Excellent Protection

Air Scrub is a totally new, safe, fast and cost effective way of removing contamination from the air outperforming all other traditional techniques.

Fast Working

The Air Scrub process causes the airborne contaminating to rain or fall out of the air within minutes of application, landing on horizontal surfaces for conventional surface cleaning.

Air Scrub Accredited technicians prove success by measuring airborne decontamination before and after treatment.

Removes Airborne Contamination

Air Scrub removes all airborne contamination in minutes making such a difference some actually say, “you can see the air is cleaner”. The process uses a water-based salt solution of Sodium Borate, this fills the air with a 40-micron droplet which encompasses all airborne particles. A second fog of water is absorbed by the salt which becomes too heavy to remain airborne. This simple but patented process causes precipitation where the contamination simply rains out of the air. The fallen solution forms a glycerine film which holds the contamination and prevents it from re aerosolising as the small amount of water used evaporates. The glycerine film lasts 4 days before it decays, and this provides ample time for the client to organise a cleaning company to clean all horizontal surfaces. We provide guidance sheets on how to clean up.

Use to remove:

Mould
Hyphal fragments
Soots
Asbestos
Bacteria
Virus
Chemicals and Odours

This is sanitation by cleaning and removal not biocides.

Customer Comments

After a flood we had some new health problems

We employed Air Scrub who's technicians arrived and used a particle counter to show me how much dust and debris was in the air.

After they did their treatment I could actually see the air was cleaner and they proved it was with their particle counter.

I have felt so much better since that contamination was removed

Mark Peronski March 2014

Applications include: Sanitation of flooded buildings, Fire damage and soot's, Mould decontamination (after surface decontamination), and Building demolitions or generally dusty environments

Building Forensics IAQ

Mould illness, also known as mold-related illness or mold toxicity, can indeed manifest from exposure to mould through various pathways. These exposures can lead to a range of health issues, some of which can be severe, especially in individuals with pre-existing conditions or sensitivities. The three primary exposure routes are—ingestion, percutaneous absorption, and inhalation—Here's a closer look at each route and the implications for mould removal and decontamination:

1. Ingestion: When mould contaminates stored foods like nuts and grains, it can produce mycotoxins that are harmful when ingested. These toxins can cause a variety of symptoms ranging from gastrointestinal disturbances to more severe systemic issues depending on the type and amount of toxin ingested.

2. Percutaneous (Through the Skin): Mycotoxins and other inflammatory agents can also be absorbed through the skin, particularly when individuals come into direct contact with mouldy materials such as furniture, bedding, or during the process of mould removal without proper protection. This route of exposure can lead to dermatological reactions and other inflammatory responses.

3. Inhalation: The most common and potentially hazardous route of exposure is through inhalation of mould spores or fragments. This can occur in environments with high levels of mould growth, such as damp or water-damaged buildings. Inhalation of mould spores or fragments can lead to respiratory symptoms, CIRS and allergic reactions. According to the World Health Organization's 2009 report on dampness and mould, airborne fragments of dead mould spores are significantly more hazardous than whole spores, underscoring the importance of thorough air decontamination in affected environments.

Given the persistence of mould fragments and the potential for re-aerosolization, traditional air cleaning or scrubbing methods may not be effective in removing all particulates from the air, as indicated by the Health and Safety Executive (HSE) paper (REF HSE RR988). This highlights the need for more advanced and effective decontamination processes.

The AirScrub process, utilises a patented method to remove almost all particulates from a property quickly, offering a rapid and efficient solution for mould decontamination. Its endorsement by leading mould and allergy specialists in the USA and its reputation for speed and effectiveness make it an attractive option for addressing mould-related issues, not least its low comparable cost or speed.

When dealing with mould removal or decontamination, especially in cases where building-related illnesses have been identified, it's crucial to employ methods that effectively address the issue at its source, including the removal of airborne particulates to minimize exposure and health risks. The emphasis on air

There are several ways to improve IAQ but most have serious limitation in terms of cost, time and efficiency. These limitations are explained in our Technical Section where we show and prove scientific evidence that Air scrub provides the most effective, fast and affordable results.

Defeat Mould And Bacteria Build Up

Dead mould and bacteria are allergenic or toxic and sub-micron fragments of cell or spore wall become aerosolised and inhaled into the lower respiratory tract and alveoli where blood oxygen transfer occurs.

Air Scrub can remove indoor air pollution in minutes making traditional methods of filtration and ionisation, ozone and fogging obsolete
