FELLOWES AERAMAX PRO AIR PURIFIERS CERTIFIED TO
REMOVE 99.9% OF AIRBORNE CORONAVIRUS AND H1N1 FLU
Leading commercial air purification
manufacturer, Fellowes, is pleased to announce
its AeraMax Pro air purifiers have shown a 99.99%
airborne reduction of a coronavirus surrogate
within 60 minutes of operation.
With the recent, intensified focus on the reduction
of airborne transmission of viruses, a number of
worldwide bodies including the Centers for Disease
Control and Prevention (CDC), ASHRAE, as well
as ‘healthy building’ scientific
advocates, have recommended that
portable air cleaners using HEPA
filtration can help in the protection
against SARS-Cov-2.
In response to this, air purification
expert, Fellowes recently arranged
for its AeraMax Pro purifier, which
has a four-stage TRUE HEPA filtration system, to be
independently tested for e icacy in the reduction
of two of the most health-threatening airbornetransmitted
contaminants seen in recent times –
Coronavirus and the H1N1 virus.
Certified by Shanghai WEIPU Chemical Technology
Service Company, Fellowes AeraMax Pro air
purifiers demonstrated e ectiveness in reducing
the aerosolised airborne concentration of Human
Coronavirus 229E in a test chamber, reaching 99.99%
airborne reduction within one hour of operation.
As it is not yet possible, or ethically responsible to
aerosolise Sars-CoV-2 for airborne testing in the
current climate, the Coronavirus 229E was used as a
surrogate to Sars-CoV-2.
Furthermore, AeraMax Pro air purifiers have also
been proven to remove 99.9% of
the H1N1 virus within 35 minutes of
operation, as certified by Airmid Health
Group Limited in Dublin, Ireland.
Darryl Brunt, Country Head - UK
& Ireland at Fellowes Brands said:
“With hygiene and health so high on
the nation’s agenda, many will be
seeking solutions that can help reduce the risk of
the spread of infection, so that the public can safely
return to, and go about their daily lives, whether it be
in the workplace, leisure space or in education and
healthcare establishments.
“I’m delighted that the results of these tests o er the
reassurance that Fellowes AeraMax Pro air purifiers
are indeed
e ective in
removing forms
of coronavirus
from indoor
air.”
For over
a decade,
Fellowes
AeraMax air
purifiers have
been a leading
choice for
localised air
purification.
Fellowes is the only solution that combines True
HEPA filtration with EnviroSmart™ and PureView™
Technologies. EnviroSmart utilises multiple sensors
to monitor contaminants and room occupancy
continuously and adjusts automatically to provide
maximum protection – on demand. PureView makes
the invisible, visible with real-time screen updates on
air quality and machine performance. This immediate
feedback instils peace of mind for room occupants.
