In 2021, the French Professional Organization for the Prevention of Occupational Hazards in the Construction Industry (OPPBTP) conducted a large-scale experiment involving 850 participants to test Canaria, a pioneering device for heatstroke prevention. The trial resulted in zero incidents of heatstroke, and the feedback from post-experiment surveys was overwhelmingly positive. Consequently, Canaria has been exclusively recommended in the OPPBTP catalog as a preferred solution for combating heatstroke.
