A must-have. That’s how visitors at the A+A Trade Fair described the AeroGuard. Many had never seen such a smart and versatile air quality monitor before. The huge interest underlined what many companies are looking for: certainty about clean air in the workplace.
Plymovent is proud to announce an upcoming webinar titled “Clearing the Air: Understanding the Dangers of Diesel Exhaust in the Fire Service”, designed to educate and raise awareness about the significant health risks posed by diesel exhaust exposure in fire stations. This free webinar will take place on Thursday, April 3, 2025 at 12pm EST.
There are many health risks associated with the exposure to vehicle exhaust emissions. Every time a vehicle is operating the engine emits tiny fragments of particulate matter and invisible gasses such as carbon monoxide. Often when maintaining or repairing automobiles a mechanic will be required to operate them indoors. When operating a vehicle indoors the exhaust emissions should be removed to prevent exposure of both employees and customers to these tiny fragments and gasses. As an example, extremely high concentrations of carbon monoxide produced by a vehicle’s engine can reach toxic levels within a matter of minutes inside a closed building.
We are dedicated to take part in the Lung Cancer Awareness Month this November. Lung cancer is one of the most common and deadliest cancers worldwide. So we think it is important to raise awareness about lung cancer, its risks, prevention, early detection, and treatment.

Lung cancer is one of the most common and deadliest cancers globally. Lung Cancer Awareness Month is observed to raise awareness about lung cancer, its risks, prevention, early detection, and treatment every November. During this month, various organizations, healthcare professionals, and individuals come together to promote awareness and education about lung cancer.
Plymovent, supplier of solutions for clean air at work, supports this initiative by sharing information about lung cancer.
Vehicle emissions can include a variety of harmful substances, which can contribute to air pollution and have negative impacts on public health and the environment.
Over the years, modern diesel engines have become cleaner. Or in other words: they have become less pollutable and emit less hazardous fumes. Diesel engines even emit less carbon dioxide than gasoline engines and many diesel engine manufacturers claim that most of the harm of diesel exhaust has been reduced.
In workplaces such as garages, bus depots and warehouses there is a lot of pollution, caused by diesel engines. The engines produce toxic gases and particulates, that can cause serious health risks and legal liability. Although it is well known that fumes are toxic and protective measures should be taken, that isn’t always done.
