Simas Filters ensures the working environment for crane operators at Aarhus Port.
Handling bulk goods in ports releases dust and gases, which can pose a health risk for crane operators exposed to harmful particles. We present an innovative filtration solution that ensures clean and healthy air for workers in vulnerable environments.

Since its founding in 1984, Simas Filters has been deeply committed to promoting clean air across various sectors. With an innovative approach and customized solutions, we have established ourselves as a key player in the fight against air pollution and the improvement of air quality. This is also demonstrated in the maritime sector, where Simas Filters' contributions have had a significant impact, from the cruise industry to the broader maritime industry.
Innovative filtration solution for Aarhus Port
In the busy port environments, where tons of bulk goods are handled daily, vapors and gases hang heavily in the air. Therefore, it is crucial that crane cabins are equipped with the right filter to ensure that crane operators are not exposed to particles and harmful substances.
Simas Filters has contributed to improving the working conditions at Aarhus Port by upgrading their existing filtration systems, resulting in a healthier working environment for crane operators. With an innovative four-stage filter cassette system, we have created a new, efficient filter that carefully removes both dust and invisible harmful substances, ensuring that these do not enter the crane cabins:
"We quickly designed an effective solution for urgent air filtration issues in the cranes at the port, and the new filter has clearly improved air quality for the crane operators and reduced the risk of disruptions in operations," explains Alex Jakobsen, Technical Consultant at Simas Filters, adding: "It is crucial that our customers can operate efficiently and maintain a healthy work environment. It can have enormous consequences if work is hindered by poor conditions, or in the worst case, halted during inspections."
More solutions on the way
Our vision is clear: to provide filtration solutions that meet the unique conditions found in the maritime industry. With a strong commitment to innovation and customized solutions, Simas Filters aims to address the changing needs of the maritime sector.
Building on the success at Aarhus Port, we plan to transfer the technology to other maritime areas, such as coastal installations, which must be protected from the specific challenges posed by the climate, such as ice formation and moisture, which have previously crippled equipment and hindered production.
