Measuring indoor air pollutants

The quality of indoor air directly affects people's well-being and performance. Indoor air tests are particularly useful when addressing mood disorders, health issues, or odor complaints.

Our comprehensive indoor air measurements analyze air quality by identifying and assessing pollutants from organic and inorganic compounds. These substances can be emitted from sources such as floor coverings, coatings, adhesives, building materials, or furniture.

We also conduct tests for fibers like asbestos or artificial mineral fibers, wood preservatives, and biological substances when mold is suspected.

Our results provide valuable insights into emission sources, enabling a thorough health assessment of indoor air. For this purpose, we use the guideline and reference values for indoor air established by the Federal Environment Agency's Committee for Indoor Air Guide Values (AIR).
