SiteHive is one of Australia’s greatest hardware startup successes measuring environmental impact. Bringing scalable IoT into the built environment, the technology we helped develop simplifies workflow, improves on-site compliance, and adds value across the chain.

Co-founder Ben Cooper-Woolley spent 12 years in consulting engineering in construction but become increasingly frustrated with the lack of modern tools for monitoring and managing the environmental impact of construction projects. The legacy tools were old, expensive and hard to use. With urban populations growing in close proximity to large numbers of infrastructure projects, Ben saw the need for smaller, cheaper tools for monitoring noise, dust, vibration, and water quality.
Ben met co-founder Adam Ferguson at an Antler startup residency and together conceived of a better way of delivering the technology needed. They identified optical particle counter technology alongside standard noise, vibration and media sensors for capturing data. The idea was to provide real-time data, audio and images on a range of environmental measures. This information would then be transmitted to the cloud where it could be displayed. Site teams could then proactively manage a project’s environmental impact. The end result was SiteHive.
On this project Xentronics worked closely with site hive to deliver the following:
We developed a PCB in the distinctive hexagonal footprint of the SiteHive Hexanodes. This included hosting an optical particle counter (MP2.5 & PM10) measures dust. Placeholder text to be updated, more placeholder text to be updated and even more placeholder text.
