Prevent Indoor Mold to Protect Facility Occupants

Michael Rubino was a featured expert in an article at EHS Daily Advisor to discuss facility management preventing indoor mold growth.

Mold can happen to any building at any time if the conditions are right. Mold is three things: persistent, resourceful, and low maintenance. It requires very little to live and can sneak right into any type of facility if given the opportunity. Once it starts growing, it can quickly become a large-scale problem and begin affecting the health of anyone exposed to the poor indoor air quality, whether a customer, visitor, client, or employee.
