Sontay Ltd

This week is National Storytelling Week.

We thought it would be a great opportunity to share the journey of how the Sontay business became market leaders in HVAC & Building Controls.

dating back to 1974, Sontay was first known as an off-shoot and specialist provider of support services to Eaton-Williams?

Medical electronic products were one of our first areas of successful diversification and also proved responsible for the company's name, Sontay - a corruption of the French word for health, 'Sante'.

The colder temperatures are showing no signs of improving any time soon!

That's why it's essential we keep our commercial buildings feeling warm during the winter months.

Through Sontay's specialised Temperature range, it's never been easier to effectively manage the cold in your buildings.

At some point or another, we all face the same issue of balancing stress at work.

Enhancing wellbeing initiatives and prioritizing optimal internal environments can significantly reduce symptoms of poor mental health among building occupants, boosting their performance at work.

Smart sensing technology offers a game-changing solution for commercial and shared workspaces.

During winter, indoor air often becomes dry.

Cold air, which carries less moisture than warm air, enters our buildings and is heated, lowering its relative humidity.

If the relative humidity becomes too low, we become at risk of catching colds, viruses and infections.

In a time where we must manage air quality carefully, Sontay Relative Humidity Sensors become the perfect management system for keeping humidity at healthy levels: https://www.sontay.com/en-gb/products/relative-humidity/

Happy New Year one and all!

It's 2024 and the start of what we hope will be a wonderful year full of joy and happiness.

We hope you've all made your New Year resolutions and we wish you many happy returns...

P.S. a reminder that Sontay is back to business as usual from today onwards!

#2024

Wishing you all a very Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year from Team Sontay!

We hope everyone enjoys the holiday period together with loved ones and to make the most of the time off.

We will see you back again for business as usual from 2nd January.

For now, here's to good tidings and making many happy memories, cheers one and all!

sELFie has broken into Mark Newton's office and asked Gimbels to snap him messing around with the BMS!

As well as fooling around, the elves are causing the rest of us to feel under the weather due to messing with the indoor conditions within the building.

Once again, coming to the rescue, Sense activates the Relative Humidity sensors and prevents bad air from contaminating us.

It's why we're nicknaming him SORA Claus as the saviour we need to enjoy the holiday season...

Things have got completely out of hand at Sontay HQ!

Sparks are flying as sELFie and Gimbels have got their wires crossed and are messing around with the electricity in the office.

We've managed to separate them now and completely condemn this sort of trouble in our business.

They're both on the naughty list for good!

Rockin' around the Christmas tree! (8)

We were treated to a wonderful surprise at Sontay HQ this morning as the two elves had worked together to assemble a stunning new Xmas tree for our office.

sELFie and Gimbels must know a thing or two about decking the halls so we've now given them the full licence to work their magic... elf-cellent work, guys!

Tis the season to be jolly (& not a wally)!

Despite the mischief he caused last year, we've welcomed back sELFie to Team Sontay this festive period but he must be on his best behaviour this time around.

It looks as though he's now got an assistant, Gimbels, to work with from the toyshop so we hope it won't be double trouble this year.

That said, they've already got to work tying James, our Deputy Product Manager's shoes together!

Are you on track in your decarbonisation journey?

As kicks off today in Dubai, it's a stark reminder that the carbon footprint of our buildings remains a significant threat to the long-term future of the natural environment.

Harnessing the power of data through HVAC & Building Controls allows us to adapt and reduce the output of our buildings for greater energy efficiency and performance.

The plummeting temperatures in winter affect the relative humidity inside buildings.

As cold air holds less moisture than warm air, humidity levels drop and can cause a multitude of health issues, including dry & cracked skin, dry & itchy eyes, and uncomfortable sinuses.

In larger buildings such as offices, warehouses and factories, it's important to ventilate heat large areas whilst converting the cold dry air from the outside to warm air inside.

The most obvious threat to occupant wellbeing in winter is temperature!

Besides picking up the chills, colder temperatures in buildings increases the risk of illness from coughs, lung and heart problems and poor mental health.

Sontay's Temperature smart sensing solutions are hard-wired to the BMS to maintain and control heat indoors: https://bit.ly/3GjIaQT

Whether at home or in the office, water leaks in buildings can have major consequences to our health.

If walls become damp, it can result in breathing problems, allergy reactions and skin irritations among other issues.

For almost any commercial environment, Sontay offers a specialised Water Detection range that detects leaks early and prevents negative affects on occupant wellbeing.

Creating smart cities is a concept that may seem futuristic.

However, with modern technology continuing to advance at a rapid rate, & the urgent requirement to build towards a Net Zero future, it's a realistic target for the global built environment to aspire to in the next few years.

Under the control of a BMS or automation system, HVAC & Building Controls has a major role to play in enabling smart buildings and wider infrastructure.

We're all set for tomorrow's Smart Buildings Show!

Taking place at ExCeL London on Wednesday & Thursday, join us for one of the industry's leading events.

Managing and effectively controlling the conditions within buildings is vital for many reasons.

As occupants in commercial buildings, we're sure you would agree that the quality of our working environment can determine our levels of productivity at the job.

With adequate relative humidity, temperature & CO2 level management, our health & wellbeing can be enhanced through HVAC and Building Controls solutions.

COP28 will be here before we know it and it's another opportunity to review our climate action strategy.

At business level, we should prioritise greater energy efficiency in our commercial buildings as a major step in reducing our carbon footprint.

With the built environment still responsible for around 38% of global carbon emissions (source: International Energy Agency), Sontay's SORA range is designed specifically with a Net Zero future in mind: https://bit.ly/3Mp1jW7

Soaring energy costs continue to pose a real threat to businesses.

It's why we rely on HVAC and Building Controls systems to manage energy usage and support efficiency by only activating when necessary.

Here at Sontay, we understand the importance of reducing costs through improving the efficiency of commercial buildings.
