Festool has announced it will launch two new products in October aimed at building greater efficiency into the jobsite – the MX-A dust-extraction attachment and the Systainer3 CENTROTEC Organizer.

Jobsites are notoriously challenging environments for contractors. Dust and noise hazards present obstacles to construction contractors as well as the general public within the vicinity of projects. However, the release of OSHA’s silica control standards prompted construction contractors to counteract the risks that this dust may present. 

Festool USA, providing precision-engineered power tool solutions for nearly a century, has unveiled the newest addition to its lineup of state-of-the-art dust extractors with the all new CT 15 Dust Extractor.

The only universal tool of its kind on the market, the cordless Milwaukee M12 Hammervac Universal Dust Extractor Kit delivers HEPA-standard debris filtration at the lowest cost of ownership.
