How Pyure Works
Pyure Technology® harnesses ultraviolet (UV) energy to replicate the natural sanitizing effect of sunlight. By safely generating and dispersing hydroxyls and organic oxidants indoors, Pyure actively purifies air and surfaces, reducing contaminants and maintaining healthier indoor environments.
What Are Hydroxyls and How Do They Work?
Nature's Process Outdoors
Sunlight naturally produces hydroxyls and organic oxidants, which act as powerful airborne sanitizing agents.
- Continuous Production: Atmospheric hydroxyls are formed when the sun’s ultraviolet energy interacts with oxygen and water in the air.
- Rapid Reactions: Hydroxyls react extremely quickly, typically within milliseconds, and never accumulate.
- Broad Chemical Activity: They react with a wide range of chemicals, including volatile organic compounds (VOCs).
- Generation of Organic Oxidants: These reactions create organic oxidants, which are less reactive than hydroxyls but persist longer, continuing the sanitizing effect.
- Air Safety: Together, hydroxyls and organic oxidants decompose natural and man-made pollutants and neutralize pathogens, keeping outdoor air safe to breathe.
This natural process forms the basis for Pyure’s indoor air and surface purification technology.
Indoors with Pyure Dynamic Protection®
Pyure brings the natural sanitizing power of sunlight indoors by generating the same concentrations of hydroxyls and organic oxidants found outdoors.
- Nature-Matched Concentrations: Pyure Technology replicates outdoor hydroxyl and oxidant levels to ensure safe and effective indoor air purification.
- Essential Cleansing Agents: Hydroxyls, the primary natural oxidants in our outdoor environment, provide rapid and broad-spectrum cleansing.
- Indoor Generation: Unlike outdoors, hydroxyls do not naturally exist indoors, as they dissipate within milliseconds when formed by sunlight. Pyure generates them safely within occupied spaces.
- Space-Wide Diffusion: Produced oxidants diffuse from the device, react with VOCs, and cascade throughout the room, maintaining continuous air and surface purification.
By mimicking nature, Pyure creates a healthier, safer indoor environment using the same mechanisms that keep outdoor air clean.
Kills Viruses, like the COVID-19 Virus, Bacteria, Mold, Odors and VOCs in Air and on Surfaces
Pyure harnesses ultraviolet (UV) energy to replicate the natural sanitizing effect of sunlight indoors. It safely generates and disperses hydroxyls and organic oxidants, creating a continuous purification process.
- Hydroxyl Generation: Hydroxyls are produced indoors, mimicking those naturally found outdoors.
- VOC Reaction: Hydroxyls react with volatile organic compounds (VOCs), producing powerful organic oxidants.
- Comprehensive Purification: Together, hydroxyls and organic oxidants neutralize airborne and surface contaminants, helping maintain cleaner, safer indoor environments.
Pyure's Proprietary Technology Has Unique Features That Deliver Unmatched Performance
An Optimal Quantity of Hydroxyls
- The energy spectrum and intensity of ultraviolet radiation
- Design of the hydroxyl generator
A Cascade Effect Outside the Device
- Hydroxyls generate organic oxidants that disperse beyond the device
- Organic oxidants break down VOCs through rapid reactions
- These reactions generate additional organic oxidants
- This chain reaction between organic oxidants and VOCs repeats continuously
The Sanitizing Effect of Organic Oxidants
- Break down proteins, lipids, and other components of cell walls
- This breakdown results in rapid pathogen cell death
Pyure Technology® is Safe and Effective
Airborne hydroxyls are safe and natural sanitizing agents.
Pyure Technology® leverages airborne hydroxyls, which are natural and safe sanitizing agents, to purify indoor air and surfaces. Its safety is supported by multiple factors:
- Natural Concentration Levels: Pyure produces hydroxyls and organic oxidants at the same concentrations naturally found outdoors, ensuring safe exposure indoors.
- Scientific Validation: Extensive scientific literature confirms that environmental levels of hydroxyls and organic oxidants do not pose health risks.
- Independent Lab Studies: A 13-week GLP toxicology study conducted by an independent laboratory confirmed that Pyure’s technology causes no adverse effects, further validating its safety.
This combination of natural concentrations, scientific backing, and independent testing ensures that Pyure delivers effective purification without compromising safety.
Pyure Technology®: Proven Performance in Pathogen Control and Air Quality
Air Purification and Sanitization:
- Kills airborne viruses, bacteria, and mold.
- Neutralizes and decomposes VOCs and other harmful chemicals.
Surface Sanitization:
- Eliminates viruses, bacteria, yeast, and mold on treated surfaces.
- Safe for materials; does not damage surfaces.
Odor Elimination:
- Effectively removes cigarette smoke, chemical odors, and mildew, leaving indoor spaces fresher and healthier.
Pyure Technology® provides comprehensive indoor air and surface purification, combining pathogen control, chemical neutralization, and odor removal for safer, cleaner environments.
Validated Mechanism of Action
Studies conducted at the Lovelace Respiratory Research Institute (LRRI) have demonstrated that Pyure devices generate hydroxyl levels consistent with those naturally found outdoors.
These findings, published in a peer-reviewed journal, validate Pyure’s mechanism of action and confirm that its technology safely replicates nature’s natural sanitizing processes indoors.
