UK Gets New BAS Options for Critical Environments

In a critical environment BAS failure is not an option. 

These are environments where safety, reliability, regulatory compliance, or continuity of service are urgent. They include hospitals, laboratories, clean rooms, data centres, manufacturing, critical infrastructure (water, power), etc.

The number of these critical environments is growing in the UK. This is due to the rise of AI data centres and government regulations on healthcare facilities. 

This growth makes the partnership between Chartwell Controls (Albireo Energy’s UK subsidiary) and Antec Controls so important. 

These two companies are delivering pressure-based room control solutions for critical environments. Antec brings the proven technology. And Chartwell brings the expert installation, management and service teams. Chartwell also can integrate the Antec systems into existing building automation systems.
