RESET® Air Certification for Perkins & Will Shanghai Office

RESET is proud to announce the achievement of RESET Air Certification (Commercial Interior) for the Perkins & Will Shanghai Office.

Famous for their pioneering work on healthy materials and the Precautionary List, Perkins & Will also piloted the RESET Material Standard within their Shanghai Office. This emerging standard focuses on increasing demand for digital chains-of-custody of health and sustainability data, thereby increasing data transparency, accuracy and availability.

Founded in 1935, Perkins & Will is one of the world’s leading architectural design firms. It is an interdisciplinary, research-based architectural design company with an expertise in delivering sustainability, resilience, regeneration and health within large scale projects. The Shanghai office is most well known for the city’s iconic and beloved Natural History Museum.

RESET Air is the world’s first sensor-based, performance-driven building certification program where indoor air quality (IAQ) is monitored and measured in real-time. 

To achieve RESET Air Certification for Commercial Interiors, the Perkins & Will Shanghai Office was required to ensure that their IAQ met the RESET criteria for Basic or High Performance during a minimum of 3 consecutive months. Air quality data was collected via sensors and evaluated daily by the RESET Assessment Cloud. Air quality indicators and thresholds include: 


Additionally, temperature and relative humidity are continuously monitored, although no specific thresholds are prescribed.

The Perkins & Will Shanghai Office began its Data Audit period in July 2019 and has continuously met the RESET Air requirements. To maintain accreditation, the office will continue to monitor its air quality throughout the year. As defined within the RESET Standard, IAQ data is being reported to staff and occupants on a daily basis.
