AQMesh fenceline monitoring delivers real-time detection of pollutants leaving your site boundary. Our system helps you identify leaks, equipment failures and accidental emissions the moment they happen.
With continuous monitoring at your site’s perimeter, you can act fast, reduce environmental impact and assist regulatory fenceline monitoring compliance.
The AQMesh wind speed and direction attachments can help to understand the direction pollution is coming from, which in some cases allows you to demonstrate that the source lies outside your own operations.
AQMesh is an accurate, compact and robust air quality monitoring system that is ideal for boundary monitoring in harsh environments. Numerous AQMesh pods can be easily installed at several points around the site perimeter to monitor 10+ pollutants in near-real time, using autonomous power options and wireless communications. These pods can be easily moved around as required.
Whether you have a short-term air quality project or a long-term perimeter monitoring project. Our systems are available to hire and purchase worldwide. With flexible rental terms, you can hire pods for periods ranging from 3 to 12 months.
Projects vary a lot and we understand there may be an initial requirement to establish a baseline before the project begins. That’s why AQMesh has a ‘try before you buy’ option, where you’re able to rent pods and pay the balance if you want to purchase pods outright after the rental period ends.
Each air quality monitoring system is custom-built to meet your specific fenceline monitoring needs—ensuring accurate, reliable data that can support compliance.
Fenceline monitoring plays a vital role in helping industrial sites meet environmental regulations and air quality standards. By continuously tracking emissions at the perimeter, AQMesh systems support fenceline monitoring compliance through accurate, real-time data collection and alerting.
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.
The Scottish Environment Protection Agency (SEPA) selected AQMesh for a fenceline monitoring project around the Mossmorran petrochemical complex in Fife, responding to community concerns about industrial flaring. A network of AQMesh pods was installed alongside a fixed reference station to provide real-time, site-wide air quality data.
SEPA highlighted AQMesh for its flexible deployment, broad pollutant coverage, and proven ability to detect short-term pollution trends. This independent validation by a national regulator reinforces AQMesh as a trusted choice for compliance and transparency in fenceline air quality monitoring. Explore the SEPA case study here.
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.
Fenceline monitoring is important for environmental protection and public health. It involves the continuous, real-time detection of hazardous air pollutants at the boundary of industrial facilities. By monitoring emissions at the source, companies can quickly identify leaks, equipment failures or accidental releases. This allows for faster response, reducing harmful air pollution and ensuring compliance with environmental regulations. Effective fenceline monitoring helps protect nearby communities, improves air quality, and promotes corporate transparency and accountability. Many industrial sites are complex areas, with many potential air pollution sources. Monitoring your own fence line ensures that any pollution around your site can be attributed to the correct source and, if it does come from your own operations, you can take action.
