Staying Connected in a Unconnected World

It’s apparent that we can all safely say that social media has taken over the communication world. “More than 80% of the 4.66 billion people on the planet with access to the internet are social network users… and this share is expected to grow” (Jens, 2020, pp.1). How wonderful, yet crazy, is it to be a click of a button and a typed out message away to talking with a friend in Europe? With social media’s ability to stay up to date by the minute, it is the preferred way to communicate for many individuals—especially in the midst of a pandemic. And, not just personally, but professionally as well.

With social media being a time consuming aspect of our daily lives, it can be a valuable tool for both individuals and businesses as well. Social media is a common trend that many businesses, no matter the industry, have adapted to over the last decade or so. For a business this is a way to promote brand image. As a consumer, it’s a way to not only see what your favorite businesses are posting about daily, but also to effectively communicate with them when needed.

At Nelson-Jameson, we think growing our social media platforms is an excellent way to open up more two-way communication with our customers. We encourage our customers to exchange ideas and interact with us on our Facebook, Twitter, LinkedIn, and Youtube accounts. Our goal is to increase customer engagements through our posts, shares, and likes. As a leader in the food, dairy, and beverage industries, we want to keep you updated with innovative technologies, methods, tips of the trade, and general updates about Nelson-Jameson. Our product managers, technical service representatives, and account managers want to share their wealth of expertise with you, and our social media platforms provide us the ability to do just that.

We hope to interact with you soon on our other social media platforms, and think you will find a variety of valuable information about safety, sanitation, janitorial, material handling, processing and flow, laboratory and QA/QC, and more!

Product Focus: Nilfisk Vacuums, Explosion-Proof Industrial Safety

D07F8194While sitting and reading this, you can probably look around and find something dusty. Maybe it is the top of your screen or the top of your keyboard. Dust can be annoying. Dusting is a necessary annoyance. It may be hard to think of it as a critical hazard, though. However, “dust” takes on a whole new meaning when it comes to plant maintenance. If you are one of the 30,000 U.S facilities at risk for combustible dust explosions, dust may be a significant threat to your employees and your operation.

According to Nilfisk Industrial Vacuums, “Regardless of industry or material, combustible dust can be formed from milling, sanding, grinding, crushing, cutting – or simply handling product in powder form.” One might not realize the potential danger combustible dusts possess and or even what exactly is considered “combustible.”  For example, grain dust, perhaps a harmless sounding material to the layman, is “nine times as explosive as coal dust.” Such insights should cause us all in the food industry to step back and think about the safety of our employees, our operations, and the materials that surround us. Unfortunately, the threat extends beyond explosions, too. In fact, dust can cause fires as well, which are “the most common dust-related incidents.”

If you are curious or want to know more about combustible dust explosions and precautions used to prevent such occurrences click here.

Presently, Nilfisk and Nelson-Jameson, Inc. are working together to bring you a line of vacuums to combat this threat. Nilfisk’s line of Explosion-Proof Electric and Pneumatic Vacuums are built to take on combustible dust, helping to improve sanitation and assisting in complying with OSHA standards.  You can see these two lines of vacuums and numerous other Nilfisk vacuums and accessories in this catalog. Nelson-Jameson product managers can also assist you in finding the right vacuum and accessories for your facility. Give us a call today at 1-800-826-8302 to order or for more info.
