Vox Aeris Wins Department for Transport TRIG
Vox Aeris Wins Department for Transport TRIG Grant to Advance Air Quality Innovation in the London Underground
🚇 Reimagining Air Quality for Underground Transit
We’re excited to share that Vox Aeris has been awarded a Transport Research and Innovation Grant (TRIG) by the UK Department for Transport and Connected Places Catapult. This funding will support our work in improving air quality in the London Underground, tackling one of the most overlooked challenges in urban transit.
The significance of our project was highlighted by the UK government’s official announcement, where Vox Aeris was chosen to provide a testimony. You can read the full release here: UK Government TRIG Announcement.
Why This Matters: Air Quality in Underground Transit
Millions of passengers rely on the London Underground every day, yet air quality in these confined, high-speed environments is a growing concern. Fine particulate matter (PM), metal-rich tube dust, and recirculated air create a challenging ecosystem that traditional filtration methods struggle to address.
At Vox Aeris, we believe clean air should be a fundamental part of public transit systems, not a luxury. This TRIG award enables us to bring deep-tech air purification solutions to one of the most complex transport environments in the world.
What’s Next?
This project is just the beginning. Our goal is to develop scalable, energy-efficient air quality solutions that can be deployed not just in London, but in metro systems worldwide that face similar challenges.
We are grateful to TRIG, the UK Department for Transport, and Connected Places Catapult for recognizing the importance of air quality innovation and supporting cutting-edge technologies that can make public transport cleaner, safer, and more sustainable.
