Temperatures have soared above 35 degrees Celsius placing competitors and spectators at risk from heat exhaustion and/or heat stress. Thankfully, cooling mist systems and misting fans situated at designated points across Paris offer relief from the heat and have been welcomed by competitors, spectators and visitors alike. During the summer months it is vital to ens...

Keeping these areas open and serviced even in the height of summer is vital to any food and drink-service operator. Hot weather conditions experienced locally and around Australia have seen some restaurants and cafes closing off their outdoor dining areas. Imagine what the impact would be on your business, especially if the footprin...

Large open workshops, warehouses and packing sheds are difficult to keep cool in summer and the risk of heat stress is high.  Heat can adversely affect employees' health noticeably reducing productivity, lowering morale and increasing staff turnover. Heat stress occurs when the body fails to cool itself through sweating. Therefore, when the temperat...

Infectious germs survive on surfaces for some time, so it is necessary to sanitise as many common surfaces as possible, and more frequently. This puts extra demands on employees who are already working hard to meet their workplaces’ cleaning and sanitation standards. As restrictions ease and people return to their workplace, school, shop...

New temperature highs have become more frequent and commonplace. Recently, I received a message from a friend who lives in Europe. She said "Nature is disturbed..the daffodils are starting to come out, normally this happens at the end of March." Does this mean that our summers will last longer and extend later into the autumn months going forward? Here's a link to a report on ABC News on Monday 6th March, 2020, "Summers are now twice as ...

While the development of these properties revitalises our communities, it can also bring about potential health and environmental issues. Dust nuisance during demolition is a considerable issue. The release of dust can cause damage to the respiratory system of people near the demolition or construction site. Whe... Wed, 06 Feb 2019 00:00:00 +1100 http://www.coolmist.com.au/blog/#post7183
