Preparation bays and paint mixing rooms
Keep sanding dust and mixing out of the booth. Extracted prep bays and ventilated mixing rooms, designed to work with your spray booth.

Preparation bays
Sanding, masking and priming create dust that should never reach the spray booth. A preparation bay gives that work its own extracted, well-lit space next to the booth, so the booth is used only for paint and the work waiting for it is ready to go.
Our prep bays use filtered ceiling plenums with lighting, side curtains that slide back for access, and downdraft extraction through floor grids on a raised galvanised base with ramps, so no pit is needed.
- Downdraft extraction, about 15 000 m³/h per bay
- 300 mm galvanised steel base with ramps and grids, or set over an existing pit
- Ceiling plenum with filter media and integrated lights
- Heavy-duty PVC curtains on tracks between bays
- Single bays or lines of bays with shared extraction
- Can be converted to a spray booth later by adding walls and doors
Paint mixing rooms
A mixing room keeps paint, thinners and the mixing scheme out of the booth and away from the workshop. We build insulated, ventilated mixing rooms with extraction and lighting suited to solvent vapours, often as an extension of the spray booth so the painter steps straight through.
