Vaisala Receives Johnson Controls Leadership Innovation Award

A long-time customer of Vaisala (Finland), Johnson Controls, has awarded Vaisala for being one of their best suppliers. Vaisala's world-renowned CARBOCAP Carbon Dioxide Transmitters are used, for example, in demand controlled ventilation for maintaining fresh air and good indoor air quality.

Vaisala was awarded the Johnson Controls annual Leadership Innovation Award thanks to their years-long high performance in regards to quality, service, supply chain management, sustainability, and commercial appeal. 

"In addition to on-time deliveries and outstanding quality of our current products, our next generation CARBOCAP Carbon Dioxide Transmitters provide Johnson Controls with a new family of products, incorporating improved performance and reliability", says Gerald Ducharme, Director for Vaisala's Americas Region.

The successful cooperation of the two companies started for over 15 years ago, when Johnson Controls needed a reliable carbon dioxide transmitter for demand controlled ventilation applications. At that time, building owners and managers realised that considerable energy savings could be gained through demand controlled ventilation, and the market was emerging.

After passing a rigorous technology, design quality and innovation evaluation, Johnson Controls selected Vaisala. Since then, the companies' engineering, purchasing, and business leaders have worked jointly to address market demands.
