RAW partners with AirZones for better air quality

AirZones’ unique approach brings a novel way of addressing the issue of air quality. According to World Health Organisation and the United Nations, air pollution is now responsible for 7.2 million deaths per year.

RAW Coffee Company, a specialty coffee roastery, has partnered with AirZones to ensure healthy and safe air quality. AirZones, the Dubai-based start-up, makes it simple for everyone to understand which venues have clean, safe air to breathe.

AirZones has now installed the latest air quality monitoring technology into RAW Coffee at its location in Al Quoz, to independently measure air quality and ensure it is some of the cleanest and healthiest in Dubai.

According to World Health Organisation and the United Nations, air pollution is now responsible for 7.2 million deaths per year. With the WHO and UN both citing polluted air as the number one environmental threat to humanity, AirZones’ unique approach brings a novel way of addressing the issue. By working with organisations to improve their air quality, it is hoped Dubai becomes one of the healthiest cities on earth – way before the 2040 target.

By working with AirZones, RAW Coffee is proving it takes the health and wellbeing of both customers and employees very seriously. After monitoring the air at the Al Quoz site for a month, the data is then analysed, and AirZones can then advise on how to improve air quality, if required, before awarding their unique Indoor Air Quality Star Rating™ in order to clearly demonstrate to everyone how healthy the venue is.

Kim Thomson, Founder and MD of RAW, says: “We’ve invested heavily in delivering the ultimate coffee experience, including making sure our venue is one of the healthiest in Dubai. AirZones allows us to demonstrate this independently to our customers, proving that RAW Coffee is one of the safest and healthiest places to go for a coffee in the UAE.”

AirZones is already working with some forward-thinking outlets and organisations across the city as people become more aware of the need to ensure clean, quality air.
