Airflow: 5 Benefits of Installing an MVHR System
The past 3 years have been a whirlwind - and without a doubt, it’s been tough adjusting to the new norm. As a result of the recent pandemic there was a lot to consider, with air quality being one of them.
In parallel, the Government recently announced new building regulations to support the UK’s net zero target and build a cleaner environment. Therefore ventilation regulations have also changed and many developers will be adopting Mechanical Ventilation with Heat Recovery (MVHR) to meet these requirements, commercially and residentially.

Scandinavian Trading: The importance of indoor air quality.
Many products give off harmful emissions which can pollute the air in your home, including building materials, cleaning products and even toys.
Poor indoor air quality has been shown to negatively impact our health, comfort and wellbeing. We have products that are designed with indoor air quality in mind. Our pre-painted pure wood-fibre wall and ceiling panels do not contain any added chemicals and therefore do not release any harmful gases. Our electric smart heaters are designed to prevent burning of dust. These products provide you with a beautiful interior finish, whilst maintaining high indoor air quality throughout the seasons.
