Elevators
Reliable hygiene and odour control in confined spaces
Elevators are high-use, enclosed areas where maintaining air quality and hygiene is essential. With limited ventilation and frequent footfall, odours and microorganisms can quickly accumulate. Traditional cleaning methods cannot control what happens between cleans, and air inside the lift can remain stale or contaminated long after use.
Why elevator hygiene matters
Every elevator journey brings a mix of occupants from different areas of the building, all sharing the same confined air. Although physical contact time is brief, airborne microorganisms and odour particles can remain suspended for extended periods. Independent studies have shown that in enclosed spaces, bacteria and other contaminants can persist in the air for over an hour.
This means that during a single day, an elevator may expose occupants to residual air from hundreds of individuals who would never otherwise share the same environment. Regular cleaning cannot address this airborne risk between uses, making continuous air and odour control essential for occupant wellbeing and reassurance.
The AIRsteril advantage
AIRsteril elevator systems operate continuously to control bacteria, viruses, mould and odours throughout the cabin. The concealed unit works silently, requiring no user interaction and no added fragrance.
This proven technology:
• Removes odours at the source and prevents recontamination.
• Reduces microorganisms to maintain a healthier environment.
• Operates safely 24 hours a day with no chemicals or filters.
• Helps demonstrate visible hygiene standards to building users.
Independent testing in Germany has shown that airborne microorganisms can remain suspended for over an hour after release. With AIRsteril in operation, microorganisms were reduced by over 99.99% within ten minutes, ensuring cleaner air and improved hygiene even in the most confined environments.
Installation and operation
Compact and discreet, AIRsteril elevator units can be fitted into the car ceiling or service panel. Once installed, the system runs automatically whenever power is supplied. Maintenance is minimal, requiring only an annual lamp change.
Summary
Continuous protection where ventilation and space are limited.
No odours, no chemicals, no disruption.
Enhance user confidence and hygiene standards with AIRsteril.
