VIRUSKILLER™ Air Purifier
The air purifier that kills Coronavirus in the air*
The World Health Organisation (WHO) recognises that Coronavirus can be transmitted from person to person via aerosols in the air. VIRUSKILLER™ air purifiers can play an important role in maintaining a safe and hygienic environment as people resume their normal lives, and provide confidence that airborne transmission is far less likely in environments where this technology is installed.
Our range of VIRUSKILLER™ air purifiers use a unique combination of filters with a UV-C reactor chamber to deliver clean air and kill 99.9999% of airborne viruses and bacteria, including Coronavirus, on a single air pass*. VIRUSKILLER™ is also effective across a range of particles including volatile organic compounds (VOCs), hazardous gasses and mould.
*When independently tested against Coronavirus DF2 (a surrogate for Coronavirus), Adenovirus, Influenza and Polio, the unit was found to kill 99.9999% of viruses on a single air pass.
Why do I Need an Air Purifier?
Harmful bacteria, viruses and allergens can be spread in indoor public spaces, as they are released during talking, coughing, sneezing and even regular exhalation. If air quality is not controlled, harmful droplets can linger in the air for hours, even after people have left the room. The impact of the coronavirus pandemic has also raised awareness of the effects of poor air quality within indoor public environments.
Improving indoor air quality using an effective air purification solution, like VIRUSKILLER™, can help prevent the spread of common viruses and illnesses, and reduce the spread of future illness outbreaks. Unlike traditional air purifiers that can ‘trap’ airborne particles and microbes, VIRUSKILLER™ decontaminates the air, by not only trapping but killing airborne viruses, bacteria** and fungi.

VIRUSKILLER™ Air Purifier Technology
Our certified VIRUSKILLER™ air purifiers are designed with state of the art technology and use a triple filtration* process with an inbuilt UV-C reactor chamber, to kill 99.9999% of airborne viruses and bacteria**, including Coronavirus, on a single air pass. Our units provide an all in one solution that effectively filters dirty air, neutralises toxic air and decontaminates sick air.
As standard, our air purifiers contain a triple filter*:
- The pre-filter catches larger parts and irritants
- The carbon filter neutralises most gases
- The particulate filter traps small particulates
VIRUSKILLER™ units also contain some of the most advanced UV-C reaction technology in the world. The UV-C reactor chamber contains short-wave ultraviolet light (UV-C light) which completely neutralises viruses, bacteria, mould, toxic gases and other air pollutants that manage to pass through the filter system so that they can no longer spread.
Improving the quality of indoor air with VIRUSKILLER™ technology can help:
- Prevent the spread of common viruses and illnesses
- Reduce the spread of future outbreaks of illness
- Provide confidence and peace of mind that airborne transmission is far less likely in indoor environments where the technology is installed
