The demand for buildings to achieve BREEAM certification, along with the increasing awareness of sick building syndrome (SBS), has made the monitoring of indoor air quality essential to maintain a healthy and productive workplace.

There are many different factors, ranging from airflow, lighting, temperature and humidity that can have a negative effect on the quality of air in a building. Through commercial and industrial processes, employees are often exposed to a variety of potentially harmful pollutants and substances including bacteria, dust, fumes, fungi and harmful gases.

Build Check’s team of specialist engineers will provide a professional testing service, not only to ensure legislative compliance, but also for the safety and wellbeing of your employees. As part of the testing process, we will:

• investigate the possible causes of poor air quality eg. poor ventilation, pollutants or problems within the working environment
• analyse the effects on working conditions
• use the results to recommend any corrective actions
