A Breath of Fresh Air Amidst Wildfire Smoke

Jardine Air Inc. stands as a vital partner in upholding the health and well-being of communities across Ontario, particularly when the threat of wildfire smoke casts a pall over the landscape. While the brave men and women on the ground battle the flames, Jardine Air Inc. focuses on a critical, yet often unseen, aspect of wildfire impact: ensuring access to clean, breathable air for those affected by heavy smoke. Our mission is to alleviate the respiratory challenges posed by wildfires, allowing communities to breathe easier and remain unharmed during these challenging times.

Proudly Working with First Nations of Northwestern Ontario Since 2020

Since 2020, Jardine Air Inc. has been deeply honored to collaborate with the First Nations communities of Northwestern Ontario. We understand that these communities often bear a disproportionate burden during wildfire events, facing not only the direct threat of fire but also prolonged exposure to harmful smoke. Our partnership is built on a foundation of trust and a shared commitment to health equity. We work directly with First Nations leadership to assess their specific needs for clean air solutions, ensuring that our resources are deployed effectively and respectfully to shield their elders, families, and vital community spaces from the adverse effects of smoke inhalation.

A Job Helping Communities Breathe Easy

At Jardine Air Inc., our work is driven by a singular, powerful purpose: helping communities breathe more easily. When wildfires rage, the air quality can rapidly deteriorate, posing significant health risks, especially to vulnerable populations. We are not involved in fire suppression itself; instead, our focus is on providing the essential systems and products that create clean air environments. Every unit we deploy, every filter we provide, is a step towards alleviating discomfort and protecting respiratory health. It's a job that directly impacts the daily lives of countless individuals, offering a sense of relief and security when the air outside becomes hazardous. We are proud to play this crucial role in public health during emergencies.

Implementing Zones for Enhanced Air Quality

A core service of Jardine Air Inc. is the rapid establishment of "Clean Air Zones"-designated areas where clean air is guaranteed, allowing individuals to escape the detrimental effects of heavy smoke. Our expertise lies in deploying advanced air purification technologies to create these vital havens. We meticulously plan and execute the setup of these zones to provide maximum security and accessibility:

  • Residential AreasDuring periods of severe smoke, we work to help keep people well within their own homes. We facilitate the rapid provision of air purification units that can effectively filter out harmful particulate matter and pollutants, transforming indoor spaces into healthy breathing environments, thereby minimizing the need for mass evacuations due to smoke alone.
  • Offices and Commercial Buildings: Business continuity is vital, and clean air is essential for a sound working environment. We assist in deploying robust air filtration systems to office buildings and commercial spaces, allowing essential services to continue operating smoothly and maintaining the well-being of employees from smoke-related health issues.
  • Elders' Living Facilities: Recognizing the heightened vulnerability of seniors to respiratory ailments, Jardine Air Inc. prioritizes the provision of enhanced clean air solutions for elders' living facilities. We ensure these spaces are equipped with the highest standard of air purification, creating secure environments where elders can breathe freely and without harm, sheltered from outdoor smoke.
  • Getting Products Where They're Needed
It's crucial to understand that Jardine Air Inc. does not engage in firefighting or traditional ground crew operations. Our dedicated team works tirelessly behind the scenes, applying their specialized knowledge to source, prepare, and rapidly deploy the critical air purification products and systems. My role, and the role of my colleagues, is to work diligently to ensure that these essential items reach the affected areas and those who need them most, as quickly as humanly possible. We are the logistical backbone ensuring that communities and emergency responders have access to the fresh air they need to stay healthy and well, allowing the frontline personnel to focus on their vital tasks.

After a forest fire, "off-gassing" refers to the ongoing release of volatile organic compounds (VOCs) from materials like furniture, walls, and clothing that absorbed smoke and ash during the fire. These VOCs, some of which are toxic, can create a lingering "fire smell" and potentially cause health issues.
