AirAdvice has joined with international corporate partner Shinyei Kaisha to launch AirAdvice Japan, the Japanese market version of the HomeAdvice program, whose aim is to help consumers to enjoy cleaner, healthier, more comfortable indoor air. The HomeAdvice system enables contractors, facility managers, and building owners to identify opportunities to reduce energy costs, improve the operational efficiency of heating, ventilation, and air conditioning (HVAC) systems, and solve indoor environmental quality issues.

 

"We're honored to work with Shinyei Kaisha to launch AirAdvice Japan," says Jim Crowder, AirAdvice CEO. "We've enjoyed a fruitful research and development partnership with Shinyei for years, including exclusive developments available in North America only through AirAdvice. When Shinyei approached us about licensing our consumer business model we found that it was a good strategic fit with a strong and well-established partner as well as an excellent market expansion decision. Clean, comfortable indoor air is a universal concern, and Shinyei expects broad success with AirAdvice Japan."

AirAdvice and Shinyei Kaisha have worked in partnership for the last seven years to bring innovative indoor air quality sensor technology to Asian and North American markets, reveals the company’s press release. AirAdvice's intellectual capital contribution to Shinyei’s product development led, in turn, to Shinyei's adoption of the AirAdvice business model. "At Shinyei, we are very pleased to take our relationship with AirAdvice to the next level with the launch of AirAdvice Japan," says Taro Nakagawa, Business Development Manager at Shinyei Kaisha.
