Poor air quality is a growing global issue, impacting the health and wellbeing of billions internationally. Our air quality team plays a role in minimising emissions and exposure to air pollution in the built environment through expert design input and comprehensive assessments.<\/h3>\n\n\n\n
<\/div>\n\n\n\n

Air pollution is associated with numerous health impacts and creates far-reaching issues, including economic impact, ecological degradation and crop destruction. We must strive to improve air quality on a local, regional, and international scale to protect health and help build towards a more sustainable and biodiverse future. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

In recent years, air quality has become a material consideration in the planning system. Robust and thorough assessment, including technical analysis, is required to demonstrate that new developments do not worsen local air quality or introduce additional exposure in an area of poor air quality. In some locations, certain new developments must now demonstrate how they actively improve local air quality.\u200b<\/p>\n\n\n\n

海角视频’s specialist scientists and consultants have extensive and in-depth experience in addressing air quality issues, offering expert advice through the full life-cycle of a project: from design to planning, to construction and finally occupancy. Using state-of-the-art air quality dispersion models in our assessments, we work closely with transportation, energy, utilities and building services teams to find innovative solutions to minimise air quality impact and safeguard the health of future site users.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The most effective way to achieve this is to identify air quality constraints and opportunities early, whether during site acquisition or through the design process and ensure that the emerging design is air quality sensitive. We provide a wide range of services to private and public sector clients in the UK and internationally.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n

Indoor air quality<\/h3>\n\n\n\n
<\/div>\n\n\n\n

Good indoor air quality is essential to provide a healthy and productive environment, which is why it forms part of several building certification schemes including BREEAM, WELL, RESET and LEED, as well as increasingly becoming a design consideration.\u200b<\/p>\n\n\n\n

We provide advice to our clients to allow them to have the best possible indoor air quality in their developments. This can be in the form of an indoor air quality plan which plays a role in BREEAM certification, but also can provide a strategy and framework to create healthy buildings and safeguard the health and wellbeing of building occupants. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Odour assessment<\/h3>\n\n\n\n
<\/div>\n\n\n\n

Odour impacts can lead to loss of amenity, complaints and can even amount to a statutory nuisance. Where odour is likely to be an issue at a new development, we are able to assess odour exposure levels that will be experienced by users and provide advice on mitigation as required. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
