How It Works
ActivePure Technology was developed to effectively control odor causing bacteria, harmful contaminants and molds on surfaces and in the air. The ActivePure (AP) Cell is a unique and proprietary system at the heart of our indoor air quality technology. This advanced technology sends out purifying agents to actively purify these the air and surfaces attacking contaminants and irritants at the source of the problem. In addition to the air quality benefits. It has the added potential benefit to provide energy-sensitive solutions over other designs.
The ActivePure® Cell
ActivePure technology utilizes shortwave UV light to illuminate a “target” surface. The target is a honeycomb matrix treated with a proprietary photocatalytic coating consisting of Titanium Dioxide and a few transition metals to enhance the overall catalytic effect.
Clinically Proven to Dramatically Reduce Contaminants
- Including MRSA, Strep & Viruses
- SARS-CoV-2 (Coronavirus)
- Surface & Air Contamination Reduction
- University Tested Active Technology
- Airborne Particulate Control
- Odor Control & Removal
- Smoke Remediation/Elimination
Indoor Air Quality Concerns
Particles Including Sub-Microns
Pathogens (Mold, Odor Causing Bacteria)
VOC Gasses (Volatile Organic Compounds)
In order to adequately address these concerns, these contaminants must be addressed AT THE SOURCE
Active vs. Passive Technology
Active (ActivePure)
- Aggressive Pro-active Approach
- Attacks Bacteria Effectively
- Technology relies on air current to take it to the source of the issue
- Travels through fabrics to treat contaminants harboring in seat cushions and tight spots where disinfectants/wipes cannot reach
- Many products also incorporate ionization which takes care of particles under .003 microns, helping them drop out of your breathing space and get to the filters.
Passive (Filters, UV, Ionizers, Scrubbers)
- Unassertive Inactive Approach
- Air is required to pass through a unit or near a UV bulb to be treated
- Filters can themselves become a source of pollution – having limited effect on VOCs, odors, indoor pollutants, molds and mildew
- Virtually impossible for all air to pass through the system
