Whether you're expanding operations or upgrading outdated equipment, contact our Texas-based team to schedule a site assessment or request a quote today.
Texas is home to over 17,000 manufacturing facilities, many of which produce airborne particulates from welding, grinding, and powder coating operations. For example, an automotive parts plant in Arlington may need localized extraction for robotic welding cells to prevent metal fume exposure. Our cartridge dust collectors are ideal for capturing fine metal particulates common in these high-throughput environments.
In cities like Houston and Dallas, construction dust—especially silica from concrete cutting—can pose serious health and OSHA compliance risks. Texas has over 1.2 million construction workers, with many working on road, bridge, and infrastructure projects requiring mobile or portable dust control. Our systems help meet OSHA 29 CFR 1926.1153 requirements for respirable crystalline silica, reducing airborne hazards on job sites.
Texas ranks among the top states for agricultural output, with over 125 million acres of farmland and major feed & grain processing operations in Amarillo, Lubbock, and Waco. These facilities often deal with combustible dust from corn, wheat, and soybean processing, making explosion-proof dust collection critical. Our equipment supports compliance with NFPA 61 and prevents buildup in silos and feed mills.
In the oil and gas sector, dust collection plays a crucial role at pipeline construction sites, compressor stations, and heavy equipment fracking operations. These environments generate dust from sand handling, vehicle movement, and equipment staging, particularly in West Texas and the Eagle Ford Shale. Our heavy-duty systems are engineered to perform in rugged, remote locations while supporting EPA and TCEQ air permitting requirements.
From tortilla production in San Antonio to sugar packaging in El Paso, food processors in Texas must control flour dust, sugar dust, and other fine ingredients. Improper collection can lead to contamination and combustible dust risks, especially in dry mixing areas. A.C.T. systems use food-safe filter media and NFPA-compliant designs to protect both product integrity and worker safety.
Addressing state air quality laws can be challenging, but A.C.T. Dust Collectors makes it easier for Texas businesses to stay compliant. We help our clients understand and meet standards set by the Texas Commission on Environmental Quality (TCEQ) and applicable sections of the Texas Administrative Code (TAC). Our dust collection systems are designed with regulatory compliance in mind, reducing emissions and helping businesses avoid fines or shutdowns.
For example, many Texas facilities must maintain air permits under 30 TAC Chapter 106, which governs emissions from various industrial sources. A properly sized and maintained dust collection system can be the difference between passing and failing a TCEQ inspection. We help our customers select the right equipment, maintain records, and stay “audit-ready” with minimal disruption to their daily operations.
We also support businesses seeking to submit or renew TCEQ Standard Permits or Permits by Rule (PBRs). Our team understands the documentation and performance standards required and can advise on system specs that meet or exceed thresholds for particle filtration and emission control. For more information, we recommend visiting the TCEQ's Air Permits page or contacting us for personalized guidance and documentation support.

With A.C.T., you’re investing in a partnership built on trust, technical expertise, and local insight. We make it easy to stay productive, compliant, and supported at every step.
Texas industries often deal with a mix of fine particulates and larger debris, so a MERV 15 filter is ideal for most applications, including welding, woodworking, and agriculture. These filters offer a strong balance of efficiency and durability, especially in dusty, high-volume environments.
In dry, dusty areas like West Texas or during peak summer production, filters may need to be replaced every 3 to 6 months, depending on use. Humidity and particulate load also play a role, so regular inspection is key to maintaining airflow and performance.
Yes, A.C.T. offers installation, training, and maintenance services across Texas, from Houston to Lubbock and beyond. Our local support network ensures quick response times and a deeper understanding of your regional challenges.
Absolutely—our dust collection systems are designed to meet or exceed TCEQ and EPA air quality standards. We also help businesses document performance specs for permitting and inspection readiness
It depends on your dust load, application type, and facility size, but we can help you calculate your CFM (cubic feet per minute) needs to recommend the right unit. Visit our sizing guide or contact us for a customized recommendation.
Clean air is essential for protecting your team, extending equipment life, and running a more efficient operation. At A.C.T. Dust Collectors, we’re proud to serve Texas businesses with locally supported, high-performance systems that help you meet TCEQ standards and maintain a safe work environment.
