Collaboration in remote monitoring of the KB collection

The KB, National Library of the Netherlands, collaborated with Polygon to improve collection preservation through innovative air quality and leak detection sensors. Polygon helped create emergency response plans for climate control failure, fire incidents, and water damage. These plans, designed for large-scale evacuations, were also successfully applied to smaller incidents, including a small fire, climate control issues, and roof leaks. The collaboration between KB, Polygon, and its subsidiary VANWAARDE ensured effective responses to these incidents, leading to a successful pilot project and further collaboration.

Minimizing energy usage in food processing plants to enhance sustainability

In response to the government's new greenhouse gas initiative, a leading food producer is enhancing its environmental responsibility. Since August 2023, Polygon has provided a year-round cooling solution to a Texas poultry plant. While managers were satisfied with 55-62% relative humidity and a temperature of 55°F, Polygon saw room for sustainable improvements. They identified equipment automation as a key opportunity for energy savings and improved workflows.

Managing humidity in a NCAA ice rink

Despite being thrilling venues for sports and recreation, indoor ice rinks are often faced with humidity challenges that cause condensation and fog. Humidity issues stem from various factors including arena spectators, rink users, inadequate ventilation, and temperature differentials. When moisture condenses on cold surfaces, such as ice, it can create disruptive fog and sweating or water droplets that cover seats, glass partitions, and the ice surface itself. If not addressed and managed properly issues like these can compromise playing conditions and venue revenues.
