Airora for Schools

​
​​24/7 whole-space protection from ALL types of germs, allergens, pollutants, irritants and odours

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. Novoselac & 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!

Indoor air pollution damages childrens education

​Schools in urban areas are exposed to significantly higher levels of indoor air pollution.
  • Among Australian schoolchildren an estimated 10% have asthma and, of those, 42% miss days off school as a result. (1)
  • A large scale study of school children found that the concentration of mould found in floor dust was associated with headache, dizziness and concentration problems. (1)
  • Among Australian schoolchildren an estimated 8% have allergic rhinitis which has been found to be linked to reduced ability to perform schoolwork. (1)
  • Only 1 part per million of additional carbon monoxide in a school can cause an almost 4% increase in absenteeism. (2)​
  • Researchers have found that seasonal pollen allergies are linked to reduced cognitive performance and poorer school test results. (3)
  • Mould in schools has been associated with increased respiratory health symptoms such as coughing, wheezing and allergic rhinitis; greater prevalence of asthma; and respiratory-related absenteeism. (1, 4)

Protecting our children

Picture
Indoor air is typically five times more polluted than outdoor air, sadly, schools and nurseries are no exception.

​Poor air quality in schools and nurseries has been of growing concern since well before the disasterous impact of COVID-19. Poor air quality not just effects the growing number of children suffering from asthma, but has also been shown to increase absenteeism and reduce performance.


Since the outbreak of the COVID-19, scientific research has demonstrated that airborne virus can remain active for many hours, and thus crowded indoor spaces, such as classrooms, present a very high risk of cross-infection.

​In an attempt to improve air quality, schools have sometimes employed noisy, large, in-room air 'filters'. However, the UK's SAGE committee assessed all types of air filter and concluded that they all take a substantial period to achieve a limited reduction in air borne (and no reduction in surface borne) germs, and can neither quickly respond to new sources of infection, nor provide a real time person to person infection barrier.
Picture
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 germ from exposed surfaces, neutralises allergens and removes gaseous pollution, irritants and odours!

Nothing else comes close!

School benefits

Staff protected
Healthy students
​Improved air quality
​Staff, child and parental reassurance
Bringing the outside, inside
Covid has demonstrated the dangers that staff face during an infectious outbreak, and the resulting resource challenges.
Schoolchildren are more susceptible to illness and missing school. They also benefit from cleaner air for growth, development, and physical activity.
Schools in urban areas face high levels of outdoor air pollution contaminating the air indoors.
By adopting Airora's cutting edge technology,  schools can provide crucial  reassurance to all  staff, parents and children.
With poor ventilation and indoor pollutants students often miss out on experiencing the benefits of that fresh, clean air feeling.
Airora protects staff from both airborne and surface cross infection  during all types of  infectious outbreak.
​Airora decontaminates all of the air and surfaces, providing real-time protection against all types of pathogen.​
​Airora breaks down or neutralises all common VOCs, irritants and allergens, providing clean, safe air for everyone.
​Airora can win the trust of children, their families, and staff, ensuring everyone feels protected while in school.
By emulating nature, Airora recreates that fresh and clean outdoor feeling we all love, indoors.
Airora destroys ALL types of air and surface borne germs, without exception
Adopt Airora today and future proof your defences

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