Airmid Healthgroup shares insights from the ENERGY IN BUILDINGS 2024 conference, highlighting Angela Southey’s research on IAQ validation, collaborations with Knauf Greece, and global leadership in healthier indoor environments
The ENERGY IN BUILDINGS 2024 conference, hosted by the ASHRAE Hellenic Chapter in Athens, brought together experts and innovators from across Europe, the Middle East, and Africa to share groundbreaking insights into sustainability, energy efficiency, and healthier indoor spaces. Airmid Healthgroup was honored to be part of this prestigious event, showcasing our leadership in aerobiology testing and product verification for healthier indoor environments.
Airmid’s Commitment to Independent Validation
At the heart of Airmid’s participation was a compelling presentation by our Chief Technical Officer, Angela Southey, PhD. Her research poster, “Independent Validation of Products Which Improve Indoor Air Quality”, highlighted the critical role of rigorous, science-backed testing in assessing HVAC filters and air-cleaning devices. By ensuring that these products deliver on their claims, we contribute to the development of healthier, more sustainable indoor environments.
As a global leader in aerobiology testing, Airmid is uniquely positioned to validate the performance of products under real-world conditions. Our Verified Healthier Air Mark assures consumers and industry professionals that products meet the highest standards for improving indoor air quality (IAQ). Angela’s presentation emphasized how scientific validation supports trust and innovation in the IAQ space.
