Air matters

There are a variety of materials optimal for filtering air and for transforming harmful compounds into non-volatile ones. Open Air Lab has been testing applications, and creating material samples.

Catalytic Paint samples that will transform volatile compounds into non volatile compounds when exposed to UV

Activated Charcoal filters out Volatile Organic Compounds (VOC’s) from air and water. It is an inexpensive low maintenance way to trap unsafe or undesirable particles.

Activated carbon and charcoal absorbs airborne particles such as gasses and odors. It is the only filter that will remove odors including those from pets, chemicals, smoke, and mold.
