Fume extraction in the electronics industry is vital for a number of reasons. In order to protect sensitive electronic components, work must be completed in a certain environment, which requires reduced humidity and as little dust as possible. While this closed environment is good for the electronic components, it’s not so good for the manual technicians.
Fume extractors are important here because they remove the chemical fumes and vapours that build up during the manufacturing process. Cleaning agents, solvents and resins are all regularly used in the electronics industry. These fumes are often harmless in small amounts but can cause health issues over the long term.
Over the years, BOFA International has emerged as the market leader in fume extraction systems. With a range of innovative machines specifically designed for the electronics industry, BOFA has all bases covered when it comes to keeping employees safe from harmful fumes.

Some stages of manufacturing electronics might require manual soldering for more intricate and precise components. As we know, soldering releases fumes that contain a number of toxins and harmful chemicals. Employers have a responsibility to protect employees from the harmful fumes released during the soldering process
