How it Works
The Science Behind Clean Air
Traditional PCO Technology Limitations:
- Is Passive – Often referred to as a PCO filter because they only benefit what reaches the catalyst. No AOPs or plasma produced, Minimal Microbial and VOC reduction
- Only Uses – Single Frequency UV lamp.
- Only Provides – Minimal catalytic reaction as Catalysts only consist of course grade Titanium Dioxide.
- Old Methods – Typically applied to ineffective mesh material with limited surface versus advanced honeycomb design.
- Loses effectiveness over time – No primer on target surface – meaning weaker single catalyst also often flakes/degrades in use.
Photocatalytic Oxidation
Photocatalytic oxidation (PCO) technology uses energy to activate a catalyst, turning moisture into products that continuously clean your space.
- Photo catalytic oxidation effectiveness is determined by both light source quality and the catalyst being used. If not balanced well, these can cause intermittent light waves producing erratic results.
- Currently all alternative catalysts are coated with Titanium Dioxide whereas Greentech uses 4 additional synergistic components. These produce 16 times more hydroxyls on average meaning more effective reach and better sanitised, cleaner air.
- Moreover, traditional technologies reduce the overall production of hydroxyls and are only effective around the unit, requiring more less effective units.
The Horti Advantage: Photocatalytic Oxidation with Cutting Edge Technology
Active Radiant Catalysis®
- More powerful Inactivates microbes on the catalytic surface but also creates Oxygen and Hydrogen compounds (AOPs) meaning purified air and surfaces throughout your ventilated space.
- More reliable and effective. Broad Spectrum USA made UV lamp – with multiple wavelengths meaning significantly increased activation of catalyst
- Patented. Catalyst design using synergistic materials specially selected to increase catalytic reactions as well as hydrophilic
qualities to attract water vapor
- Enhanced range. Catalyst applied to a honeycomb matrix – provides 16.8 times more surface area than a flat surface,
increasing oxidizer production
- Real durability. Epoxy Primer apply to aluminum honeycomb –
ensures adhesion of catalyst
Mould Spore Reduction in 36hrs
Times more effective than any PCO on market
