When you’re weighing up whether you need to rent air quality monitors or purchase, often clients start with the fundamentals: how long the project will run and how you will fund it.
If the project will last more than about 18 months, buying the kit outright usually works out cheaper. For shorter projects, renting can be easier because the costs stay simple for the finance team and you get quicker sign-off.
If your project is going to continue longer than you originally planned then you can convert to purchase any time and 100 % of rental fees are credited towards the purchase.

We specialise in outdoor air quality monitor rentals and sales, and know how important industry regulation and certification is. AQMesh pods measure pollutants in accordance with performance targets and specifications set by the US EPA and CEN. They are also traceable to internationally recognised standards and certified to the MCERTS indicative standard for PM2.5 and PM10. To provide further confidence that AQMesh is using its quality management system and processes effectively and consistently, we are also ISO9001 certified.
Air quality monitoring is the process of monitoring ambient pollutants, particles and dust from construction sites, in order to ensure that any pollution from the site’s operational activity are either not escaping off the site, or if they are they are not exceeding any regulatory limits.
Fenceline monitoring – or perimeter / boundary monitoring – is the process of monitoring emissions from industrial facilities along the site’s boundary, in order to ensure that any pollution from the site’s operational activity are either not escaping off the site, or if they are they are not exceeding any regulatory limits.
The impact of the industrial and manufacturing sectors on the environment has never been more of a priority. Reducing their effects on air quality due to pollutants such as nitrogen oxides, sulphur dioxide, particulates and VOCs are a key focus for many organisations and regulatory agencies.
Whether you’re a mining operator or a consultant offering monitoring services to your mining clients, AQMesh offers a robust, versatile and reliable solution for air pollution monitoring across the site and along the site perimeter.
AQMesh is rooted in academia and innovation, providing reliable data for air quality research in a variety of environments.
Monitoring air quality is essential for authorities to ensure pollution levels in the area do not exceed regulatory limits. The air quality data gathered can be used to identify pollution sources, as well as develop strategies and inform policies to manage levels of air pollution and mitigate its impact on the health of the population.
For industrial air quality monitor hire, the minimum rental period is three months.
We custom build the pod depending on your gas sensor and dust requirements. The data contract, SIM contract and maintenance are all included.
You can rent up to 10 pods per order, and we can supply larger fleets on request.
Each project is built within two weeks, and worldwide delivery takes an additional 1 to 5+ days.
Yes, if you decide to buy after you’ve started your rental contract, we can apply 100 % of the rental fees you’ve already paid as credit toward the purchase price.
Every pod is factory-calibrated and monitored remotely using AQ-spec quality-assurance and quality-control procedures.
