The benefits of fresh air and natural lighting for supporting speedy patient recovery are clear. Our project applications include hospitals and healthcare centres.
From sports halls to restaurants, we offer a range of standard and bespoke solutions for this diverse sector which has particular design requirements for each application.
A supply of fresh air at the right temperature, occupant control and natural lighting are proven to benefit staff well-being and productivity, as well as reducing levels of sick days.
Enhancing customer in store experience, minimising running costs and meeting carbon reduction targets are all important a time when many retailers are facing challenging market conditions.
Non-domestic buildings are responsible for 17% UK carbon emissions, and industry is playing its part in adopting low carbon natural ventilation and lighting solutions.
We work with building professionals across the supply chain to design and deliver low carbon natural lighting solutions for residential properties.

“Monodraught devised a solution to re-use the existing equipment. As a result, we were able to ensure as little disruption as possible and maximize the value of previous investments. We are confident that we have installed a resilient solution.”

“Monodraught were engaged to design, manufacture and install the bespoke Sunpipe system. Their design and technical knowledge was superb. The systems will help to create a brighter and more sustainable indoor environment at Battersea Power Station when it opens to the public”.

"We selected the innovative Monodraught solution which ensures very efficient ventilation during the day when the children are in class and free-cooling at night. This enables the school to guarantee an ambitious ventilation rate. We were pleased to create a design which uses the environment as a strength rather than a constraint."

"EllisCo are delighted to be part of this fantastic development for the University of Canterbury. The Monodraught SUNCATCHER system will not only provide sustainable ventilation for the users of the building but also bring in natural daylight which studies have shown can improve health and well-being for students and staff in the building"

We take the view that a holistic approach to engineering design results in more complete and fully integrated solutions, which apply to an entire building. We decided to replace many of the conventional skylights originally proposed by using Monodraught Sunpipes because of the many advantages that these Sunpipe systems provide. We considered that Windcatchers were an excellent way to ensure good natural air distribution and to meet the brief of providing a cost effective natural ventilation system within the building envelope budget.
