• High-temperature particulate generated by furnaces and kilns
• Abrasive dust from grinding, cutting, and material transfer
• Welding fumes and fine metallic particulate
• Mill scale and heavy dust loading
• Large air volumes and continuous-duty operation
• Environmental and workplace exposure requirements

Menardi understands how these conditions affect filter life, airflow, and system stability — and we design filtration solutions to perform reliably under those realities.

Steel and metal manufacturing covers a wide range of processes, each with its own filtration demands. Menardi supports applications across the full lifecycle of metal production and fabrication, including:

• Steelmaking & Melt Shops – Furnace emissions, high-temperature particulate, and large air volumes from Basic Oxygen Furnaces (BOFs), Electric Arc Furnaces (EAFs), and ladle operations
• Rolling Mills – Mill scale, abrasive particulate, and heavy dust loading from hot and cold rolling processes
• Foundries & Casting Operations – Sand, fines, smoke, and metallic dust from molding, pouring, shakeout, and finishing
• Metal Fabrication & Finishing – Welding fumes, cutting and grinding dust, plasma and laser particulate, and surface treatment byproducts
• Aluminum & Non-Ferrous Metals – Fine particulate, oxide dust, and process-specific challenges tied to lighter metals and alloys
