Sampling of crystalline silica

For over 15 years, CTP has been monitoring workers’ exposure to respirable crystalline silica dust.

Stakeholders involved in the mining sector, particularly aggregate producers, are required to regularly monitor staff exposure to this substance, which is naturally present in the materials they produce.

CTP conducts on-site sampling by equipping workers with individual sampling devices (CIP 10) to collect airborne dust, which is then analysed in the laboratory.

These essential data can be used to help assess health risks and optimise protective measures.
