The history behind the creation of Airfree ® is fairly unique. Its technology was developed by the initiative and creativity of a caring father in the attempt to fi nd an effective response to the relief of the allergy symptoms of his son caused by mold and dust mite allergens. The caring father was in fact an inventor with many published patents, all still in use. It took less than two years from the initial patented idea to the fi rst prototype of Airfree ® based on a natural way to destroy airborne allergens simply using heat.

After successful tests at home, independent tests were hired with international laboratories to confi rm the effectiveness of the new technology the results being so impressive that the idea of producing large-scale devices, so more families in the world could enjoy the benefi ts of such a simple, natural and effective concept, quickly developed creating the start up of Airfree Products as a multinational corporation.

Airfree Products is a privately owned company based in Lisbon, Portugal. Five different factories in Europe guarantee the growing demand, the quality, and the timely delivery of Airfree ® products.
