Construction and renovation projects in buildings can adversely affect building occupants by the release of airborne particulates, biological contaminants, and gases. Careful planning for the Indoor Environmental Quality (IEQ) and the prevention of exposure during these activities is essential. In hospitals and the healthcare sector this is extremely important due to the high risk of spreading infectious disease and creating unhealthy environment for weak patients with low immune system, which make this susceptible to infectious disease, wound infections and more. Project summary During the life-time of any hospital it will face internal changes. Demolition, construction, renovation and repair will all…

Virus Free Air participated in the technology cluster project of TNO division “Technical Sciences”. During a few month, several indoor air quality issues where investigated, discussed and evaluated. Within this project, the air filtration technology of VFA, the ASPRA, was evaluated for the purpose of cleaning the inlet air while being integrated in a unique ventilation concept of TNO and the cluster partners. The ASPRA has proven to have extremely high filtration efficiency with very low pressure drop. Project summary Ventilation is important. Children spend a significant part of their time indoors, and a large part of that in a…

Virus Free Air has developed a method to combine antimicrobial properties with electrical conduction properties in a unique antimicrobial coating. This advancement allows for an even wider range of applications of antimicrobial coatings where electrical conductivity of the coating is required. Project summary Microorganisms such as bacteria and mould are a major cause of various diseases and negative health symptoms. Though rarely noticed, these microorganisms survive and grow on almost any type of surface – a situation that poses an increased risk for infection and disease transmission for people getting in touch with the contaminated surface. Proper hygienic measures and…
