The Construction & Aggregates industries (including quarrying and mining) represent some of the most physically demanding environments in which Industrial MRO products have to operate. Dirt, dust, moisture, exposure to the elements and extremes of temperature create conditions which can undermine the effective performance and longevity of many production-critical components. Brammer understands fully the demands this creates and can provide a range of specific solutions designed to maximise the performance of these components and thus enable customers to maintain maximum levels of production.

Brammer can provide technical advice on a wide range of applications which have specific features designed to help components cope with the demanding environments in which they will be operating. Whether it's the ability to cope with increased levels of vibration and higher shock-loads, improved seals to keep out dust and dirt, or corrosion resistant surface treatments we can identify, source and supply the most suitable products for the job.

But just as importantly many of the physical areas within these industries are classified as ‘hazardous areas' where the amount of gas, vapour, dust or fibres is such that an ignition source originating from an electrical spark or overheating equipment could cause an explosion.

Such hazardous areas are now covered by the ATEX directive introduced in July 2003. Brammer offers an extensive range of products all of which have been tested and certified as fully ATEX compliant.
