Next-Gen Purification.
PCO + HEPA = Clean Air and Surfaces
What is our Next-Generation PCO Technology?
Photocatalytic Oxidation (PCO) uses a light-powered chemical process to generate ions that break down pollutants mid-air and on exposed surfaces. These PCO ions are safe for people, pets and plants. They are scientifically proven to deactivate mold spores, bacteria, viruses and other fungal allergens.
Our PCO purifier sends out a continuous army of ions that clean air and surface pollutants. It can get to those hard-to-reach places that other purification technologies simply can’t. Instead of relying only on filtering airborne pollutants, Puraclenz sends out ions to actively break down pollutants outside of the purifier. Conventional air purifiers have no impact on surface pollutants because they can’t be moved through the air and removed by filtration.
Our patented Recharge Cell™ inside each purifier is uniquely designed with turbine-like fins that maximize ions released into the air. Puraclenz’s PCO technology enables our purifiers to create a much higher density of ozone-free ions compared to other PCO reactors.
What makes our latest Core™ Technology, which combines PCO + HEPA, so unique?
Puraclenz’s latest purifier Core™ uses a combination of five different technologies to purify the air and exposed surfaces. Each technology targets specific pathogens and pollutants in the environment, while generating zero ozone therefore being safe for people, pets and plants to use.
Pre-Filter is the outermost layer of the filter assembly that screens out large pet hair and dust particles.
True HEPA Filter with H13 rating traps 99.97% of dust, pollen, pet dander, allergens, bacteria and mold. Filtering particles down to 0.3 microns – that’s 166 times smaller than a human hair!
Activated Carbon Filter with 250 grams of carbon to absorb Odors and Volatile Organic Compounds. To compare, other filters typically use 50 grams of carbon that rapidly fills up and is no longer effective.
Germicidal UV-C Lamp deactivates the DNA of bacteria, viruses and other pathogens that cling to and pass through the filter. Exposure to UV-C light destroys these pathogen’s ability to multiply and cause illness.
Patented Next-Gen PCO Purification produces ions that proactively destroy harmful pathogens mid-air and on exposed surfaces. Our purifier produces an extraordinary amount of ions that effectively disinfects where they touch.
In short, what makes it so unique? Puraclenz Core™ combines best-in-class filtration with proactive ionization to remove the widest range of pollutants from air and surfaces. Puraclenz Core™ is an all-in-one solution providing whole house, single or multi-room 24/7 defense against harmful pollutants and pathogens.
PCO purification proactively deactivates over 95% of spores mid-air and over 99% of spores on exposed surfaces.* This effectiveness is based on the extraordinarily high ion concentration produced by our patented PCO process.
* 95.1% effective at reducing dangerous mold Aspergillus brasiliensis in the air. Aspergillus brasiliensis is a black mold endospore that causes allergic reactions and is surrogate for Toxic Black Mold, Dark Grey Mold and other species of allergy causing molds.
99.75% effective at reducing Candida albicans mold spores from surfaces. Plates with the live Candida albicans mold spores were placed over 8 feet away from the device during this 8-hour test following EN 17272 standards.

Puraclenz Continuously Cleans Air and Surfaces 24/7.
PCO technology has been used to purify air and exposed surfaces for more than 40 years in numerous commercial applications. Puraclenz advanced the power of PCO technology with our patented cell design. Puraclenz generates an exceptionally high density of ozone-free ions to deactivate indoor pollutants without producing any harmful byproducts.
Using air as a medium to deliver ions allows Puraclenz to clean pollutants exposed to the air and hard-to-reach exposed surfaces missed by hand-cleaning.
For example, when someone coughs or sneezes in a room being treated with conventional air purifiers, such as HEPA filters, micro-organisms must move through the space back to the fan unit, where they are collected by a filter.
Because Puraclenz doesn’t require circulation through a filter, it’s able to deactivate pathogens mid-air next to people in the room.

Puraclenz PCO Technology vs. Other Air Purification Solutions
Most other solutions are passive devices that pull air from an indoor space into their purifier, pass it through a filter or purification technology, and then push the treated air back into the same indoor space. These systems only treat the air they pull into their device. They are usually much less energy efficient, require expensive filters to be changed regularly, and do not clean surfaces. Some of these systems also create ozone.
In contrast, Puraclenz dynamically deactivates pathogens mid-air and on exposed surfaces. Puraclenz cleans throughout a typical indoor space, reducing the chance that viruses reach other people or settle on surfaces.
Go Beyond Collecting Particles in a Filter.
A conventional HEPA system:
- Cleans air inefficiently by pulling particles through the air into its filter.
- Collects pathogens but does not destroy them.
- Works slowly, taking up to an hour to clean all of the air in a space. As a result, it may not catch pollutants before inhalation or settling on surfaces.
- Cleans only air, instead of both air and surfaces.
- Filters 99.97% of pathogens as small as 0.3 microns but doesn’t filter viruses and bacteria that are two to ten times smaller.
- Uses filters that need to be changed every 3-6 months, which is time consuming and expensive.
- Consumes a high amount of power to operate.
Scientifically Proven Technology.
Puraclenz products use an evolved form of photocatalytic oxidation (PCO) previously used to provide clean air for astronauts in the International Space Station. Our science-backed technology is proven by third party laboratory tests.
