Whatever your business, staff and customer welbeing matters

• Indoor air is on average two to five times more polluted than the air outside. (1) 
• 82% of UK workers have reported contracting an infection from their workplace.  (2) ​
• Emissions of unhealthy Volatile Organic Compounds (VOCs) from equipment, such as copiers and printers, can increase pre-existing levels by 120%. (3,8,9)​
• Emissions from older furniture and materials typically account for up to 30% of the total office VOCs. (5)
• High levels of VOCs can exacerbate allergies and respiratory issues in office workers and contribute towards Sick Building Syndrome. (6)
• 43% of surveyed retail staff working in underground shopping centres displayed skin conditions, 62.4% eye irritation, and 65.6% respiratory symptoms related to Sick Building Syndrome (SBS). (7)

World class safety for your staff

Commercial enterprises were hard hit by the Covid pandemic. To become more resiliant in the future, all must now focus on increasing the safety of their employees by protecting them against germs spreading disease through the air and contaminated surfaces.

But it is not just the the dangerous spread of infections. Common air pollutants, irritants and allergens can reduce productivity and morale due to fatigue, headaches, diminished mental and physical performance, and respiratory issues. (2)

Unfortunately, until recently, businesses have had limited options to improve their defences against poor indoor air quality and the spread of disease.

While in-room air filters were intitially considered promising candidates to reduce infection spread, the UK's SAGE committee quickly concluded that any real world improvement they offered would only be a very, very small fraction of that claimed for the filter itself, while at the same time, drawbacks such as increased noise, would be of concern.

Then along came Airora. ​ Airora is NOT an air filter, Airoa is a hydroxyl diffuser which is 1,000+ times more effective than improved ventilation or any type of filter.

​Airora works by molecular diffusion, independently of air movement, creating a 24/7 real time person to person infection barrier and within minutes, not hours, destroying all types of airborne germs throughout a room.

​And that's not all, Airora simultaneously destroys all types of harmful germs from exposed surfaces, neutralises allergens and removes gaseous pollution, irritants and odours!

Nothing else comes close!

Airora vs Filters

Based on research by the UK Government's Scientific Advisory Group for Emergencies (SAGE) and others, Airora's technology is 1000+ times more effective, and far faster, than that of any in-room air filter.​

That might seem surprising given that filters often claim reductions of 99.95% or even greater. However, such claims are for the removal of germs between the input and output of the device, not for the removal of germs throughout a room. Novosec & Siegel 2009 suggest that circa 50%, rather than 99.95%, would be more accurate measured across a whole room!

Why the huge difference between SAGE's conclusions and the claims of filter manufacturers?

​The reason is simple; as the air in a room is constantly changing, and as by no means all of the air in the room at any one time will have passed through the filter, the efficiency of the filter itself has little bearing on the ability of a filter device to clean all of the air throughout a room.​

As Airora cleanses the air insitu, and works by molecular diffusion, it has none of the constraints that filters suffer from.

Public Health England measured Airora achieving a 99.9999% reduction in hard to kill airborne MS-2 virus in five minutes!

Simply put, Airora is the future of clean, safe indoor air
