Building managers are facing a pressing challenge, how to balance operational costs with the growing demand for better environments and sustainability.

ABOUT CAMFIL’S CAO INITIATIVE

The Chief Airgonomics Officer initiative was started by Camfil, a leading manufacturer in premium clean air solutions and an advocate for access to clean air.

The Chief Airgonomics initiative is being driven at a time of urgency: sensitivities over air have heightened due to the COVID-19 pandemic, air pollutants are well known to damage the environment and the newly published WHO Air Quality Guidelines show us that air pollution is more damaging to human health than previously understood.

The initiative is a direct response to these realities while also bringing to life Camfil’s mission of protecting people, processes and the environment. It also puts into practice Camfil’s knowledge and expertise built over more than half a century and that it is eager to share with its peers and wider audiences to improve people’s lives.

Our Vision : Clean and healthy Indoor Air should be a Human right

Our Mission: We want all companies and organisations to put clean and healthy indoor air on the agenda

Camfil believes that real change can only happen through collaborative effort and wants your organisation to join the clean air movement and community. Start your clean indoor air journey today!

I think you need to expand the definition of efficiency to more than just energy efficiency. It's the efficiency of labor too. - Mark Jewell 

Do you really want to throw out four filters a year when you could throw out one? The landfill is not free, right? - Mark Jewell 

One of the biggest barriers is ignorance. I think that it's possible that a lot of people don't really know what's possible. - Mark Jewell
