Concrete pouring is a construction phase that looks straightforward at a glance, but once you’re on-site, it’s clear how much coordination is involved. Between formwork, rebar, pumps, and crews working to place and consolidate the material, there’s a lot happening all at once.

When commissioning a new data center, ensuring optimal air quality is as critical as power and network reliability. One key hazard during this phase is formaldehyde, a volatile organic compound (VOC) commonly released from construction materials, furnishings, and adhesives. Exposure to elevated formaldehyde levels can affect both human health and sensitive equipment, making proactive management essential.

Project managers already facing tight timelines know how quickly moisture problems can derail progress. A single storm system or prolonged period of humidity can slow drying times, damage materials, and push critical installations further down the schedule. Understanding these risks and managing them early is key to keeping projects on track.

Join leaders from Polygon, AXA XL, and Wint for a fireside chat on the technology helping prevent water damage and mitigate risk on construction sites.

As construction projects near completion, the focus shifts from building performance to occupant health. One critical step before turnover is validating Indoor Air Quality (IAQ) -especially for projects pursuing LEED certification. This is where Polygon plays an important supporting role.
