CO2 in Our Environment: Understanding Levels and Solutions
High CO2 levels in enclosed spaces like offices and schools can lead to a host of health issues, from headaches and fatigue to difficulty in concentration. The ASHRAE standard recommends maintaining CO2 levels below 1000 parts per million (ppm) in schools and 800 ppm in offices.
The LoCASE Grant and How We Used the Funding to Foster Green Innovation
Indoor air quality plays a vital role in maintaining a healthy and productive environment, particularly in offices and public spaces. Volatile Organic Compounds (VOCs) are common indoor pollutants that can have adverse effects on human health. In this blog, we will explore the dangers posed by VOCs, where they are typically found, and how the integration of building management control systems (BMCS) and sensor technology can mitigate their presence and improve indoor air quality.
Why BOSS CONTROLS is a Great Place to Work: Interview with Gina, our Customer Service Administrator
I joined BOSS in November ’22 as an RSC Engineer with a previous background in the packaging industry. After hearing about the vacancy, initial conversations with Rob and Ben were enough to convince me that this would be a great chance to learn within a progressive industry. The current challenges within society around energy supply and consumption highlight the importance and potential that BMS holds in dictating buildings of the future.

Why BOSS CONTROLS is a great place to work
Andrew Hillman has been part of the team at BOSS CONTROLS for 1.5 years, and we are thrilled for his blog contribution where he shares what it’s like to be a BMS Controls engineer, and what it’s like to work here.
Why BOSS CONTROLS is a great place to work
I joined BOSS CONTROLS as Marketing Manager in 2016, when there were only eight of us. Six years later, there are nearly 30 of us and I know Boss plans to keep growing, so there are heaps of career opportunities. As the Boss team has expanded, so have the offices, and we are now in our third premises, having recently signed a three-year lease—and have a northern office in Manchester–so we are here to stay.
What do all these environments have in common?
For example, should businesses with critical environments prioritise: Energy reduction OR protect high-value assets, including historic paintings, from mildew? Energy cost savings OR protect the life of an operating theatre patient with clean air? Energy reduction OR ensuring pharmaceuticals and food are safe for consumption? BMS controls can help these businesses balance both demands.

With WHO highlighting the grim toll of air pollution on health, and the UK striving to lead in clean air initiatives, we’re committed to improving indoor air quality for businesses, ensuring safety and wellbeing for all”
