  • Choosing to install below standard may seem like an acceptable corner-cutting exercise, but it can lead to significant issues down the line

    Why installing ducting to DW144 standards matters for your projects

    Choosing to install below standard may seem like an acceptable corner-cutting exercise, but it can lead to significant issues down the line. Installing ducting made to DW144 standards is not just a technical requirement; it’s a commitment to excellence that ensures you meet the needs of your customer and protect the reputation of your business.

  • Lindab’s emission reduction targets approved by the Science Based Targets initiative

    Lindab’s emission reduction targets approved by the Science Based Targets initiative

    The Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi) is an international framework for science-based climate targets in line with the Paris Agreement's goal of limiting global warming to 1.5°C. After a process of submitting data supported targets, including a long-term net-zero target for external validation, it is now established that Lindab’s emission reduction targets have been approved by SBTi.

  • Temperature – cold facts on a hot topic

    Temperature – cold facts on a hot topic

    Temperature is one of the main factors that determines how comfortable we feel indoors. Both high and low temperatures can affect mental ability, work capacity, strength and mobility. How we experience temperature varies from one individual to another, depending on for example age, clothing and health.

  • Relative humidity is an absolute health factor

    Relative humidity is an absolute health factor

    Relative humidity is the amount of moisture present in the air. When it goes below 30% you may experience irritation and discomfort. When it goes above 60% the presence of moisture and dirt can cause mould and other biological contaminants to thrive. Too much humidity can also cause damage to the building.

  • Why particulate matter matters

    Why particulate matter matters

    Let’s talk a bit about particulate matter, or airborne particles. Airborne particles are a form of air pollution. Particles are found everywhere, especially on carpets, upholstered furniture and other fabrics. They can affect your lung function and worsen respiratory conditions such as asthma.

  • The best way to reduce carbon dioxide is to increase the airflow by turning up the ventilation system.

    How does carbon dioxide indoors affect us?

    Carbon dioxide is normally used as an indicator of air quality. When the carbon dioxide levels are high it’s an indication of stagnant, stale air which normally has more particles and emissions which in turn can cause other problems both for your health and for the building.

  • What is good indoor air?

    What is good indoor air?

    From the very first moment in life we need air. We start life by taking a deep breath of air and from that very moment we are dependent on it – for life, health and wellbeing. So, why should we care about our indoor air quality?

  • The importance of low pressure drop in an energy efficient ventilation system

    The importance of low pressure drop in an energy efficient ventilation system

    Pressure drop can be a source of wasted energy and is an important parameter in determining the overall running costs of a building’s ventilation system. In this blog post, we’ll try to explain pressure drop in a simplified way, how pressure drop data is used in ventilation design and why low pressure drop contributes to a more energy efficient ventilation system.

    Lindab delivers ventilation system in fossil-free steel to Castellum

    Lindab and Castellum are collaborating on duct systems in fossil-free steel for a renovation project in Stockholm, Sweden. Lindab is the first ventilation company in the world to receive a pilot delivery of fossil-free steel from SSAB. Castellum is significantly reducing the project's climate impact by choosing fossil-free ventilation ducts for its refurbishing.
