The First Step in ESG Actions: Starting with Air Quality Monitoring

ESG Is Not Just About Carbon Emissions; There Are Also “Invisible Risks”

In recent years, ESG (Environmental, Social, Governance) has become an important benchmark for corporate management. Many companies actively invest in carbon reduction and energy management, but in the pursuit of “carbon neutrality,” they often overlook another issue closely related to both the environment and human health—air quality.

Air pollution is not limited to outdoor spaces; indoor air in offices, factories, schools, and hospitals may also hide invisible dangers. Without real-time monitoring, it can not only affect employee health but also pose operational risks.

The Connection Between ESG and Air Quality

1. E (Environmental)

   • If emissions from a company’s factories or construction sites lack proper monitoring and management, they can directly affect the air quality of surrounding communities.

   • Implementing an air quality monitoring system not only allows real-time tracking of emissions but also accumulates data that can serve as a basis for environmental reporting and regulatory compliance.

2. S (Social)

   • Employees spend about 80% of their time working indoors. Poor air quality can lead to headaches, fatigue, reduced concentration, and even long-term health risks.

   • Externally, if a company proactively discloses its air quality data, it can also enhance social trust and strengthen its brand image.

3. G (Governance）

   • Monitoring data can serve as part of a company’s risk management, helping to prevent fines or reputational damage caused by neglecting air pollution or workplace safety issues.

   • At the same time, transparent disclosure of air quality data also aligns with the principles of good corporate governance.

     
     

Common Pain Points for Companies

• Focusing only on carbon emissions while neglecting the management of air pollutants (PM2.5, VOCs, CO₂, etc.).

• Lacking real-time data and relying solely on post-event inspection reports, which prevents rapid response.

• Unable to quantify improvement results, making it difficult to demonstrate concrete contributions in ESG reports.

Solution: Start with Monitoring to Build a Complete ESG Strategy

Sysinno, through its iAeris Air Quality Detector series, helps companies to:

• Monitor multiple pollutants in real time (PM2.5, CO₂, VOCs, etc.).

• Store data in the cloud, creating a complete record that facilitates ESG report preparation.

• Integrate with AIoT control systems to automatically activate air conditioning or ventilation equipment, truly implementing improvement measures.

This is not just a “data collection tool,” but the first step in a company’s ESG actions.

Under the ESG trend, air quality is no longer just “the concern of environmental departments,” but an important part of corporate responsibility and brand value.

To truly implement ESG, starting with air quality monitoring is the most practical and immediately feasible first step. Contact Sysinno to get started. e-mail: service@sysinnotec.com ，Learn more about corporate ESG air monitoring solutions.
