Definition of "dust" by Spec Services:
« Back to Glossary Index Dust is a collection of fine, dry particles composed of various materials such as soil, pollen, dead skin cells, hair, textile fibers, paper fibers, and microscopic debris from environmental sources. It can also include particulate matter like soot, ash, or industrial pollutants. Dust particles are typically lightweight and can become airborne, settling on surfaces over time. In indoor environments, dust can accumulate on furniture, floors, electronics, and other objects, potentially causing allergies, respiratory issues, or damage to sensitive equipment if not properly managed. Regular cleaning and air filtration are essential to control dust buildup.
