The document discusses how dirty or contaminated air in workplaces can negatively impact employee health and productivity. It notes that smokers, asthmatics, and those with severe asthma may struggle more in such environments. The document then explains that ducted air solutions can filter and clean air as it flows through ducts, distributing cleaner air. Some systems use silver-based coatings that kill 99.9% of airborne pathogens. Such technologies are becoming more common in Australia and can benefit workplaces like hospitals, medical facilities, and schools that see many people each year. Implementing an appropriate ducted air solution can provide a healthier work environment where employees are less likely to get sick.

1. DUCTED AIR SOLUTIONS

2. The air that we breathe can have a significant
impact on our health and how productive we
are during our work-day. Air that is unfiltered,
dirty or contaminated with pathogens have an
impact on our respiratory health which in turn
can cause breathing difficulties, fatigue, cause
asthma attacks and can induce nausea.

3. Smokers and asthmatics will potentially find
breathing uncomfortable throughout the 8-10
hour day, particularly when this is
compounded over time. Someone who is a
severe asthmatic may require a greater
amount of sick leave to manage their systems
because of the conditions in their workplace.

4. Many ducted air solutions utilise the latest in
anti-microbial technology and can actually
filter and clean the air as it flows through the
duct and into environments where human will
breathe in that air.

5. Silver is a natural antibiotic and studies have
shown it to be highly effective at killing many
air-borne pathogens that contaminate the air.
A silver-based coating within a duct-system
naturally imparts their many anti-microbial
features that kill 99.9% of these air-borne
pathogens that can be detrimental to our
respiratory health.

6. Ducted air solutions that offer this sort of
technology are commonplace in many parts of
Western Europe but are beginning to become
more acknowledged in Australia as a viable
way to deliver cleaner air into the workplace.

7. Such solutions are highly applicable in the
hospitality, medical and educational industries
since these sorts of institutions have
thousands of people passing through them
each year, many of whom would be carrying
diseases ranging from the common cold to
something much more sinister.

8. By implementing the appropriate ducted air
solution into your workplace, you will be
providing a much healthier working
environment for your staff to work in, helping
them to work at their best and minimising the
chances of them fall ill and requiring sick
leave.
