large booth from a 13A socket.

Premium Solutions for Cleaner Air

From individual machines to entire facilities — VertEx scales to meet your extraction needs.

OMF Central Systems

Cleans air across entire machine shops — ideal for facilities with multiple CNC machines, grinding stations, or welding bays.

  • Handles 20+ machines simultaneously
  • Energy-efficient dual-stage filtration
  • Scalable centralised extraction

AOF Compact Units

Space-saving design for individual CNC machines — mounts directly onto machine tools without taking up floor space.

  • Captures 99.8% of oil mist & smoke
  • Self-cleaning filters reduce maintenance
  • Automatic pulse-clean system

AOF Mist Collectors

Recycles coolant for cost savings — captured coolant can be returned to the machine sump.

  • Works with all coolant types
  • ATEX-compliant options available
  • Reduces fluid purchases and disposal costs

Trusted across industries

Woodshops & Cabinet Makers

VertEx captures wood dust from sanders and CNC routers, preventing airborne particles from reaching workers' breathing zones.

Metal Fabricators & Welders

Cross-draught captures grinding dust and welding fume at the source without obstruction. Spark-arrestor options available for hot work.

Composite & GRP Workshops

Captures resin fumes, fibreglass dust, and VOCs. Carbon filters available for laminating and curing processes.

Industrial Manufacturing Plants

Large-area dust control for powder coating booths and assembly lines. Walk-in booths allow free movement during uninterrupted extraction.

Why VertEx outperforms traditional extraction

Modular Design — Any Size or Shape

VertEx scales from a single panel to any size — L-shapes, walk-in booths, or multi-sided enclosures.

Multi-Process Protection

One system captures sanding dust, welding fumes, solvents, overspray, and combustible dusts.

Clean Air Recirculation Technology

Filters and recirculates clean air, eliminating heat loss and reducing HVAC costs by up to 30%.

Simple, Low-Cost Installation

No ductwork, building changes, or major electrical work needed. Just unpack, position, plug in, and work.
