Concerned about air pollution in your city? You should be more concerned about the air you inhale while indoors. Surprisingly, the indoor air tends to be five times (or even more) polluted than the outdoor air. Indoor air pollutants are more prone to lead to health hazards than outdoor air, as we spend more than 90 percent of our time indoors – whether it is your home, office or a restaurant.

The question here is, what makes the indoor environment so toxic? Here is the answer. Formaldehyde and VOC (Volatile Organic Compound) that are present inside every type of residential units. Often found in everyday products such as adhesive material, wood furniture, concrete, carpets, mats, blankets, roof, air conditioners, refrigerators, and other insulation materials.

These products release colorless gases and noxious air that last for years and causes watering in eyes, coughing & wheezing, irritation in nose and throat and various respiratory problems.

Air purifiers/cleaners are some readily available and handy solutions to battle indoor pollution but they consume a lot of electricity. Air-purifying paints are a more economical and practical choice.

Wondering how an air-purifying wall paint works? Well, it contains anti-formaldehyde with active carbons, which continuously absorbs harmful air pollutants of the indoor space to convert them into water vapor and clean fresh air to ensure a healthy indoor environment.
