XY Sense, a platform specializing in real-time workplace occupancy sensors, has announced the enhancement of its solution to include air quality insights. The platform will now incorporate multi-factor air quality data from top sensor providers like Airthings and Kaiterra, merging air quality metrics with precise real-time occupancy information to deliver valuable insights into space utilization and facilitate new workplace applications.
Organizations often struggle with the adverse effects of poor air quality on employee well-being, which can lead to reduced productivity and higher energy costs. By integrating air quality and real-time occupancy data into a single platform, XY Sense aims to empower businesses globally to take proactive measures. This addition of air quality data represents a significant step in XY Sense’s mission to enhance office environments through anonymous, real-time information.
This comprehensive solution allows companies to maintain healthy air quality by activating HVAC systems when occupancy levels in specific areas reach certain thresholds, preventing air quality from deteriorating. The platform will also offer metrics on noise, temperature, and air quality for office users searching for available desks or meeting rooms. Moreover, the data will allow real estate teams to examine historical trends to pinpoint design issues related to airflow, noise, and other environmental elements that impede space utilization.
In a strategic move to enhance its occupancy intelligence offerings, XY Sense has announced partnerships with leading indoor air quality sensor providers, Airthings and Kaiterra. This collaboration aims to provide customers with optimal hardware choices while integrating top-tier air quality insights.
The partnership between XY Sense and Airthings will commence with a significant global deployment for a major pharmaceutical firm that operates in over 50 locations. Chloe Waller, Chief Commercial Officer at Airthings, expressed enthusiasm about the collaboration, highlighting that with over 1,000,000 devices deployed worldwide, Airthings is committed to empowering people to breathe better. The collaboration with XY Sense strengthens their capacity to provide valuable data and actionable insights, promoting healthier and more engaging work environments. Together, they are committed to assisting clients in balancing employee well-being with energy efficiency throughout their real estate portfolios.
Liam Bates, Co-Founder & CEO of Kaiterra, another leader in air quality monitoring solutions, expressed enthusiasm about the partnership with XY Sense. Bates noted that both companies are dedicated to empowering corporate workplace and real estate teams to enhance occupant experiences, particularly within large global portfolios. The collaboration between Airthings and Kaiterra is anticipated to deliver substantial value to their shared customers by utilizing reliable data and actionable insights to promote healthier work environments.
