Here is a brief overview of the different actors in your interiors.

The air that bathes us...
Texte de couverture

15,000 litres of air per day... That's how much air we breathe at rest every day! 

We spend 80% of our time in enclosed spaces. We all breathe air at work, at home, at school, in public places, that is full of pollutants from outside, but also from the indoor environment. It is therefore time to take care of the air we breathe, especially as housing is becoming better and better insulated; excellent news you may say! For our energy bills yes, but the renewal of our indoor air is heavily penalized. 

So as "knowing" is already half the job, here are the main sources of indoor pollution and how to best protect yourself.

Its rough feel, its changing appearance that catches the light differently at every hour of the day or night.
