Excavation, demolition, material handling, and heavy machinery create dust and emission events that shift rapidly throughout the working day. By the time a periodic inspection records a reading, the conditions that caused a community complaint or a worker exposure event have already passed. Without continuous, real-time data across the site and its boundaries, project teams have no way to act before thresholds are breached, and no defensible record when they are.

THE CHALLENGE

Construction sites generate significant pollution that periodic monitoring and basic boundary checks simply can't keep pace with.

Construction sites generate significant pollution that periodic monitoring and basic boundary checks simply can't keep pace with.

Persium deploys sensor networks across active construction zones, site perimeters, and downwind boundary positions — capturing real-time data on particulate matter, gases, noise, wind, and atmospheric conditions as they change throughout the working day. Configurable threshold alerts notify site teams the moment conditions approach unsafe or non-compliant levels. All data is time-stamped, exportable, and accessible via dashboard, creating the auditable record that regulatory compliance, planning conditions, and community engagement require.

WHAT PERSIUM DOES

Continuous visibility across your site, your boundary, and your surrounding community.

Continuous visibility across your site, your boundary, and your surrounding community.

Worker dust exposure monitoring

Continuous PM1, PM2.5, and PM10 monitoring across active work zones, tracking dust levels in real time and triggering alerts when concentrations approach safe working limits. Evidence that protects both workers and the organisations responsible for them.


Boundary and community impact monitoring

Perimeter sensors capture how dust travels beyond the site boundary into surrounding residential areas, schools, and public spaces. Real-time visibility enables proactive response before a complaint becomes an enforcement notice.


Source identification and wind-correlated attribution

Every Persium Pod includes a built-in 3D wind sensor. Correlating PM spikes with wind direction and speed identifies which activity or zone is driving emissions, enabling targeted operational changes rather than blanket site shutdowns.


Regulatory compliance and planning conditions

Generate continuous, time-stamped environmental records that satisfy local authority requirements, planning condition monitoring obligations, and environmental impact assessment commitments. Audit-ready from day one of deployment.


Noise monitoring

Construction noise regulation is tightening across the UK, Europe, and GCC. Persium Pods monitor sound levels continuously alongside air quality, delivering a unified environmental dataset from a single deployed sensor, without the need for separate noise monitoring equipment.


WBGT and heat stress monitoring

In high-temperature environments, particularly across GCC construction sites — WBGT monitoring protects outdoor workers during summer months. Persium provides continuous heat stress data alongside air quality from the same sensor network.

Monitoring Applications

What construction teams use Persium for.

What construction teams use Persium for.

In the UK, the Control of Pollution Act and local authority planning conditions increasingly require continuous dust monitoring at construction sites near sensitive receptors. In Saudi Arabia, projects under the Royal Commission for Riyadh City (RCRC) must demonstrate compliance with PM10 dust monitoring requirements through continuous, verifiable data accessible to NCEC. In the UAE, environmental monitoring requirements are embedded within construction permits for major infrastructure and urban development projects.


Across all of these frameworks, periodic sampling is being replaced by continuous monitoring. Persium provides it, with data that is time-stamped, exportable, and audit-ready from day one.

REGULATORY CONTEXT

Construction dust and noise compliance requirements are tightening globally.

Construction dust and noise compliance requirements are tightening globally.

Persium is deployed across active construction projects in Riyadh, supporting dust monitoring requirements under the Royal Commission for Riyadh City, with continuous PM10, wind, and noise data accessible to project teams, NCEC, and RCRC in real time. At The Ellinikon in Athens — one of Europe's largest urban development projects, Persium monitors air quality, heat stress, noise, and atmospheric conditions across a complex multi-workstream environment.
