Indoor Air Quality in Schools

Intertek recognizes that schools are not just centers for learning but environments where the health and wellbeing of students and staff are paramount. Understanding the unique dynamics of school environments, we offer solutions that not only address immediate IAQ concerns but also contribute to the long-term health and well-being of students and staff, and support energy savings as well.

Poor Indoor Air Quality (IAQ) can lead to a wide range of health issues, including respiratory problems, cardiovascular disorders, neurological complications, and more. These health risks, coupled with the potential for reduced attention and information retention, increased absenteeism, and strain relationships within the school community, underscores the need for a strategic and thorough approach to managing IAQ.

Intertek’s professional services in IAQ management for schools follows a holistic and methodical approach to identifying, evaluating, and mitigating potential air quality issues. Our team of architects, engineers, and industrial hygienists specialize in assessing and addressing IAQ issues with custom, cost-effective solutions.
