We spend at least a third of our lives in a home – where we eat, relax and sleep – and in an office where we work. This is why Piona Engineering SA has also and mainly specialised in Indoor Quality and Biocompatibility.
As early as 1984, the World Health Organisation WHO, reported that over 30% of newly built buildings could cause acute illness to individuals who reside there for long periods (see the WHO report “Sick Building Syndrome”).
EBS is an innovative area of “Building Science” (B.S.) and has been classified as an emerging science since the 2000s for the widescale dissemination of artificial electromagnetic waves and the need to combine “technology” and “wellness”. One of the newer emerging activities which PIONA Engineering has focused its attention on is consulting and design in the Energetic Building Sustainability sector.
The development of this specialisation allows the company to develop EBS projects that aim to completely free the environments in which we live from forms of strong artificial and natural electromagnetic interference, using our innovative computerised environmental quality analysis protocols.
PIONA Engineering provides the opportunity to merge eco-friendly technological plant designs with comfort and energy saving solutions. Furthermore, it includes an exclusive precautionary project involving EBS monitoring and optimisation of all natural and artificial electromagnetic sources used in the home-office system.
Ultimate importance is given to quality and precautionary measures (WHO precautionary principle) in the study of environmental pollution levels and EMI (Electromagnetic interferences) already in the early design phases.
Today, the lack of optimisation of the energy sources in a given environment is often linked to inefficient management of space to the detriment of the people who occupy it. Depending on the case, it can either support our mental, physical and creative condition by creating wellness or, on the contrary, reduce its efficiency and compromise it over time (WHO sources).
PIONA Engineering is the first Swiss enterprise to propose its EBS project, and its EBS protocol has become one of the most innovative research partnership projects developed so far.
Every environmental monitoring and EBS optimisation work requires the EBSI - PIONA Engineering SA preliminary protocol which is conducted thoroughly with attention to minute details by our technical team. The survey analyses all the components of natural and artificial electromagnetic fields operating in the facility, along with the ionising and non-ionising components and reprocesses them using a computer software program capable of simulating the characteristics of the same environment once it has become an “EBS environment”.
