the aftermath of Covid-19, there were noticeable signs of indoor air pollution fatigue – people grew tired of talking about it. The impact of the pandemic however, heightened everyone’s awareness of the environment they lived and worked in, and accelerated research into IAQ and IEQ.”
He continued: “Small changes in the way we manage and maintain our indoor environments can make a significant impact on occupant wellbeing and reducing energy consumption. The introduction of BS 40102-1:2023 last year was a positive step forward in helping building owners address poor indoor air quality.
“One of the most substantial advantages that BS 40102- 1:2023 brings to the table is the potential for cost savings. By adopting the guidelines outlined in the standard, including effectively monitoring and evaluating building data, building owners can optimise their systems to function more efficiently, ultimately saving on energy

costs and contributing to a more sustainable future. What is needed now is more direction for building owners in selecting the most appropriate ventilation solutions to address the specific needs of a building – as no two buildings are the same – and this is where we can help.”
