Martine Davis, President of Indoor Environmental Testing, Inc. founded the company in 2000. A computer engineer for 20 years, Martine was drawn to Environmental Health and Air Quality after she suffered a devastating illness later found to be caused by a "sick home". At the time, little was known about environmental illness. She was mis-diagnosed with several diseases and not given much hope for recovery .
In order to get well, Martine embarked on a nationwide hunt for education and training on the effects of indoor air pollution and the impact of the building environment on human health.
Armed with this information, Martine was able to conduct testing in her own home and implement remediation procedures. She has now fully recovered and enjoys good health once again. In addition to investigating Indoor Air Quality problems, Martine is a speaker and writer on Environmental Health issues.
Qualifications
Martine is a graduate of Illinois State University and the Institute for Building Biology and Ecology. She is Certified by the American IAQ Council as a CIE (Certified Indoor Environmentalist) and a CRMI (Certified Residential Mold Inspector).
The CIE certification is accredited by the Council for Engineering and Scientific Specialty Boards (CESB), a nationally recognized independent accreditation body.
IAQ Council certifications are the ONLY designations in indoor air quality to earn accreditation.
Our Goal
Today 95% of homes and 60% of offices have one or more environmental pollution problems. However, much can be done by each individual to create a health supporting environment. IET’s mission is to help people do this.
IET’s expertise includes indoor environmental inspections, measurement and interpretation of environmental parameters, safe building practices, air and water purification systems, and countermeasures for electromagnetic and high frequency radiation exposure.
Our basic purpose is to help people realize that the indoor environment has a profound influence on health. We have the knowledge and technology to help people evaluate indoor environments and make them health-supporting. Whether the problem is cell phone tower radiation or toxigenic mold, it can be mitigated and scientifically tested to confirm a successful outcome.
IET, Inc. applies knowledge based on the principles of Building Biology which were developed in Europe over the past three decades.
