I purificatori AeraMax Pro AM3 e AM4 di Fellowes, a leading brand in air purification in large environments, have proven themselves effective in the complete neutralization of the airborne viral load of Covid by removing 99.9999% of the aerosolized virus, through a single passage of air in the machine.
Fellowes: T & T, tecnologia e test
To confirm it the Department of Experimental Medicine of the University of Genoa who conducted the laboratory test. This latest study adds to the results already achieved at the beginning of 2021, which demonstrated the ability to reduce the aerial concentration of a surrogate coronavirus (HCoV-229E) by 99.99%, as well as the previous tests on the H1N1 influenza virus.
For over ten years, Fellowes AeraMax purifiers are the leading choice for indoor air purification. Fellowes is the only solution that combines True HEPA-based filtration with EnviroSmart ™ and PureView ™ technologies. EnviroSmart uses multiple sensors that constantly monitor the presence of contaminants and the occupancy of the room, automatically adjusting the settings to always provide maximum protection. PureView makes the invisible visible, showing the situation of the air quality and the operation of the machine in real time on a display for maximum peace of mind for the occupants of the room. With the new laboratory test, the company continues to test its purifiers against airborne contaminants that pose a threat to health, demonstrating their effectiveness.
The point of view
“Quality and innovation are at the heart of our work and our product offering. We strongly believe in the importance of obtaining ratifications from independent third parties. In particular, as regards our purifiers, it was important to certify the effectiveness in removing airborne contaminants from the air of closed environments, “he declares Monica Leonardi, Marketing and Communications Director of Fellowes Brands Italia. “Having obtained certification from the Department of Experimental Medicine of the Faculty of Medicine of the University of Genoa regarding the complete neutralization of the airborne viral load of the SARS-CoV-2 virus is a great recognition for us. Thanks to the results of this study, which are added to the extremely positive results of the previous tests against the Human Coronavirus 229E and the H1N1 flu, we provide customers with a range of products of the highest level capable of making the air truly pure and free. of pathogens “.
“The AeraMax Pro AM3 and AM4 purifiers have been put to the test in extreme laboratory test conditions, certainly much more critical and difficult than the real environmental situation. This situation was created specifically to test the effectiveness of sanitation devices in very complex conditions. Despite the extreme conditions, Fellowes’ air purification technology managed to neutralize the airborne viral load, ”says the Doctor Alberto Izzotti, Full Professor of Hygiene and Preventive Medicine at the University of Genoa, head of the test at the Department of Experimental Medicine of the Faculty of Medicine.
Fellowes AeraMax air purifiers have also been shown to be effective in reducing the aerial concentration of Human Coronavirus 229E in the test chamber, achieving 99.99% aerial reduction within one hour of operation. Further tests have certified the ability of AeraMax Pro purifiers to eliminate 99.9% of the H1N1 virus within 35 minutes of operation.
