Airee
We are Introducing selected startups of the MonJa program. Please welcome Airee.
Established in 2021, Airee specializes in crafting air purifier filters from entirely biodegradable sheep wool. This innovative approach capitalizes on wool’s inherent electromagnetic properties, effectively drawing in airborne pollutants. The Airee air purifier features a dual-layer filter system: a layer adept at capturing coarse particles, and a finer layer designed to target more delicate particles. Notably, the device eliminates volatile organic compounds (VOCs) emitted by common sources such as household cleaning agents, cleaning solutions, and cigarette smoke. These compounds, recognized for their potential to cause long-term health issues including cancer, are efficiently filtered out by the Airee air purifier.
