Research Reveals Air Quality Concerns
Recent studies have uncovered alarming levels of harmful chemicals in the air of bouldering gyms. Researchers found that the concentrations of these chemicals, originating from climbing shoe soles, can exceed those found on busy streets. This highlights a significant health risk for climbers and gym-goers alike.
As the popularity of indoor climbing continues to soar, it is crucial to understand the impacts of shoe chemicals on air quality. The presence of these pollutants can pose serious health risks, raising concerns about the safety measures in place at climbing facilities. Gym operators and climbers need to be aware of these findings to ensure a healthier indoor environment.
