INFOGRAPHY - 5 comfort features to optimize for better health at work

Ventilating workspaces

Regular ventilation of workspaces is one of the simplest and most effective ways of improving indoor air quality. On average, we spend 80-90% of our time in enclosed spaces where the air can quickly deteriorate. Proper ventilation renews the air and reduces concentrations of pollutants. Ideally, offices should be ventilated for at least 15 minutes a day. It's best to do this at the start of the day or after breaks. This simple practice not only helps to reduce carbon dioxide levels, it also helps to regulate humidity.

Regular cleaning of workspaces

Regular cleaning of offices and equipment is essential to maintain good air quality. Dust, dust mites and other allergens can accumulate on surfaces and affect employees' health. Using non-toxic cleaning products is also crucial. This prevents volatile organic compounds (VOCs) from being added to the air. Regular cleaning routines ensure better air quality. They also help to create a more pleasant working environment.

Avoid toxic products

Cleaning products can emit harmful substances that alter indoor air quality and also affect the body. So it's important to choose low-emission, non-toxic products to avoid any impact on the body. Paints, glues and cleaning products must be selected with care, taking into account their impact on indoor air and their potential to affect the body. Preferring materials and products that are certified ecological or have low-emission labels helps to preserve air quality and protect the body from the harmful effects of chemical substances. It also plays a crucial role in protecting the health of employees, preserving their well-being and reducing the risks to their bodies.

Check vents and ensure they're working properly

Ventilation systems, including air vents and filters, must be regularly maintained to ensure they work properly. Blocked air vents or clogged filters can reduce ventilation efficiency. This can lead to increased levels of pollutants in the air. Regular cleaning and replacement of filters contributes to better air quality and a more pleasant atmosphere.

Installing a Nexelec indoor air quality sensor

For proactive air quality management, installing a Nexelec indoor air quality sensor is an effective solution. Our sensors play a crucial role in optimizing working conditions by monitoring Indoor Air Quality (IAQ ) in offices in real time. These sensors detect various pollutants such as carbon dioxide (CO2), volatile organic compounds (VOCs), formaldehydes (HCHO) and fine particles (PM). They enable preventive measures to be taken to improve indoor air quality (IAQ) and protect health. By integrating these sensors, companies create healthier spaces. They also ensure greater employee safety and productivity.
