Airthings

Airthings is a company based in Oslo, Norway, that specializes in developing user-friendly digital radon detectors and indoor air quality monitoring solutions. Its primary customers are homeowners in radon-prone regions of the United States, Canada, and Europe, who utilize the devices to assess their risk of radon exposure, a radioactive gas linked to approximately 20,000 annual deaths and recognized as the second leading cause of lung cancer after smoking. Airthings aims to modernize the detection process by providing technology that outperforms traditional charcoal detectors, which are often cumbersome and require lengthy lab analysis for results. The company offers a range of products, including air quality monitors and purifiers, through its three business segments: Airthings for Consumer, Airthings for Business, and Airthings for Professionals. The majority of its revenue is derived from the consumer segment, which combines hardware with software to help users maintain a healthy indoor environment while also optimizing energy efficiency.
