Extensive scope of accredited testing methods
Until recently, dust fall-out monitoring equipment, which adhered to the strict ASTM D1739–98 regulations, were difficult or nearly impossible to come by in South Africa.
Dustco wanted to make a difference...
Realising this need, Dustco set out to create and manufacture fall-out dust solutions in South Africa that were 100% compliant to the legislation pertaining to the “Standard Test Method for Collection and Measurement of Dustfall”.
Aquatico only uses the Dustco units for dust deposition monitoring.
