The well-being benefits of nature are well known – but do you know the power of hydroxyl radicals?
Abundant in nature, hydroxyl radicals (also known as OH radicals) have the capacity to inhibit pollutants, viruses, and bacteria to clean and deodorise. nanoe™ X, technology can bring these incredible benefits indoors so that hard surfaces, soft furnishings, and the indoor environment can be a cleaner and pleasant place to be, whether at home, at work, or visiting hotels, shops, restaurants etc.
A naturally occurring process
Hydroxyl radicals are unstable molecules looking to react with other elements like hydrogen, capturing it. Thanks to this reaction, hydroxyl radicals have the potential to inhibit the growth of pollutants such as bacteria, viruses, moulds, and odours, breaking them down and neutralising the unpleasant effects. This naturally occurring process has major benefits to improve indoor environments.
What is unique about nanoe™ X?
Hydroxyl radicals inhibit pollutants, certain types of viruses, and bacteria to clean and deodorise. Thanks to this advanced technology, even tightly woven fabrics can be treated using this solution, meaning that curtains, blinds, carpets and furniture can all benefit from this technology to inhibit hazardous substances – including on hard surfaces and, of course, the air that we breathe.
