International airport improves staff health and well-being and visitor experience with enhanced indoor air quality

The Amsterdam Airport Schiphol – also known as Schiphol Airport – is the main international airport of the Netherlands and the hub for flag carrier airline KLM. Ranked as the third busiest airport in Europe, Schiphol Airport is also a popular visitor attraction famous for its large shopping area, library, rooftop viewing deck, and an extension of the Rijksmuseum.

A key concern raised by the real estate company that manages the airport along with the surrounding office buildings and warehouses is protecting the health and well-being of the employees and visitors. Because of the activities performed in the airport spaces, pollution is perceived to be high.

Integrating uHoo into the HVAC system allowed Schiphol Airport to automate and regulate heating/cooling according to occupancy levels ensuring optimal comfort levels while reducing HVAC load. Moreover, management did not have to spend heavily on HVAC upgrades or repairs. Real-time data provided by uHoo helped in the early detection of HVAC faults.

Data-driven and fact-based marketing initiative as a healthy and safe place

With improved indoor environmental quality, Schiphol Airport leveraged the air quality insights to assure the public on its health and safety practices and retain its reputation as a stellar visitor destination in the Netherlands.

By taking the first step to understand air quality conditions with uHoo Business Solutions, they were able to identify and take control of their specific issues.
