Air Safety at Sea
Air Monitoring & Purification Solutions for the Cruise Line Industry
More than 30 million people worldwide are expected to go on a cruise in 2022, and these cruise passengers and staff may be exposed to concerning levels of air pollution that could impact their health. Despite being on the open sea, they can be breathing dirty air – worse than some of the world’s most polluted cities.
