How odor absorber works

In situations where it is necessary to eliminate unpleasant odors, air fresheners and flavors are often used. It should be noted that their use does not solve the problem - they just mask the smell, and more often - just mix with other smells and create an unpleasant atmosphere. Their scent quickly evaporates, and the unpleasant smell comes back.

In place of ineffective fragrances and fresheners came the scent absorber in the room. This device or drug works on the principle of absorption - it absorbs from the air heavy molecules that provoke an unwanted odor, binds them and does not allow them to return to the atmosphere again. These devices can additionally be equipped with the function of aromatization.

Important! Neutralizing odor neutralizers can be used both in living quarters and in other places - in bars with poor ventilation, cellars for removing musty smells, places for smoking, fitting rooms and even grocery stores.
