Since the first use of biological methods to control air emissions in 1923, people have been fascinated by biological air treatment.

Yet it took until the 1990’s before more advanced methods of biofiltration became available.

In the course of the history of air treatment, Pure Air Solutions was founded to lead the way in modern air treatment, and to set new standards in industrial air treatment. With our knowledge based on over 20 years of practice, we have already introduced various innovations which have enhanced the development of air treatment and set incredibly high standards of performance, size, reliability and ease of operation for air treatment components, systems and complete purification solutions.
