Vacuum Cleaners
Buy Vacuum Cleaners
Industrial Vacuum Cleaners are a practical buy for construction sites, workshops, factories, and any working environment where fine dust, debris, and hazardous particulates need to be contained and removed effectively. Unlike domestic vacuum cleaners, industrial units are built for continuous operation, high-volume dust collection, and — critically — fine filtration capable of capturing hazardous fine particles including silica dust from concrete and masonry work. Wenbro stocks industrial-grade Vacuum Cleaners suited to construction and workshop environments, all maintained in-house. For surface-level sweeping of larger areas, our Road Sweepers cover external hardstandings, and for general site support equipment, see our Miscellaneous range.
Frequently Asked Questions
What’s the difference between an industrial Vacuum Cleaner and a domestic model?
Industrial Vacuum Cleaners are built for continuous heavy-duty use, with larger capacity collection tanks, more powerful motors, and — critically — higher-grade filtration including HEPA filters capable of capturing fine and hazardous particles. Domestic models are not suitable for construction dust, silica, or fine industrial particulates and should never be used as a substitute.
Are industrial Vacuum Cleaners required for concrete and masonry dust extraction?
Yes — for any work generating respirable crystalline silica dust (concrete grinding, core drilling, chasing, scarifying), an industrial vacuum with H-class or M-class filtration is required for dust extraction. This is both a health and safety requirement and a legal obligation in most construction environments. Pair with our Floor Grinders and Scarifiers for a compliant dust extraction setup.
What filtration class do I need for construction dust?
For fine construction dust including silica, an M-class or H-class industrial vacuum is required. M-class units filter particles down to approximately 0.3 microns with 99.9% efficiency, while H-class units handle carcinogenic and highly hazardous dusts. L-class units handle coarser, lower-hazard dust only and are not appropriate for silica-generating activities.
Can industrial Vacuum Cleaners be used wet and dry?
Many industrial Vacuum Cleaners are rated for both wet and dry collection — useful for mopping up water ingress, cleaning coolant from machinery, and collecting slurry from wet-cutting operations. Confirm the wet/dry rating before use and ensure the filter is appropriate for the material being collected.
Does Wenbro service industrial Vacuum Cleaners after purchase?
Yes — all Vacuum Cleaners purchased through Wenbro are supported by in-house servicing, including filter replacement, motor inspection, and tank maintenance. Regular filter servicing is essential to maintain suction performance and filtration efficiency. Call 087 073 7777 to arrange.
