Health and safety on a global scale

As policymakers zone in on Indoor Air Quality (IAQ) and sustainability, striking the balance between healthy, safe buildings and a reduced carbon footprint has become even more critical. Johnson Controls supports and collaborates with code bodies around the world to develop standards for healthier, safer buildings. That experience makes us an ideal partner to help you understand and meet regulatory requirements — and your go-to source for thought leadership and solutions.

The groundwork is being laid for new IAQ and sustainability policies across the globe. For example, the European Union is considering new mandates, implementation timetables, and reporting requirements. The United Kingdom Parliament is working through a bill that seeks to improve air quality and recognize the right to breathe clean air. The ICC is a key resource for staying up to date on the latest code updates.
