Air quality is an extremely important issue. Interparking takes the subject very seriously, the objective being to purify the air in its car parks.
A first notable initiative was launched in April 2019, with the commissioning of a particle reduction system at the Beffroi car park in Namur, Belgium. Developed in collaboration with Delft University of Technology in the Netherlands, this system uses the positive ionization process to capture the fine particles present in the ambient air. What is the result? The ambient air is cleared of 50 to 70% of particles, 40% of fine particles and 20% of ultrafine particles suspended in the car park.
70%
THE SYSTEM CAN NEUTRALIZE UP TO 70% OF THE PARTICLES PRESENT IN THE AIR
According to air quality measurement firm Airscan.org, thanks to the system installed at the Beffroi car park the concentration of particles inside the car park is lower than the average levels recorded outside. In other words, it is now possible to breathe better quality air inside a car park than outside.
It was the first installation of this type for the Interparking Group, and the first to be rolled out in Belgium. Since then, the system has been deployed in Brussels, Ghent, Antwerp, Cannes, Nice, Nîmes, and Fontainebleau.
