Blast Recovery System (BRS)

The BRS system uses a wide range abrasive media to prepare concrete and steel surfaces. Applications include lead and asbestos abatement, indoor blasting, bridge and road maintenance, building restoration and more.

The Schmidt BRS can blast and vacuum simultaneously, effectively eliminating offensive dust clouds, poor visibility and costly cleanup. It can also perform either feature independently. The portable system is ideally suited for jobs where traditional open-air blasting is prohibited, or is not possible or practical.
