Safe Everyday Life Next to a Construction Site

A purpose-built solution for monitoring environmental conditions in areas affected by construction – turning the invisible into something visible and manageable.

eGate Site Impact Monitor Safeguards Air Quality

The eGate Site Impact Monitor is a unique solution designed specifically to monitor environmental conditions in and around construction zones.

The service provides real-time air quality monitoring in nearby buildings – such as schools, kindergartens, and office complexes – and enables data-driven actions to prevent the spread of dust and pollutants into indoor spaces.

When construction takes place in densely populated or actively used environments, the eGate Site Impact Monitor ensures construction and everyday life can coexist safely, responsibly, and transparently – through proactive measures and clear communication.

Already deployed on hundreds of sites, the solution has proven to be a reliable tool for supporting modern, environmentally responsible construction practices.

Service Contents

eGate IoT Measurement System
  • PM1–PM40 dust particles (PM4)
    Wireless eGate sensors are installed in occupied buildings located within the construction impact area. The system monitors particle concentrations (PM) in real time, delivering data to a cloud platform or directly to building info screens – ensuring all stakeholders have easy access.
  • Environmental Conditions Specialist Monitoring
    The eGate Environmental Conditions Specialist continuously tracks air quality trends. Any anomalies are addressed quickly, with clear recommendations and coordinated resolution.
  • Corrective Actions in Collaboration
    All necessary measures are planned and implemented in close cooperation with the client, always guided by live data and professional assessments. The goal is to mitigate risks before they affect building users.
