Vancouver Airport Authority Becomes First to Achieve a UL Verified Healthy Building Mark for an Airport

UL Solutions, a global leader in applied safety science, today announced that Vancouver Airport Authority has achieved a UL Verified Healthy Building Mark for the Vancouver International Airport (YVR), the world's first airport to receive this designation. Located 12 km from downtown Vancouver on Sea Island in Richmond, British Columbia, and the second busiest airport in Canada, the 378,255 square meter facility recently underwent an extensive process to earn the Verification, demonstrating excellent indoor air quality (IAQ) and water quality. The Vancouver Airport Authority, the not-for-profit organization that manages YVR, a diverse global hub, hosted UL Solutions at YVR as part of the verification process. These visits by UL Solutions included visual inspections, IAQ and water quality performance testing, assessments and recommendations for improved management of all building systems.
