BOSTON--January, 20 2022-- Attune today announced that Boston Properties, Inc. (NYSE:BXP), the largest publicly traded developer, owner, and manager of Class A office properties in the United States, has selected Senseware’s technology solution to implement real-time indoor air quality (IAQ) monitoring across BXP’s portfolio as part of its healthy building strategy.
“As a leader in sustainable and healthy property development and operations, we are pleased to be adding real-time indoor air monitoring to our portfolio,” said Doug Linde, President, BXP. “Our data-driven approach to operations, including IAQ management, will be informed by real-time, objective measurement to assure that our buildings are providing optimal conditions for our clients and employees.”
Air quality monitoring technology is the latest addition to BXP’s healthy building initiatives, which have been focused on IAQ management, increased ventilation, filtration, testing, and monitoring. With Senseware, BXP will add sensor data collection points in the building supply and return air ducts. Real-time air quality measurements from duct-mounted sensors, including carbon dioxide and fine particulate matter, will enable BXP to monitor the effectiveness of ventilation and filtration systems.
“The science is clear that better indoor air quality mitigates infectious disease transmission, improves cognitive performance, and contributes to the wellness of building occupants,” said Ben Myers, Vice President, Sustainability, BXP. “The added capability of real-time indoor air quality monitoring from Senseware is an extension of our commitment to the integration of healthy building best practices and technologies that support operational excellence.”
BXP continues to be recognized for its leadership in healthy buildings and overall ESG including as a 2020 Best in Building Health awardee by The Center for Active Design.
