Elevator Airflow COVID-19 Airflow Study

Otis commissioned a study with Dr. Yan Chen, an expert in research into the spread of infectious disease through indoor air systems, to understand the relative risk of COVID-19 exposure among elevator passengers. Elevators are essential to moving people around the world on a daily basis. However, questions about the relative risk of COVID-19 infection in public spaces, including elevators, arose during the global pandemic.

Challenge The challenge was to find a way to communicate the complex findings from a computational fluid dynamics research study, in an impactful way to a diverse set of target audiences (i.e., customers, passengers, media, etc.)

Solution PHG created everything from a technical paper to a video to create accessible content for all of the varied groups: Website, Whitepaper, Technical brief, Videos, Executive summary, Customer presentation, Social graphics. The study’s findings were featured on industry websites as well as national news outlets, both online and on air.
