What is Indoor Air Quality?

Indoor air quality (IAQ) refers to the air condition within an enclosed space, such as a building, residence, or workplace. It encompasses various factors, including pollutants, allergens, temperature, humidity, and ventilation.

Successful workplaces and institutions, spanning factories, office buildings, and hospitals, go beyond exceptional services and business partnerships to prosper. They prioritise providing access to high-quality air for their employees, staff, and visitors. An essential initial step in ensuring seamless operations in any workplace involves maintaining the well-being of the people working there.

How does it work?

Overview of the Process

A diligent and well-informed facility manager or building owner is anticipated to conduct risk assessments and condition surveys consistently. The emphasis on air quality aligns with the building manager's duty to adhere to the Workplace, Health, Safety, and Welfare Regulations Approved Code of Practice 1992. Relying on our competence and expertise can facilitate compliance with these regulations, ensuring an environment of health and safety.

The benefits of Indoor Air Quality

Healthier Working Environment

IAQ testing identifies potential pollutants, such as mould, allergens, volatile organic compounds (VOCs), and more. This knowledge allows you to improve your indoor air, reducing health risks for your employees and clients/customers.

Increased Productivity

Clean air in your workspace can enhance focus and productivity. Poor IAQ can lead to fatigue and discomfort, while fresh, clean air can boost your energy and overall well-being.

Customised Solutions
