Hazardous Indoor Air Pollutants

|
 |
Dust Mites
Dust mites are microscopic organisms that can live and breed everywhere dust settles. They have a lifespan of up to 4 months.
Dust mites are the main cause for more than 80% of the asthmatic cases. |
Second Hand Smoke
People with long term exposure to second hand smoke suffer from lung damage that is equivalent to 20 years of smoking. |
 |
 |
Bacteria & Viruses
90% of offices are full of bacteria and viruses. SARS or pneumonia are types of dangerous viruses. |
Gases
VOCs (Volatile Organic Compound) from building materials and cleaning products give off vapours that can be inhaled,
which may cause headache, impaired thinking and concentration resulting in mental fatigue and confusion. Worse, it might lead to cancer! |
 |
|
Who are the victims?
|
|
|
 |
Babies
They breathe more rapidly and have quicker blood circulations. Babies have larger skin and mucous membranes
that make them absorb indoor air pollutants efficiently. This can result in development of sensitivities.
Infants spend more than 90% time indoor thus make them face higher risk from indoor air pollution |
Asthmatics
Any chemicals, gases or particulates which cause irritation of the respiratory system mucous membranes will aggravate their conditions. |
 |
 |
Pregnant women
Pregnant women are at risk as some of these pollutants may pass through the placenta to the foetus. |
The elderly
Elder who are frail and infirm are more likely to develop respiratory disorders. |
