Global Open Air Quality Standards
We share the same air; Let’s share the same air quality standards. Global Open Air Quality Standards (GO AQS) has established a new benchmark for clean air — a set of transparent, science-backed standards that all nations and integrators can strive for. Join us on our mission to create a world where everyone breathes the same clean air.

A passion for Indoor Air
Did you know there’s no single, global standard for clean indoor air? It’s true! Indoor air quality (IAQ) regulations vary widely across countries, leaving many breathing in a confusing mix of pollutants as, in most cases, they focus on ventilation rates and not the pollutants.
Introducing Global Open Indoor Air Quality Standards (GO IAQS)
Equality
We work to ensure everyone, regardless of race, income, or location, breathes healthy air. By tackling pollution and promoting equitable solutions, we can create a healthier, more just world for all.
Equity
Clean air shouldn’t be a luxury. It’s a right. Yet, millions face polluted air, harming their health and well-being. We’re working to change that.
Spaces
From bustling offices to cozy homes, every indoor space has unique air quality needs. A hospital requires stricter controls to minimize allergens and pathogens, while a gym requires more oxygen for the athletes.
Universal
Confused by air quality indexes (AQI) that differ from one indoor place to another? Let’s translate clean air into a universal language!
Health
Air pollution is linked to a variety of health problems, from respiratory illnesses to heart disease and even cancer. By setting clear limits on pollutants, the open standards protect public health and can dramatically reduce health risks.
Flexibility
Open standards break the vendor lock-in, empowering integrators and end-users to choose the best-fit equipment for each project, not just those made by the same company.
Ambient Air is Everywhere
We share one planet, one atmosphere. Clean ambient air is the birthright of every living thing, yet, air quality varies dramatically across the globe.
Global Open Ambient Air Quality Standards (GO AAQS) will focus mainly on an global air quality index as we fully support 2021 WHO Air Quality Guidelines for ambient air. By establishing universal clean air standards and index, we can ensure everyone, everywhere, breathes the same healthy air. Join the movement. Together, let’s make clean air a global right.
Future Project…
“IAQ is inevitable in buildings.”
