We see from your search that you're looking for information on the term "Air Quality", and we have a large number of manufacturers' news releases and technical articles here on Buildingtalk which will be of interest. Let me be your guide.
 
Start with the news release Dartford tolls should be scrapped - FTA from Freight Transport Association, which we summarised at the time by saying "Freight Transport Association is angry that discounts for using the Dartford crossing are to be restricted to local residents and that the facility is not to be extended to local businesses". Earlier in the week, we featured the news release Ambirad Radiant puts shine into Hycrome from Ambi-Rad: "Energy efficient Vision radiant tube heating from AmbiRad has transformed the comfort conditions for employees at a manufacturing and production facility".
 
In January 2008, we covered the news from Freight Transport Association concerning its London Low Emission Zone - take a look at Non-compliance with London Low Emission Zone which says: "The Freight Transport Association is concerned that as many as 10,000 vehicles working in and around London may not yet be compliant with the new Low Emission Zone scheme".
 
Take a look also at the news release from Freight Transport Association, Urban Logistics Conference from FTA, as well as Windowmaster launches new heat exchanger from WindowMaster Control Systems, and Protim Services changes name to ProTen Services from ProTen Services.
