Carrier Global Corporation has launched its new healthy buildings programme to help deliver healthy, safe, efficient and productive indoor environments across key verticals including the commercial buildings, hospitality and marine sectors.

 

Carrier Global Corporation, a leading global provider of innovative heating, ventilating and air conditioning (HVAC), refrigeration, fire, security and building automation technologies, has announced the launch of its new Healthy Buildings Programme, an expanded suite of advanced solutions.

 

It is aimed at helping deliver healthy, safe, efficient and productive indoor environments across key verticals including commercial buildings, healthcare, hospitality, education, retail and marine, said a statement from Carrier Global Corporation.

 

In support of this, the company has also launched a website to help customers consult with its experts to take advantage of the broad range of industry-leading healthy building technologies, it stated.

 

As people around the world adjust to a new normal, the health of our buildings – and how they influence personal health – is critically important, stated a senior official. 

 

"Covid-19 has reinforced the important role that buildings play in ensuring and protecting public health," remarked Dave Gitlin, President & CEO, Carrier. 

 

“As people return to work, hotels greet guests, schools welcome back students and stores reopen, indoor air quality and safe buildings are of paramount importance. For the economy to successfully recover, people need to have trust in the safety of the buildings they are entering. New technologies like microscopic filtration systems and touchless building controls have gone from nice-to-have conveniences to must-have protections. The Carrier Healthy Buildings Program can help enable healthier and safer indoor environments as we get back to our new normal,” he added. 

 

As a founding member of both the US Green Building Council and the International WELL Building Institute, Carrier has long been an industry leader in enhancing building health to promote personal health. 

 

Now, it’s essential that the world have the solutions and services that enable healthy environments.

 

“The company that invented modern air-conditioning is uniquely positioned to deliver healthy building expertise,” said Rajan Goel, who leads Carrier’s Healthy Buildings Program as the head of Carrier’s Building Solutions Group. 

 

Carrier’s Healthy Buildings Program will draw from a comprehensive suite of solutions and services designed to help improve indoor air quality (IAQ), increase outside air ventilation and enable touchless interactions. These include:
