Office Building Indoor Air Quality (CO2, VOCs, PM2.5, Sick Building Syndrome) — safety profile
Moderate riskOffice buildings concentrate chemical and biological pollutants from building materials, furnishings, cleaning products, occupant bioeffluents, and outdoor infiltration.
What is this product?
Office buildings concentrate chemical and biological pollutants from building materials, furnishings, cleaning products, occupant bioeffluents, and outdoor infiltration. Sick Building Syndrome (SBS): WHO estimates 30% of new/renovated commercial buildings have IAQ complaints. CO2 as ventilation proxy: >1,000 ppm indicates inadequate outdoor air supply — Harvard COGFX study showed 61% cognitive decline at 1,400 ppm vs 600 ppm. ASHRAE 62.1 requires 17 CFM/person outdoor air for offices but many buildings underperform. VOCs from furniture, carpet, paint, cleaning, and printers create chronic low-level exposure. PM2.5 from outdoor infiltration, cooking, laser printers. WELL Building Standard and RESET Air: emerging IAQ performance standards for commercial spaces.
