As members of the Institute of Air Quality Management (IAQM), we follow best practices and industry standards to provide reliable and compliant assessments.
Why Choose Us for Your Air Quality Assessments?
Our robust air quality assessments are tailored to your specific project, helping you identify potential risks, meet planning requirements, and promote cleaner air. We assess the impacts of emissions from:
- Roads
- Residential developments
- Mixed-use developments
- Construction sites
- Energy-from-waste facilities
We understand the urgency of planning deadlines. That’s why our average turnaround for air quality assessments is just 1–2 weeks.
What is an Air Quality Assessment?
An air quality assessment measures pollutants in a specific area and compares them to regulatory standards. This helps determine the safety of the air for residents and identifies pollution sources, enabling mitigation measures.
Our assessments are essential for:
- Developments with over 10 residential units
- Projects exceeding 1,000 sqm of floor space
We follow IAQM guidance to ensure every air quality assessment we produce is accurate, reliable, and fully compliant for planning applications.
