It is necessary because gluing, especially with spray adhesive or contact adhesive, releases solvent fumes and adhesive mist. Without exhaust ventilation, these residues remain in the air that the operator breathes, spreading throughout the factory and soiling parts and equipment.<\/p>\n<p>When discussing exhaust fumes in industry, the first thing that usually comes to mind is painting. But gluing has very similar risks. In the furniture, upholstery, mattress, and many other industrial lines, glue application happens every day, often on open workbenches. Below, we explain why a glue application booth makes a difference in safety, cleanliness, and finish.<\/p>\n<h2 id=\"quais-os-riscos-de-aplicar-cola-sem-exaust\u00e3o\">What are the risks of applying glue without thorough ventilation?<\/h2>\n<p>Many industrial adhesives, such as contact adhesives and solvent-based adhesives, release fumes during application and drying. When the adhesive is sprayed, it also forms a mist of particles in the air. Without a proper adhesive application booth, this creates problems on several fronts:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Operator health:<\/strong> Solvent fumes become concentrated in the breathing zone of those working at the workbench.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Fire hazard:<\/strong> Solvent vapors accumulated in enclosed spaces increase the risk of ignition.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Dirt in the factory:<\/strong> The glue mist settles on floors, walls, machines, and nearby parts.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Defects in the parts:<\/strong> Dust and airborne debris cling to fresh glue, compromising the finish and adhesion.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Odor in the environment:<\/strong> The smell of solvent spreads to other areas of the factory.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>The use of PPE remains important, but exhaust ventilation acts sooner: it removes the contaminant from the air at its source, close to where it is generated. To review basic personal protective equipment, see Koria&#039;s post on the subject. <a href=\"https:\/\/koria.com.br\/en\/blog\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer nofollow\">Essential PPE for painters<\/a>.<\/p>\n<h2 id=\"como-funciona-uma-cabine-para-aplica\u00e7\u00e3o-de-cola\">How does a glue application booth work?<\/h2>\n<p>The glue application booth functions like a workbench with front exhaust. The operator stands outside, facing the workpiece. The exhaust fan pulls air from the work area into the booth, passing it through filters, and carries vapors and mist away from the operator.<\/p>\n<p>The main components are:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Support bench:<\/strong> It supports the parts during the application of the glue.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Front filtering:<\/strong> It traps the adhesive mist before it reaches the exhaust fan and ducts.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Exhaust fan:<\/strong> It generates an airflow that captures vapors and particles at the source.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Interior lighting:<\/strong> It helps the operator to see the glue layer and perform quality control.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Closed structure:<\/strong> It concentrates the airflow in the application area and prevents dispersion to the rest of the factory.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>In <a href=\"https:\/\/koria.com.br\/en\/produto\/cabine-para-aplicacao-de-cola\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer nofollow\">Koria glue application booth<\/a>, The structure consists of thermoacoustic panels coated in carbon steel with epoxy paint. Filtration is a double barrier system, with a fiberglass filter and inertial filter, and exhaust is provided by a centrifugal fan. Lighting is LED with an IP-65 rating, and the electrical panel complies with NR-10 standards. The cabin also has an hour meter to monitor usage and schedule maintenance.<\/p>\n<h2 id=\"onde-a-cabine-para-aplica\u00e7\u00e3o-de-cola-\u00e9-usada\">Where is the glue application booth used?<\/h2>\n<p>Any process that frequently applies adhesive can benefit from a glue application booth. The most common examples are:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Furniture industry:<\/strong> Bonding of laminates, edge banding, panels and components.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Upholstered furniture and mattresses:<\/strong> Bonding foams, blankets and fabrics, usually with spray adhesive.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Footwear and artifacts:<\/strong> Bonding of soles, leather, and synthetic materials.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Automotive and implement industry:<\/strong> Bonding of interior linings, insulation and finishes.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Industrial lines in general:<\/strong> Assembling parts that combine gluing and other processes.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Koria&#039;s booth is available in different sizes, from 2 m to 8 m wide, and can be customized according to the part and process.<\/p>\n<h2 id=\"benef\u00edcios-da-cabine-para-aplica\u00e7\u00e3o-de-cola\">Benefits of the booth for applying glue<\/h2>\n<p><strong>For the operator:<\/strong><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Less exposure to solvent fumes and glue mist.<\/li>\n<li>Greater comfort in the workplace, with good lighting and less odor.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><strong>For the factory:<\/strong><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>A cleaner environment, with no glue residue on floors, machines, or nearby parts.<\/li>\n<li>Reduced risk of accumulation of flammable vapors.<\/li>\n<li>Less odor spreading to other areas.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><strong>For the product:<\/strong><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Less dust and particles sticking to the fresh glue.<\/li>\n<li>Greater visual control over the adhesive layer, which helps to standardize the application.<\/li>\n<li>Less rework due to poor adhesion or a dirty finish.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h2 id=\"posso-usar-uma-cabine-de-pintura-para-aplicar-cola\">Can I use a paint booth to apply glue?<\/h2>\n<p>It&#039;s a common question.
