To clearly state the common view of these organisations, a manifest with IEQ recommendations is now available, and can be accessed via the [Eurovent website](https://eurovent.eu/?q=articles/ieq-gathering-manifesto-healthy-buildings-all). Swegon stands behind this initiative through our long-time commitment for IEQ in general, and via Eurovent in particular, and strongly encourage the Commission and the Parliament to support the intentions of the manifest. Together we create healthy and energy efficient indoor climate!
