Eindhoven's air quality reflects its position in the North Brabant industrial and technology corridor, with ASML and the surrounding high-tech manufacturing ecosystem contributing industrial emissions alongside heavy vehicle traffic on the A2 and A67 motorways. The flat Brabant sandy plain provides reasonable wind dispersal on most days, while the broader Rhine-Meuse delta regional background pollution from the Rotterdam industrial complex elevates baseline NO₂ and PM2.5 above the Dutch national average.

Frequently Asked Questions
Is air quality bad in Eindhoven right now?
On 23 August 2026, overall air quality in Eindhoven is fair. AQI is the main air quality indicator at 25.2/100. Pollution peaks around 4:00 PM (O3: 25.2/100).
Will air quality be worse tomorrow in Eindhoven?
On 24 August 2026, air quality conditions in Eindhoven will be similar to today, with AQI forecast at fair at 27.4/100. Pollution peaks around 5:00 PM (O3: 27.4/100).
When is air pollution at its worst in Eindhoven?
People visiting or living in Eindhoven generally notice the biggest dip in air quality during spring and the start of summer, when birch, oak, and pine pollen peaks, or on windless, warm days when traffic on the A2 and industry emissions gather; open sandy farmland around the town helps keep pollutants from building up. Beyond these spells, Eindhoven usually offers conditions comparable to the wider Dutch average.
Are air quality levels in Eindhoven based on measurements or forecasts?
It is forecasts derived by downscaling forecasts provided by EU’s Copernicus Atmosphere Monitoring Service (CAMS) by taking into account local conditions such as traffic patterns. CAMS bases its forecast on satellite measurements of particles and chemical compounds in the atmosphere. Airmine’s services were developed with support from the European Space Agency (ESA)’s Business Applications and Space Solutions (BASS) team.
Why doesn’t the forecast always reflect wildfire impacts?
Airmine’s forecast uses CAMS (Copernicus Atmosphere Monitoring Service) as its background atmospheric model. While CAMS includes wildfire emissions, these are derived from satellite observations and are not available in real time. During rapidly evolving wildfire events, there may therefore be a delay before increased emissions are incorporated into the model. As a result, the forecast may temporarily underestimate PM₂.₅ and other pollutants associated with wildfire smoke.
During rapidly evolving wildfire events, CAMS may lag by approximately 1–2 days before increased wildfire emissions are fully represented, which can lead to temporary underestimation of PM₂.₅ concentrations in Airmine’s forecast.
