Welcome

Airtightness is important for many reasons, including reducing heat loss, improving comfort, and protecting the building fabric. Airtightness is achieved by sealing a building to reduce infiltration – which is sometimes called uncontrolled ventilation.

Airex developed the world’s first smart air brick solution; a novel, patented technology that helps reducing heat demand while maintaining the healthy levels of indoor air quality in homes. 

The Airex innovation was born out the founders’ passion to tackle fuel poverty and climate change, and the realisation that fuel poverty still exists today in one of the most developed parts of the world. This frustration triggered the desire to do something to address the problem. A joint research project conducted with a well-regarded academic researcher, Dr Sofie Pelsmakers, created this opportunity. She identified just how much heat loss is attributed to an overlooked area within buildings: air bricks.
