International carpet manufacturer Desso has launched a carpet which the company claims can clean indoor air.
The new carpet called Airmaster is primarily designed for implementation in offices, hospitals, schools and other public buildings as it reduces the amount of dist and particulate matter floating in the air, the company said.
Independent tests have confirmed that Airmaster is eight times more effective in capturing and retaining fine dust than hard flooring and four times more effective than standard carpeting solutions, according to Desso.
“Airmaster is a significant step forward from standard carpet in improving interior air quality and will be welcomed throughout the region and internationally,” said Desso regional manager for the Middle East & North Africa Andre Dulka.
The carpet is based on patented technology and works by reducing the incidence of potentially harmful allergy-producing particles by safely trapping and immobilising them.
