ThinkLite Air’s Flair Monitor Earns GBAC STAR™ Registered Status
ThinkLite Air, long focused on improving indoor air quality (IAQ), has earned the GBAC STAR™ Registered designation for its Flair Indoor Air Quality Monitor. Awarded by the Global Biorisk Advisory Council™ (GBAC), a division of ISSA, this recognition signals that Flair meets rigorous expectations for performance and safety—positioning it as a trusted tool for managing air in the spaces where people learn, work, and receive care.
What the GBAC STAR™ Registration Means
GBAC STAR™ Registered status indicates that a product aligns with strict biorisk management best practices. In plain terms, it’s independent confirmation that the Flair Monitor has been evaluated against high standards and delivers reliable results. Organizations can rely on that assurance when choosing technology to help maintain healthier indoor environments. The backing of GBAC, supported by ISSA, gives decision-makers confidence that the device performs as promised.
What the Flair Monitor Measures—and Why It Matters
The Flair Monitor is built to detect a broad range of indoor pollutants with precision. It measures particulate matter (PM), including very small particles down to 0.1 microns—particles often invisible to the eye yet influential to air quality. It also tracks total volatile organic compounds (TVOCs), formaldehyde (HCHO), ozone (O3), and carbon dioxide (CO2), providing a fuller view of what’s in the air. This depth of measurement helps users move beyond guesswork and toward targeted action.
These capabilities are especially relevant as concerns about indoor contaminants grow, including those driven by environmental events like wildfire smoke. The GBAC STAR™ Registered designation underscores the role the Flair Monitor can play in helping protect people inside schools, offices, and healthcare settings—where air quality has a direct impact on comfort and well-being.
Real-Time Insight with the Airlytics® Dashboard
The Flair Monitor connects with the Airlytics® Dashboard to deliver real-time analytics and alerts. This combination turns raw readings into timely, readable insights so teams can track trends, set thresholds, and respond quickly when conditions change. With GBAC’s recognition behind it, users gain confidence in both the accuracy of the data and the decisions informed by it.
Leadership Perspectives
“We are incredibly proud to have our Flair Monitor recognized with the GBAC STAR™ Registered status,” declared Dinesh Wadhwani, CEO of ThinkLite Air. “This accolade not only reflects our commitment to delivering top-tier air quality solutions but also assures our clients of the monitor’s verified performance by an authoritative body.” His remarks highlight two priorities: sustained innovation and third-party validation that the market can trust.
Moreover, John Barrett, Executive Director of ISSA, acknowledged the significance of this program by stating, “Indoor air quality is increasingly paramount, and this certification process successfully identifies solutions that adhere to the highest standards. The ThinkLite Air Flair Monitor exemplifies this commitment, providing organizations with a validated means to effectively manage indoor environments.” His comments reinforce the growing expectation that IAQ tools meet clear, defensible benchmarks.

With GBAC STAR™ Registered status, the Flair Monitor stands out as a dependable option for teams that need consistent, clear readings to guide their IAQ programs and communicate results to stakeholders.
In short, the Flair Monitor doesn’t just measure air; it helps translate quality standards and rigorous testing into everyday reliability. ThinkLite Air continues to center customer needs and environmental health, bringing practical innovation to the ongoing work of keeping indoor spaces safe.
