Pure air and ideal temperature at the new Milanello sports centre with Clivet systems

During physical activity, particularly aerobic exercise, our breathing rate increases and we take in more air into our lungs. If the air an athlete breathes is not clean, with every single breath they take in, the amount of pollutants, fine particulate matter, etc., that they inhale also increases, with negative consequences for their health and performance. 

The Clivet air conditioning system not only guarantees the optimum temperature all year round, but also ensures that athletes always breathe clean air. This allows athletes to train in an environment that enables them to fully realise their potential for a team that constantly strives for excellence and to improve its performance.
