Pinovo Vacuum Blasting
Dust-free abrasive blasting (ATEX)
Page last modified
April 11 2024
ATEX certified dust-free blasting equipment. A range of front-end tools to suit different geometries (such as pipes, corners, edges and flat surfaces), together with powerful vacuum blast units that re-use grit, make the Pinovo systems virtually dust-free. Suitable for spot repairs and pipes.
Our tools include:
- PiConnect (all-round tool)
- Pico Pipe (clamp-on pipe tool)
- PiHab (mini habitat for dust-free open blasting)
- PiBox (for flat surfaces such as walls/roofs)
