Quantifying the sustainability of your building
with TakeAir!

With Biospheric Air Treatment, we offer a more practical, approachable, and easier pathway in achieving certain levels of certification for BREEAM and WELL programs.

The value of a sustainable building is a wide topic that receives much attention from a wide range of actors and industries. The process of quantifying it is ever-evolving as its value of it is constantly growing and adding new elements.

The business case is maximising sustainability. And the air we breathe has a vast amount of untapped potential to do so. Air is a part of a building’s life cycle from the first stone to the last. Maximising sustainability with air has begun with a paradigm shift where health and productivity take the lead. New regulations are already pushing for stricter norms such as the Revision of the Ambient Air Quality Directives by the EU Parliament. To manage and control these parameters we have biotechnology to connect with the tiniest matter and generate real impact.

Several certificate companies in environmentally conscious building design such as BREEAM and WELL lead the way in quantifying such sustainability.

With TakeAir we offer a system and platform on which certain levels of certification can be obtained with more ease and efficiency, next to maximising sustainability efforts for the air. Creating a future-proof platform which can evolve with the innovations of its time.

SDG 9: Build resilient infrastructure, promote inclusive and sustainable industrialization and foster innovation

The biotechnology of TakeAir helps in promoting transparency for the built environment and the air people are breathing. We assess the indoor environment in relation to the outdoor environment and thus span our scope and impact well beyond the built environment alone.

This assessment creates an opportunity to restrict evaluate and restrict hazardous elements that would otherwise pollute or contaminate more than needed. Minimizing negative impacts on human and environmental health.

Our system is built to continuously support sustainable activities and keeps building on modernized infrastructure trough air quality, sensors and dashboard systems.
