Call for a single european standard to measure efficiency of indoor air cleaners

Stockholm, 3 May, 2012 – The European Commission needs to do more to provide consumers a level playing field on which to make decisions about the efficiency of indoor air cleaners, says the world’s leading indoor air cleaning company, Blueair. The company says lack of a single system means that consumers struggle to compare different air cleaning products that use different systems.

Blueair says that with indoor air in homes and offices reaching levels 100 times worse than the air outside, there is an urgent need for consumers to be given accurate information about indoor air cleaners. Blueair is lobbying the European Commission to adopt the ‘Clean Air Delivery Rate’ system used in the United States.

“The Clean Air Delivery Rate (CADR) system makes it easier for consumers wanting to protect them- selves from polluted indoor air to make informed choices by being able to compare products in a meaningful way,” said Johan Wennerström, Blueair Research and Development Manager.
