Most people spend up to 90% of their time indoors, at home, at work, or in schools, yet indoor air quality (IAQ) is often overlooked. Inadequate ventilation, pollutants from building materials, cooking, cleaning products, and even outdoor air infiltration can all contribute to poor IAQ, affecting health, comfort, and wellbeing.
At Viridian Air, we specialise in indoor and outdoor air quality monitoring, helping individuals, organisations, and local authorities identify risks, develop solutions, and maintain clean, healthy environments.
Why Indoor Air Quality Should Not Be Ignored
Poor indoor air quality can cause:
- Respiratory irritation and allergies
- Headaches, fatigue, and poor concentration
- Worsening of conditions such as asthma
- Long-term risks due to exposure to particulate matter (PM₂.₅), volatile organic compounds (VOCs), and mould
With growing awareness around health and indoor environments, IAQ is no longer just a comfort issue, it’s a public health priority.
The Role of Air Purifiers
Air purifiers are increasingly used in homes, offices, healthcare settings, and classrooms. High-quality units with HEPA filters can remove:
- Fine particles (PM₂.₅ and PM₁₀)
- Pollen and allergens
- Some VOCs and odours
- Microorganisms such as bacteria and mould spores
However, it’s essential to select the right device for the space, and to understand that air purifiers complement but do not replace good ventilation and source control.
How Viridian Air Can Help
We offer expert support in managing indoor (and outdoor) air quality through:
✅ Indoor Air Quality Monitoring
We carry out professional assessments to monitor levels of:
- Particulate matter (PM₂.₅, PM₁₀)
- Carbon dioxide (CO₂) – a marker of ventilation
- VOCs and formaldehyde
- Temperature and relative humidity
Our service helps building managers, employers, schools, and homeowners understand where issues lie and how to address them effectively.
✅ Outdoor Air Quality Surveys
We assess outdoor pollutant levels, such as nitrogen dioxide (NO₂) and particulates, especially important near busy roads, industrial sites, or in urban development projects.
✅ Expert Advice and Reporting
We deliver clear, data-driven reports with recommendations tailored to your setting – whether it’s selecting the right purifier, improving ventilation, or assessing risks as part of an air quality strategy.
Take Control of Your Air
Whether you’re concerned about air quality in your home, office, school, or construction site, Viridian Air can provide accurate, professional monitoring and guidance.
