Probe Industries, a global innovator in industrial odor and dust control technology, has launched an industry-first odor enhancement solution that transforms air quality at industrial sites to meet legal requirements for cleaner, healthier and more sustainable environments for workers, visitors and surrounding communities.  

Industrial environments - including waste management, water treatment and processing facilities - are often associated with persistent, unpleasant odors that can affect workers and people living in surrounding areas. Evidence links poor air quality and malodors with headaches, irritation, tiredness, low mood, stress and other health-related symptoms, with waste and recycling sectors recording significantly higher sickness absence (12.3 days compared to 6.4 days) than typical UK averages according to the Health and Safety Executive.(1) At the same time, operators face increasing pressure from regulators and local communities to improve air quality and control odor and emissions in line with environmental laws and permit conditions.

Based on Probe Industries’ leading AiroPure® odor neutralization technology used widely across the waste management, water treatment, healthcare and hospitality sectors, new AiroVive®, is the world’s first industrial odor enhancer that combines a biodegradable, non-toxic odor neutralizer with mood-boosting fragrance design.   

AiroPure is a patented odor elimination solution which works at molecular level to destroy odors and harmful compounds at industrial manufacturing, processing and treatment plants. Independent performance tests show a 100 percent reduction in sulfur dioxide and hydrogen sulfide emissions and a 99.4 percent reduction in ammonia and amines, with employees at trial sites reporting a significant improvement in air quality and working conditions. 

With AiroPure’s proven odor neutralization technology at its core, AiroVive not only captures and contains odor at source but also adds a bespoke, mood-enhancing fragrance to boost wellbeing. The innovative formula is non-hazardous, non-toxic and ISO 14001 compliant to meet environmental responsibility targets. 

The odor enhancement technology can integrate directly into existing misting, direct spray and liquid injection operations for flexible deployment across a wide range of applications, including transfer stations, landfill sites, recycling facilities and water processing operations.  

Victoria Taylor, CEO at Probe Industries comments, “Industrial odors affect local air quality as well as workplace performance and productivity. We have worked with world-renowned fragrance experts to design a diverse range of scents inspired by the restorative powers of nature and tailored to accompany our proven underlying odor control technology. Based on more than 30 years of neuroscience and developed using detailed consumer research supported by artificial intelligence, AiroVive replaces unpleasant odors with mood-enhancing fragrances, showing a strong commitment to both the workforce and the local community, and demonstrating full regulatory compliance.” 

AiroVive is the latest extension of Probe Industries’ world-class portfolio of patented systems which help make industrial environments cleaner, safer and more sustainable in compliance with ISO 14001. Market leading solutions include AiroNaut™, ProFog™, ProActive™, ProDry™ and ProRain™, which offer targeted odor removal, dust suppression and misting applications.
