IEQ Global Launches AerisGuard - A New Solution to Beat
Rising Energy Costs and Stays Competitive In The Hospitality
Business
SINGAPORE – August 12 2008 -
In today’s
increasingly competitive global business environment, companies
are constantly challenged to grow business and maintain
profitability in the face of an ever-increasing demand and
dwindling supply of natural resources.
For businesses to operate effectively in the tropical climate of
Singapore, the ACMV (Air Conditioning and Mechanical
Ventilation) System is an absolute necessity to keep indoor
environments habitable. Operators and owners of buildings that
require the heavy, prolonged use of ACMV systems will inevitably
encounter two key concerns over time. The first: the ever
increasing price of electrical energy required to power ACMV
systems. The second: the gradual deterioration of ACMV system
components due to continued use in Singapore’s equatorial
climate. Increasingly, a third concern has been gaining
worldwide attention: that of the customer’s growing
consciousness toward environmental sustainability, as reflected
in consumer buying preferences.
As high dependency ACMV users, the hospitality industry is among
businesses that need to increase profitability with soaring HVAC
energy costs. While several have already started to support
“Green” Initiatives and take a step closer to achieving
GreenMark, others are concerned with the balance between such
initiatives while achieving business profitability.
IEQ Global, Singapore’s sole certified and authorized applicator
and advocate of AerisGuard™ ACMV Performance Solutions and Trane
Singapore, AerisGuard’s sole distributor in Asia, today
announced the launch of AerisGuard™ ACMV Performance Solutions
by Aeris Environmental in Singapore. US EPA (Environmental
Protection Agency) approved, AerisGuard is based on
revolutionary multi-enzyme biofilm removal solutions that are
environmentally-friendly, and can be applied onto ACMV systems’
outdoor or indoor ventilation coils to both control, prevent,
and inhibit the growth of odour causing fungi, mildew, mould and
bacteria on air, as well to prevent further corrosion damage to
the coils by the natural elements.
The extensive application
of AerisGuard can enable ACMV systems to achieve excellent
indoor environment quality for comfort and hygiene with energy
use optimized, manageable operating costs and reduced
maintenance effort. The protection it provides also extends the
lifespan of expensive ACMV equipment and components. Equally
significant, Aeris Environmental has been named in the US as an
“Energy Star Product Provider” for AerisGuard Air-Conditioning
Performance Solution technology – an energy-efficient product
that produces energy savings whilst protecting the environment.
“We are proud to be part
of the Global environmental-sustainability initiative for
businesses and to offer the industry’s first comprehensive
solution to protect commercial building ACMV assets against
mould, bacterial and fungal contamination,” said Mr. Ong Wei
Ping, Executive Director of IEQ Global. “The AerisGuard
solution has been proven to reduce companies’ energy consumption
and cost, leading to increased profitability – which is at the
core of our belief to maintain the balance between environmental
sustainability and business profitability.”
The AerisGuard suite of solutions may be applied on any
manufacturer’s brand of ACMV systems’ outdoor or indoor
ventilation coils, regardless of size.
