The air purification market has been expanding very quickly in the last period, thanks above all to the very special period we experienced due to the pandemic.
People are increasingly aware that having a healthy environment in their interior spaces is essential for living well. After all, is there anything more essential than the air we breathe every day?
Not everyone is aware that the indoor air we breathe in our homes or offices can be up to 5 times more polluted than the outdoor air, according to data from the World Health Organization (WHO). And the solutions that are proposed on the market often represent old, expensive and polluting technologies.
Vitesy recognized this problem and embraced it in an innovative way by asking a very specific and serious question:
"Why provide consumers with polluting and unsustainable solutions, for the natural right of every person to breathe healthy and clean air?"
Vitesy technology uses photocatlysis, also known as PCO. PCO stands for PhotoCatalytic Oxidation. It is an innovative process that not only blocks pollutants such as HEPA filters, but eliminates them through a safe, effective and sustainable process.
In fact, HEPA filters block particle pollutants thanks to their tight and dense meshes, in this way the air that passes beyond the filter is renewed since the pollutants have been "captured" by the thick layers present in the filter, which makes it definitely an efficient and functioning technology for different purposes and needs.
However, there is a criticality related to their operation that cannot be ignored, because this technology should be analyzed only partially.
Quoting a study conducted by Chuaybamroong and published in the "Indoor Air: International Journal of Indoor Environment and Health", important conclusions emerged on the microenvironment that is created inside the filter, which can harm the purification process itself:
