addition for any space because of its compact size and sleek looks. It catches fine dust particles and has a powerful suction system. The streamer unit, which uses highpowered plasma discharge technology, decomposes harmful substances* within the unit. These contaminants are either trapped on the HEPA filter or adsorb to the deodorising filter element. 2. The Active Plasma Ion generation unit purifies the space further by adding purifying elements to the cleaned air. These could help to deodorise odorous curtains and carpets, for example.

Design Middle East also spoke to Tuna Gulenc, vice president of Daikin Middle East & Africa, as he discussed the emphasis on indoor air quality and why clean air is more important now than ever before. Air pollution is a severe environmental problem with a determinantal impact on human health. Each year, seven million lives are lost due to air pollution, while a sizeable number of children around the world experience stunted development. In a research conducted in 2020, scientists found that air pollution is a leading cause of death, accounting for more loss of life than smoking, malaria, and HIV/AIDs. Associated with an increase in cardiovascular diseases, such as heart attacks and strokes, as well as acute and chronic respiratory related illnesses such as asthma, figures from the World Health Organization (WHO) suggest that 43% of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) cases and deaths, 29% of all lung cancer cases and deaths and 19% of cardiovascular deaths are caused by air pollution. Those over the age of 60 are most at risk. According to the WHO, today, 99% of the global population is breathing in unhealthy levels of polluted air, with people in low and middle-income countries suffering the highest levels of exposure. The phenomenon of air pollution is especially important in the GCC region, predominantly caused by the combustion of fossil fuels such as carbon emissions from the burning of coal, non-electric vehicles, and factories. In a catch-22, these emissions not only cause air pollution but exacerbate climate change. This leads to even poorer air quality with rising temperatures leading to phenomena such as smog and pollen. It is not, however, only the air outdoor that is contaminated with pollutants. Indoor phenomena such as dust and mould, building material, cleaning products and poor ventilation can all WWW.CBNME.COM
