Navigating Success

The journey of SAAM Inc. began when the company, formerly known as Sentelligence, was dedicated to developing Non-Dispersive Infrared (NDIR) technology for monitoring gases, vapors, and functional fluids in the diesel engine industry, primarily focusing on emissions. However, as the Sentelligence team progressed with their work, they recognized the broader potential of their NDIR technology for monitoring air quality.

In light of this realization, the team shifted their focus to developing air quality detection technology and rebranded as SAAM Inc. During this transition, the company received consistent support from investors, purchasers, and an outstanding team, who stood by them and navigated through any challenges.

Today, SAAM Inc. has since established itself as a leading provider of air quality detection solutions, leveraging advanced sensor technology. Their patented absorption spectroscopy, combined with a light scattering particle sensor, offers customers a more detailed and comprehensive air quality analysis.

Utilizing a particle sensor capable of detecting particulate matter ranging from one micrometer to 10 micrometers, SAAM employs one of the most advanced technologies for air quality monitoring. This fusion of technologies enables SAAM to deliver accurate and dependable air quality measurements, providing customers with the assurance they need to maintain the safety and health of their environments.

SAAM Inc. is committed to enhancing global health and safety through affordable air quality, smoke, fire, and gas monitoring devices. Their next-generation S-Series technology aims to prevent hazards by pre-emptively alerting them to dangerous conditions and improving indoor air quality by informing occupants about crucial air quality factors. These all-in-one devices streamline detection needs while offering a comprehensive and cost-effective home and business health and safety solution.
