Indoor air quality

Air pollution in confined spaces is an important public health issue, with significant social and economic implications. The high concentration of contaminants in such environments has a negative - albeit not acute - impact on the health and wellbeing of people, especially in case of long periods of exposure. The European commissions have established guideline values for the main indoors pollutants. Germany, France, Holland, Finland, Belgium and Italy have started monitoring and sampling the key indoor pollutants. On the matter of Indoor Air Quality, the World Health Organisation (WHO), the Italian National Health Institute, the American Society of Heating, Refrigerating and Air-Conditioning Engineers (ASHRAE), the Scientific Committee on Health and Environmental Risks (SCHER), and the European Commission for Science and Technology have concluded that it is necessary to reduce the sources of contaminations as well as the concentrations of the pollutants included in the shared European list.

Molecular Medicine Department – Padua University

The Department of Molecular Medicine, directed by prof. Andrea Crisanti, has tested the Non Thermal Plasma technology adopted in Jonix devices in laboratory to verify its virucidal activity.

The results obtained show that the tested device (Jonix CUBE - Non Thermal Plasma technology) has an effective antiviral activity against SARS-CoV-2 (the so-called Covid-19), with a reduction of the viral load equal to 99.9999% .

To ensure maximum precision and accuracy, the test was performed in compliance with the UNI EN 14476: 2019 standard "Quantitative suspension test for the evaluation of virucidal activity in the medical field - Test method and requirements (phase 2, stage 1)" and the UNI EN 17272: 2020 standard “Method for disinfecting indoor air by automated processes - Determination of bactericidal, mycobactericidal, sporicidal, fungicidal, yeasticidal, virucidal and phagocytic activity”. The virucidal performances has been tested using the SARS - CoV-2 (Covid-19) strain. All experiments were conducted inside Biosafety Level 3 Laboratory (BSL3).

Bio Safe

Bio-Safe® certification: certificates excellent indoor living comfort.

Validated products

Jonix products have been tested, according to the patented Bio-Safe® protocol which has verified and certified their effectiveness in reducing pollutants. The products have been tested, according to the Bio-Safe® protocol, through laboratory tests conducted inside test chambers (UNI EN 16000) to verify their emission potential and through environmental sampling (UNI EN 14412) to assess the level of indoor air purification achieved within the premises of use.

Passing all the stringent assessment thresholds has led these products to obtain the Bio-Safe® Validation Seal: a guarantee mark which certificates excellent indoor living comfort

Environmental health certification

Bio-Safe® certifies environments equipped with Jonix air purification systems, through a patented analysis protocol

Seal of Excellence – Horizon 2020

We got awarded with the Seal of Excellence – Horizon 2020!

The European Commission, within the EU framework programme for research and innovation 2014-2020, awarded Jonix with the Seal of Excellence which certifies the high-quality degree of the project proposal “JONIXAirPlasma”. This will help Jonix develop further the NTP (Non Thermal Plasma) Technology for indoor air purification.
