From OSHA to NFPA: The 2025 Guide to Air Quality Compliance

Ryan Gellner

Compliance Isn’t Optional - It’s Operational

OSHA governs worker exposure. NFPA governs fire and explosion risks. Together, they define the standards for air safety across manufacturing and industrial environments.

The Difference in a Nutshell

  • OSHA: Focuses on employee health and permissible exposure limits (PEL).
  • NFPA: Focuses on dust collection system safety - explosion vents, duct design, and fire prevention.

The Risks of Neglect

Ignoring either standard risks fines, insurance cancellations, or shutdowns.
DCM’s certified technicians ensure every system installed or serviced meets or exceeds compliance - including NFPA 484 and OSHA 1910.

Why Partnering with Experts Matters

Our partnerships with Absolent and Diversitech give clients access to equipment that’s pre-tested and code-ready. DCM handles installation, service, and documentation - so you’re audit-proof year-round.

“Compliance isn’t a burden. It’s protection - for your people, your reputation, and your future.”
