Lalit, 

I have looked into a new extraction system for the paint booths as you requested. The average cost per paint booth would be approximately $1200 for the technology and fitting and the lead time is around 14 weeks. 

As I emphasised previously, fitting an extraction system does not offer a financial benefit as it does not save paint and workers still have to wear protective equipment when operating in any of the 3 paint booths. Therefore there is no payback figure I can provide.  

Paint booths do, however, reduce GHG emissions to the air but as we do not undertake any GHG emissions monitoring I am unable to quantify what potential savings in emissions could be. 

Let me know if you need to discuss this further.
