ASTHMA WEEK | 1–7 SEPTEMBER 💜
Asthma Week 2026 is shining a light on women and asthma, and how hormonal changes throughout life can affect asthma and what women need to know to stay in control of their symptoms.
DID YOU KNOW? 💜
1 in 5 Australian women live with asthma, and women are twice as likely to die from asthma as men?
Hormonal changes throughout life — including puberty, pregnancy, perimenopause and menopause — can affect airway inflammation and asthma control. Environmental factors can also make asthma more difficult to manage.
That’s why maintaining a clean, healthy indoor environment is an important part of reducing the build-up of potential irritants and allergens such as dust, dust mites, mould and pet dander.
Carpets, rugs and furnishings can absorb and hold onto dust, dirt, allergens, odours and other pollutants.
Professional carpet and upholstery cleaning can help remove the build-up of these unwanted contaminants and contribute to a cleaner, healthier indoor environment.
At Chem-Dry Austyle, promoting healthier cleaning and helping create healthier indoor environments is at the heart of everything we do. 💚
For almost 50 years, Chem-Dry has been committed to providing innovative cleaning solutions and professional services to help keep homes and workplaces cleaner, healthier and more comfortable.
💜 This Asthma Week, let’s shine a light on women’s health — and the importance of the environment we breathe in every day.
