Fellowes air purifiers pass the COVID test

Italian university study clears the air on AeraMax Pro.
 
Fellowes-branded air purifiers have been proven to be effective against the spread of COVID-19, according to an Italian university study. 
 
Fellowes said that the AeraMax Pro AM3 and AM4 air purifiers have demonstrated to neutralise the airborne viral load of SARS-CoV-2 entirely and were able to remove 99.9 per cent of the aerosolized SARS-CoV-2 through a single pass of the purifier in testing by the University of Genoa in Genoa, Italy. 
 
Fellowes put its air purifiers to the test against health-threatening airborne-transmitted contaminants as reassurance that their air purifiers are effective at cleaning the air. 
 
According to Dr. Alberto Izzotti at the University of Genoa, School of Medicine, Department of Experimental Medicine, "The AeraMax Pro AM3 and 4 air purifiers were evaluated in extreme laboratory operating conditions, certainly much more critical and difficult than the real environmental situation. This situation was purposely designed since it is necessary to test the effectiveness of similar sanitising devices in critical conditions to guarantee their effective performance. Despite the extreme conditions used, the Fellowes air purification technology was able to neutralize the airborne viral load."
