Contact UsFactors impacting air quality in Logistics
The logistics sector covers many kinds of daily work that add to air pollution, giving off harmful pollutants such as:
Particulate matter (PM2.5, PM10)
PM is given off by diesel trucks, trains, handling gear and loading work.
Volatile organic compounds (or VOCs)
VOCs are released by trucks, factory work, heating systems and packaging jobs.
Carbon monoxide (CO)
CO comes from burning fuel, handling gear, and loading and unloading work.
Nitrogen oxides (NOx)
NOx is released when fossil fuels burn in trucks, shipping vessels and heating systems.
Transportation
Trucks
Marine Vessels
Locomotives
Handling EquipmentStationary
Refineries
Oil & Gas Storage
Storage Piles of Coal
Power GenerationDID YOU KNOW?
The International Agency for Research on Cancer (IARC) lists diesel engine exhaust as a cause of cancer in humans, and breathing it in raises the risk of lung cancer.
Areas of Concern
Logistics hubs are always on the go, and that high level of activity makes good air quality hard to keep up here.
Warehouse Facilities
Pollutants get trapped in closed spaces where heavy work goes on.
Loading Docks
Loading and unloading work, along with truck exhaust, gives off pollutants here.
Transportation Routes
Along the major routes, diesel truck exhaust affects nearby homes and shops.
Logistics Hubs
Constant work at high-activity centres leads to pollution in the local area.
Who is at Risk?
Air quality issues across the logistics sector may put the health of everyone at risk.
Logistics Workers
Contact with pollutants over long periods can cause lung and heart trouble.
Nearby Residents
Living near a logistics hub can mean higher health risks from pollutants.
Drivers
Drivers spend long hours in trucks and take in a lot of harmful pollutants.
Delivery Personnel
Long-term contact with pollutants on every delivery and pickup run.

Frequently Asked Questions
Ask us anything you want to know.
Logistics involves plenty of diesel-powered transport and other work, and the pollutants from all of this can affect the towns close by.
The logistics sector takes in warehouses, transport and fixed sources that give off pollutants like PM2.5, NOx, CO and VOCs.
Warehouses hold pollutants in their crowded work areas, and this affects the air quality both indoors and outside.
Prana Air has practical ways to improve the air quality in logistics, such as smart air quality monitors, advanced air purifiers and more.
Industrial Applications
From small operators to large companies, Prana Air offers a wide selection of smart, low-cost and highly accurate air quality tools for many industries.
