Vacuum machines for construction

On construction sites, material often has to be removed in places that traditional excavation or transport equipment has difficulty reaching. Naaktgeboren develops vacuum machines for the targeted suction and relocation of materials such as soil, sand, gravel, rubble and other building materials. From vacuum excavation and work in basements and crawl spaces to roof renovation and material removal on the construction site.

Applications in construction

In construction, vacuum technology can be used for a wide range of work in which soil or other material needs to be removed or moved in a targeted way. Even at locations that are difficult to access.

  • Soil suction & vacuum excavation

    For the controlled removal of soil and sand, for example when exposing cables, pipes, tree roots and foundation piles by vacuum excavation. Vacuum technology can also be used for soil remediation, for vacuuming out tubular piles or for clearing soil by suction on a construction site.

  • Basements & crawl spaces

    For removing soil, sand and other material from basements and crawl spaces. Vacuum technology can be used to empty or deepen spaces, to create or enlarge crawl spaces and as preparation for drainage work. Existing insulation material can also be removed. And of course, our machines also let you blow material back in to refill crawl spaces, if required.

  • Roofing & renovation

    In renovation work, vacuum technology can be used to remove and move materials on and around buildings. Think of removing or moving roof gravel and removing material from green roofs, insulation material and other renovation material.

  • Construction site & material removal

    For vacuuming up and removing rubble, construction waste, sand and gravel, among other materials. Vacuum technology also makes it possible to remove material from spaces that are difficult to reach, and can be used when cleaning construction sites. Our trucks are also used to vacuum up asbestos, using special filters.

The right machine starts with the application

No two applications are the same. The material, the work and the conditions on site determine which machine and configuration are most suitable. That is why we look at the application first, and then at the technology it requires.

  • What needs to be vacuumed up?

    The type of material and its properties are decisive in the choice of machine and configuration. Think, for example, of soil, sand, gravel, rubble or other building material.

  • What does the job require?

    The quantity of material, the required capacity, the suction distance and the working method also help determine what is technically needed.

  • What needs to happen to the material?

    Material does not always just need to be disposed of. Depending on the application, it can be discharged, moved or processed at another location.

  • Where will the machine be used?

    The working environment places demands on aspects such as accessibility, safety and the build of the machine.

Based on these factors, we determine which machine and configuration best suit the application.

Frequently asked questions about vacuum technology in construction

Which materials can be vacuumed up with a vacuum machine on a construction site?

Vacuum technology can be used for a wide range of materials, such as soil, sand, gravel, rubble and other loose material. Which materials can actually be handled depends on the properties and dimensions of the material and on the chosen machine and configuration.

Can vacuum technology be used to expose cables and pipes?

Yes. In vacuum excavation, soil is removed in a targeted way around cables, pipes and other underground infrastructure. Which working method and machine configuration are suitable depends on the location, the soil and the work.

Can a vacuum machine remove material from basements and crawl spaces?

Yes. Vacuum technology can be used to remove soil and sand, among other things, from basements and crawl spaces. This is particularly useful when the space is difficult to reach with conventional equipment.

Can vacuum technology be used in roof renovation?

Yes. Vacuum technology can be used to remove and move roof gravel, material from green roofs, and insulation and renovation material, for example. The suitable build depends on factors such as the material, accessibility and the required capacity.

Which vacuum machine is suitable for my construction application?

That depends on the work, the material and the location. Factors that play a role include the quantity and properties of the material, the required suction distance, accessibility and the way the material needs to be handled. On that basis, we determine which machine and configuration best suit the application.
