RVT Group Expand into Australia

We are bringing our equipment and expertise to the Australian market

Having firmly established ourselves as the UK’s specialists in dust control, fume control, noise control and ventilation, we are now bringing our expertise and equipment to the Australian market.

Who are RVT Group?

RVT Group are not your average hire company; we work with you to understand the full scope of activities on site before recommending a fully compliant health hazard control solution that will protect the health of on-site workers. Our company mission is to protect the health of all those on site and nearby, and we work continuously to raise awareness of the devastating effects occupational health hazards can have on workers – now and later in life.

How can RVT Group support the Australian Market?

Construction sites around the world struggle to adequately manage dust, fumes and noise on site, however with the right expertise and guidance, sites can install temporary health hazard control solutions that will provide effective protection for all those working on site or nearby. Having built a credible reputation with the UK’s largest construction companies, RVT Group are now forming a local team of experts to support the Australian market.

Work Safe Australia reports:

  • 39% of Australian workers were exposed to airborne hazards in the workplace.
  • 23% of workers who reported being exposed to airborne hazards were not provided with adequate protective equipment.
  • From 2001 – 2015 there were 65,300 accepted claims for deafness in Australia. This averages out at 4,700 a year. The primary cause that lead to this deafness was long-term exposure to excessive noise at work.
  • Occupational diseases led to 10% of serious claims in 2014–15.

At RVT Group, we believe that everyone deserves to go home healthy, which is why, alongside a local team of consultants, we are introducing a comprehensive range of health hazard control equipment to Australia;

Dustex Dust Control

This wide range of powerful dust control solutions enables you to capture dust at source and extract it safely through multiple filter media. A number of our Dustex products are certified for fine filtration and hazardous dust types, including mineral dust. We also offer HEPA filtration that removes 99.9% of air pollutants, making our products ideal for sensitive environments. You can view our full range here.

Soundex Noise Control

Independently tested, our Soundex range offers the highest attenuation in the industry with noise reduction up to 35.6dB. Our patented designs are incredibly easy to assemble thanks to innovative Velcro connections, and made with both weather resistant and fire-resistant materials. Our noise curtains and quilts are also suitable for suspension from scaffolding and many other structures, fences or hoardings. You can view our full range here.

Ravex Fume Control

Our Ravex units provide highly effective fume filtration that will help you remain well within Work Exposure Standard (WES) limits. Ravex can extract a range of different fumes, including welding fumes, paint fumes, vapours or other volatile substances. For exhaust fumes, our diesel filter kits are suitable for most mobile and static diesel plant and machinery and available in a variety of sizes. These filters will help to ensure good air quality is maintained to keep your workers healthy. You can view our full range here. You can also view our exhaust fume control range here.

Ventex Ventilation Solutions

We offer both Axial and Centrifugal fans; both of which have different benefits depending on the situation. These fans are robust, easy to install and specifically designed to maintain high pressure airflow over long duct runs. They are ideal for multiple applications, including tunnel and basement ventilation, and can also be paired with our Dustex range to create negative pressure and prevent dust migration.
