Bipolar Ionisation system
Our installed Bipolar Ionization units produce Bio–Climate Negative Ions (The Air Vitamin) to proactively destroy any unhealthy microorganism by damaging the cells of the viruses and reacting with protein of the virus, and then deactivate the virus
Plasma Air’s ionisers use proactive air purification technologies to safely deactivate airborne viruses.
Bipolar ionisation creates millions of negative ions, a proven method of virus destruction.
Recent tests by the Spanish government show that Plasma Air products have been proven to reduce Covid-19 surrogate by 99% airborne and 80% on surfaces.
