PROTECTING TRAVELERS
FROM HIDDEN CARBON
MONOXIDE RISK

A Travel Safely Initiative for Airport Retailers

Eliminate carbon monoxide poisonings for all, especially when traveling, by increasing awareness and product availability for travelers everywhere.

Mission

Our mission is guided by our 3 core pillars:

  • Education & Awareness for Travelers
  • Advancement of Innovative Technology
  • Engagement with Policymakers & Regulators

Vision

Eliminate carbon monoxide poisonings for all, especially when traveling, by increasing awareness and product availability for travelers everywhere.

the hidden travel risk

CO poisoning is silent, odorless, and deadly – yet under-recognized by travelers. Common scenarios include:

Hotels with poor HVAC maintenance

Short-term rentals with gas appliances

Boats, marinas, vacation excursions

Generators or portable heaters in outages / cold destinations

Travelers assume destinations are safe – they often aren’t. Awareness is low, but receptivity to education and tech travel solutions is high.
