Improved Air Quality Carpet
Reduced pollution, both in external and interior spaces, has clear links to improved cognitive development and attainment. Airborne particulates also impact health and wellbeing, particularly when linked to asthma or the harmful impact of NOx. Controlling pollution within a classroom environment is tackled through several routes, including air quality, elimination of contaminants such as lead paint and reduction in harmful particles. A new pollution control flooring has been developed, winning plaudits in northern Europe, and is now available in the UK as an added method to improve poor air quality.
A study into primary school students has shown via memory tests a clear link between lower pollution and better results over the course of a year. Part of the outcome has been linked to proximity to green spaces, with the underlying causality being lowered pollutants as the main driver. Similarly, lower levels of lead in car exhausts have had an impact on development and learning.
Carpet is recognized for its performance in trapping airborne particulates compared to hard floors. AirMaster carpet is 4 times more effective than regular carpet tiles, performing a continuous filtering role.
Available in a wide range of colours and patterns, the structure of these carpet tiles is also inherently hardwearing and long-lasting. Maintenance is easily achieved using a vacuum with a brush attachment.
Respiratory irritation from indoor particulates can be reduced, and Airmaster is endorsed by asthma sufferers. This is because the structure of the carpet uses a combination of filament sizes and loops that trap fine dust, releasing them only when brush vacuumed.
Costs for air quality carpet are close to figures for regular carpet tiles. Depending upon the choice of backing, a silver or bronze ‘cradle to cradle’ environmental certificate is awarded, and the range has a German GUI ‘Gold’ award following tests for indoor air quality.
