IN-DEPTH PRODUCT KNOWLEDGE
& WORLD CLASS MODELING EXPERTISE

Our team specializes in applying CFD to indoor environments and has over 10 years of experience with a global resume of projects touching every sector of the building industry. We also have direct access to product design details and proprietary information that can be built into every CFD model for superior accuracy.

LAB-VALIDATED MODELING

We are continually updating our modeling methods to ensure that simulated product performance matches data captured at one of the many test spaces in Price Research Center North (PRCN).
