Glass
Discover Dupuy’s vacuum solutions to keep your glass manufacturing and processing plant clean, safe and efficient-a demanding industry that needs specific solutions.
Our industrial vacuum cleaners integrate and adapt perfectly to each stage of the production process. We boast a range of solutions to optimize raw material preparation: from silica sand melting to glass cooling. We enable the recovery of silica waste by allowing it to be recycled during the production process, the collection of glass fragments, the extraction of toxic substances, or the transport of glass dust outside the facilities with great benefit in terms of yield and an improvement in overall efficiency.

Manufacturing processes that include the use of ovens may involve combustible particles and materials that pose a potential health hazard to workers and consumers. Because they are the main tool in theglass industry, furnaces must be thoroughly cleaned to ensure high levels of performance and quality, as well as to maintain compliance with safety regulations. Thorough cleaning in the shortest time is possible thanks to a Dupuy vacuum cleaner that withstands high temperatures equipped with a specific accessory kit (metal hose and a specific NOMEX filter).
Flue gas treatment duct cleaning
Multiple production processes in the glass industry can release a variety of pollutants, such as particulate matter, nitrogen oxides, and sulfur compounds, which can accumulate in ducts and reduce system efficiency. Regular duct cleaning is essential to maintain proper operating efficiency, prevent damage to the ducts themselves, and comply with current regulations.
Silos and hoppers
Silos require thorough cleaning to remove any residue, prevent agglomeration of raw materials, and ensure a steady and uninterrupted flow of materials. Hopper cleaning, on the other hand, is critical to prevent clogging of materials, maintain accuracy in batching, and reduce the risk of contamination between different batches of raw materials. Such cleanings can be ensured through effective vacuum systems specifically designed for the industry; regular cleaning helps prevent operational problems, improve product quality, and adhere to safety and hygiene standards.
Crushing zone
Removal of fragments and dust in glass shattering areas is crucial because such residues can be hazardous if not managed properly. Keeping the crushing area clean ensures that machines and equipment operate optimally, avoiding downtime and reducing wear and tear due to the accumulation of glass waste, and also prevents the risk of injury to workers. Regular removal of glass deb ris and waste materials helps maintain a clean work environment, which is critical to ensuring the quality of the final product. Dupuy vacuum systems facilitate this task with industry-identified vacuum cleaners that include particularly abrasion-resistant filters and accessories.

Dupuy offers vacuum cleaners for line cleaning, which is done without interrupting or stopping production, especially essential in industrial environments where continuity is essential. Particularly useful for preventing the accumulation of dust, residues and other contaminants on machinery and in production areas, thus preventing potential clogging or malfunction; essential in areas such as float or processed glass production, where contamination and residue accumulation can affect the quality of the final product. Dupuy vacuum systems facilitate this task with particularly abrasion-resistant filters and accessories and ensure a production environment that complies with safety and hygiene regulations.
