Ozone and photocatalysis are two techniques that have been proven for 30 years by the IDR group, which is today publishing a white paper to respond, with supporting evidence, to the controversy.
Purified air is a fundamental need, which is moreover in the midst of an epidemic. Different technologies exist for this purpose and compete for the legitimacy of their offer. Some organizations have recently warned against the use of ozone and photocatalysis. Two air purification techniques in which IDR Groupe has been a specialist for 30 years.
Based on recent studies, in accordance with the AFNOR protocol, IDR Groupe denounces these conclusions and makes its recommendations:
- Ozone has been proven to kill SARS-causing coronaviruses and that it has inactivating effects on the proteins responsible for its transmission while respecting the safety rules during its use.
- Photocatalysis is one of the rare technologies that allow the real destruction of the pollutants present in the air in human presence.. This solution does reduce the viral load of VOCs in the air, but it is true that we lack data on Covid-19.
The intention of the white paper produced is to provide detailed answers to the various statements and positions taken, and to respond with scientifically proven recommendations.
Today and tomorrow, air treatment is more than fundamental to protect ourselves on a daily basis and not to neglect our health.
