Airports and Travel Hubs / Retail ventilation

Ventilation for retail areas

Lighting is usually considered a key factor for a retail area, but ventilation too should be given high priority.

Such a ventilation project demands state-of-the-art retail ventilation equipment that saves energy and provides comfortable indoor environments for passengers and workers alike. Let’s create comfortable shopping environments together.

Typical challenges

The most typical challenges in retail spaces’ ventilation design are related to optimising the air volumes within the shopping area for comfortable work and shopping conditions.

Another factor we address is how to maximise shopping floor space and allow the ventilation system to be installed either in the ceiling or in the wall fixtures.
