Systemair launches new software company in India
The ventilation company Systemair has launched a new software company in India.
The company is a joint venture between Systemair (60%) and the Indian software
company Mechartés (40%). The new company, Systemair Software, will develop
programs for computer simulation of currents in rooms, energy modelling of
buildings, simulation of evacuation of CO and CO2 from parking buildings and
develop software documentation for Systemair´s products.
Mechartés is an offshoot from Indian Institute of Technology and develops
software for the defence and other technical industries.
- We see a large demand for this type of service. Of special interest is the
possibility to simulate the smoke and heat development in parking garages and
tunnel fires, where it is very important to have the right ventilation capacity
in order to swiftly evacuate the poisonous smoke gases, says Svein Nilsen,
Marketing Director for Systemair. We have worked successfully with Merchartés in
the past and have cooperated well with them and have found them to be very
competent in their field.
Details of the new company were presented to a gathering of some 140 invited
guests at the Swedish Embassy in New Delhi. The new company will be lead by
Managing Director Mr Shishir Gupta previously of Mechartés.
