The compressed air is very dangerous to use for cleaning our cloths in any industry.
In a fraction of second it can damage our eyes. With the speed of air the retina in our eyevwill get perforated, and the air can cause perforation in our ear drum too. If the compressed air got blew in any cut wound, then the area will get swelling.
So the Usage of compressed air for cleaning the cloth should be avoided.

First of all thanks a lot for your valuable input into the thread...
In our plant, the loaders & packers of cement bags are using compressed air for dust cleaning from their body parts as well as from cloths... As per your posting, it's unsafe... So what suitable alternative we should suggest to them? Can you please let me know the answer?
