Reliable Detection and Protection for Agricultural Environments
—In agriculture, where those who feed the nation face daily exposure to airborne contaminants, harmful gases, dust, and chemical vapours, reliable protection is essential. Dräger’s trusted safety solutions are purpose‑built for these environments—delivering high‑performance respiratory protection, precise gas detection, and dependable escape technology that safeguard farmworkers through every season.
Industries

Grain Handling and Silos
Grain handling and silo work creates heavy dust and confined‑space hazards. Safe entry and work require continuous atmospheric monitoring, proper ventilation, and protective equipment. Dräger detection instruments, respiratory protection, and safety support services help ensure workers can monitor air quality, control dust-related risks, and safely manage confined‑space operations.

Livestock and Poultry Houses
Livestock and poultry farming environments are often exposed to hazardous gases such as ammonia, hydrogen sulfide, methane, and carbon dioxide, which can originate from animal waste, feed storage, and manure management processes. Monitoring these gases is crucial for ensuring the health and safety of both animals and workers.

Fumigation and Chemical Mixing
Fumigation and chemical mixing in agriculture use toxic substances like phosphine or methyl bromide to control pests and diseases. To ensure worker safety and prevent harmful exposure, reliable detection and protection equipment are essential during these operations.
