The funds made available by the government will be allocated for constructing new schools and upgrading existing ones. The works will start when the school year ends, and have been made possible by unlocking the stability plan for 2014 and 2015 (ministerial decree dated 13/06/2014 and ministerial decree dated 30/06/2014) and by allocating 510 million Euro to the "School Plan" by CIPE (Inter-ministerial Committee for Economic Programming). The overall 1,094,000,000 allocation will be used to support the provisions of the plan, which includes three areas: New Schools: about 400 building sites – either ongoing or about to be opened – for new construction and substantial maintenance of buildings, which absorb about 244 million Euro. Safe Schools: about 2500 buildings will undergo work to be made safe, with an allocation of 400 million Euro. The projects have already been approved and will be initiated after the decision approval procedure. Beautiful Schools: about 7800 buildings will be the recipients of an overall allocation of 110 million Euro for minor maintenance, decoration and functional renovation. A further 300 million will be released next year.

The National Archaeological Museum of Naples will soon inaugurate the renovated area that holds the Egyptian Collection, which ranks second in Italy by importance after the one in the Turin’s Egyptian Museum. The National Archaeological Museum of Naples, one of the first to be set up in Europe between the late eighteenth and early nineteenth century, housed in a monumental Seventeenth century palazzo, boasts the richest and most valuable collection of works of art and artefacts of archaeological interest in Italy. On April 1st, 2015 the Egyptian Museum of Turin showed its new layout, stemming from 5 years of design and construction work and an investment of 50 million Euro. The outcome is considered to be outstanding by all the world’s leading experts. The collection of finds is spread on an overall surface of 10,000 square metres, up from the previous 6,400, over four floors, connected by an escalator system that mimics an ideal journey upstream the Nile, designed by scenographer Dante Ferretti. A true cultural jewel, which is already expected to attract long queues of visitors from all over the world. The second museum by importance worldwide, after the one in Cairo. Sabiana took part in these important renovation projects, supplying Carisma and UTA fan coils for air conditioning the buildings.

The Council of Ministers approved yesterday the law decree prepared by Minister Dario Franceschini for the protection of the cultural heritage, cultural development and boosting tourism, including a 30% tax credit applied for hotel renovations. The Law Decree implements the intention declared about a month ago by the premier Matteo Renzi to introduce incentives for building restoration and energy upgrades of hotels, through tax credit mechanisms and short amortisation up to 3 years at most. This is a good opportunity for Sabiana, which is able to offer innovative, high energy efficiency conditioning equipment, that assure extremely high standards in indoor air quality thanks to the Crystall filter. These features allow hotel owners to upgrade their facilities to the top of their range, while taking advantage from the government’s bonus.

According to the international GERIE study, published on the European Respiratory Journal, the elderly guests have trouble breathing in residential care homes in half of Europe due to the poor quality of the air they breathe. The study gathered data analysing the ambient air in 50 residential care homes in 7 countries, including Italy, and monitoring the conditions of 600 elderly guests, to look for the relationship between air quality in the residence and breathing health of the guests. We measured the concentrations of inhalable dust such as PM10 and ultra fine dust such as PM0.1, as well as formaldehyde and irritating and polluting gases, i.e. nitrogen dioxide and ozone. Furthermore, although it is not exactly a pollutant but an air quality indicator, we have also analysed the quantity of carbon dioxide, which tends to rise if the rooms are poorly ventilated, says Giovanni Viegi, coordinator of the survey and director of the Institute for Biomedicine and Molecular Immunology of Palermo’s CNR. The analysis highlights – with no significant differences between the various countries – that the facilities have rather high concentrations of all the pollutants analysed and that only one guest out of five is able to adequately change the air of their room. As the room smog increases, so does the elderly guests’ respiratory discomfort. "A number of sources are responsible for the pollution found in residential care homes,” – says Viegi. “The most significant ones are ingress of external pollutants, gas produced by kitchens and boilers, organic substances released by construction materials, furniture and cleaning products. Tobacco smoke should also be included, if the smoking ban is not observed or if it is allowed to smoke outside the building.” The elderly are very sensitive to “dirty” air because their immune defences are lower and if they live in residential care homes they are forced to remain in indoor premises, with a lot of other people and few opportunities to move: all elements that increase exposure and worsen the general respiratory health.
