Affordable Blast Rooms: Customizable Solutions for Efficiency and Compliance

At Rodeco Metal Finishing, we understand that every company whether large or small has to balance operational efficiency with budget constraints. For businesses that rely on blasting for surface preparation, coating, or cleaning, investing in the right blast room can be a critical decision. But what if you could get a high-quality, customizable blast room that fits your budget, meets all OSHA requirements, and is easy to install? Let us show you how we can make it a reality.

Rodeco Offers Empire Abrasive Blast Room Equipment

Empire blast room equipment is your cost-effective, modular solution that is a game-changer for any businesses looking for high-performance blast rooms without the steep cost. Whether you’re a new company just getting started or a well-established business aiming to reduce overhead, Empire’s pre-engineered blast rooms provide customizable options that allow you to tailor the room to your exact needs while keeping your budget in check.

Customization Options to Fit Your Needs and Budget

A key advantage of the Empire Pre-Engineered Blast Room is its exceptional flexibility. Unlike custom-built blast rooms that often come with a hefty upfront cost and complicated installation, Empire’s pre-engineered rooms let you choose the features that best fit your business needs. You can opt for only what’s necessary, skipping the extras. You could also choose to include additional features that enhance performance, all while staying within budget.

1. Size Matters: Choose What Fits

Empire offers a range of standard sizes to fit various operational scales. Whether you’re blasting small parts or large equipment, you can select a room that meets your exact needs. This customization prevents you from overpaying for extra space you don’t need or cramping your operations into a too-small area.

2. Media Recovery Systems 

Empire provides a range of abrasive recovery systems to fit various blasting requirements, from the budget-friendly Pneumatic Recovery System (PRS) to more advanced mechanical options. The PRS, which utilizes the same cyclonic reclaimer found in Empire’s Pro-Finish® blast cabinets, offers an economical solution for recovering abrasives without the need to dig a pit or install an auger system. 

The abrasive media recovery system provides precise control over media recycling, enabling tailored recovery of fine, medium, or coarse materials. These systems effectively separate and eliminate unwanted particles from the blasting process, ensuring superior performance and material consistency.

For businesses looking for more efficiency, Empire’s partial or full recovery floors provide a mechanical solution that includes a bucket elevator and drum separator, or media air wash, to quickly recycle large volumes of media. The mechanical systems vary in cost based on how much labor you want to eliminate, with options for both smaller and larger-scale operations, allowing you to choose the system that best balances performance and budget.

3. Dust Collection Systems

A dust control system is not only a regulatory concern but also a health and safety priority. Empire’s blast rooms come with customizable dust collection options, ensuring compliance with OSHA standards while maintaining a safe, comfortable working environment. With a range of systems available, Empire makes it easy to control dust, reduce contamination, and protect your workforce.

4. OSHA Approved Safety Features

Each Empire’s pre-engineered blast rooms come equipped with integrated ventilation, proper lighting, secure access points, and optional abrasive blast PPE. This means our team will have everything they need for a safe work environment without the additional cost of custom modifications or add-ons. Plus, Empire includes all necessary abrasive blast PPE, such as respirators, blast suits, air filters, and CO/gas monitors to ensure comprehensive safety. However, if your company already provides its own personal protective equipment, you can opt out of this package to reduce costs even further.

 High-Quality Performance Without the High-Cost

Unlike traditional field-erected rooms, Empire’s modular design allows for quicker installations, reducing labor expenses and downtime. In fact, pre-engineered blast rooms can be installed in just days, compared to weeks for custom-built options.

When you choose Empire’s pre-engineered blast rooms, our dedicated service division is here to handle the installation, startup, and comprehensive training for both operators and maintenance teams. This ensures your team is fully prepared to operate the new system efficiently and safely from day one.

Control Costs Without Compromising on Quality

The biggest advantage of choosing an Empire Pre-Engineered Blast Room is the ability to reduce costs in several key areas, without sacrificing quality. Here’s how:

• Reduced Installation Costs: There’s no need for complex construction, which means lower installation costs overall. Reach out to Rodeco Metal Finishing to discuss how we can handle the installation of your new PEB room.
• Lower Operating Costs: With a more efficient recovery system, you can reuse abrasives, making it possible to use more cost-effective options while reducing waste and disposal fees.
• Compliance and Safety: Empire’s pre-engineered blast rooms are designed to meet OSHA standards, so you can avoid costly fines or corrective actions. 

This cost-effective solution not only benefits your bottom line today, but also sets your company up for long-term success by creating a safer, more efficient work environment that can easily scale as your business expands.
