IAQ Issues in an industrial workplace
The Challenge:
An employer was concerned that particle and volatile organic compound (VOC) emissions from industrial processes might be spreading to adjacent office areas, potentially affecting employee health and productivity. They needed to determine whether their existing local exhaust ventilation (LEV) systems were effectively controlling these emissions and maintaining safe air quality throughout the workplace.
How We Can Help:
At IEQCheck, we specialise in addressing workplace IAQ concerns. Our approach included:
Conducting comprehensive air quality monitoring in both industrial and office areas to measure particle and VOC levels.
Evaluating the performance of existing LEV systems to ensure they were effectively capturing and controlling emissions.
Providing detailed reports and data-driven insights to confirm whether emissions were contained within the industrial area.
Offering recommendations to optimise ventilation systems and further improve air quality, if needed.
