Continuing the Conversation: EcoStatic® and Smarter, Energy-Efficient Air Purification
Back in May, we shared how HEPA filters are vital in hospitals, cleanrooms, and aerospace. But in homes and offices, where air recirculates continuously, HEPA is not always the most practical or energy-efficient solution.
A 2025 study in the Journal of the American College of Cardiology showed that portable air purifiers improved blood pressure and vascular health in people exposed to traffic-related air pollution (Brugge et al., JACC, 2025). While the study used HEPA filters, the principle applies broadly: improving indoor air can deliver measurable health benefits. EcoStatic® provides a biobased, energy-efficient alternative.
Real-world insights from EcoStatic® applications:
– Our partners and clients are actively commercialising EcoStatic® products, drawn by high filtration performance, ultra-low resistance, and high dust-holding. Functional features and biobased credentials complement these performance benefits.
– In home air purifiers and other air-recirculating scenarios, EcoStatic® filters enable high airflow and clean-air delivery, showing that well-designed MERV 11 to 13 media perform effectively.
Why EcoStatic® works in air-recirculating spaces:
1. HEPA Requires Context: HEPA filters provide excellent single-pass efficiency, but higher resistance reduces airflow and slows clean air delivery in homes, offices, and residential HVAC systems.
2. Performance and Efficiency Can Coexist: EcoStatic® media combines high filtration efficiency, high dust holding, and ultra-low resistance, enabling faster air exchange and lower energy use across air purifiers and furnace filters.
3. System-Level Thinking Matters: The effectiveness of any air filtration system depends on the combination of airflow, filter design, and the circulation of air within the space.
HEPA remains essential in critical environments. Our aim is not to replace it, but to offer energy-efficient, high-performing, biobased alternatives that make sense in homes, offices, and other air-recirculating spaces.
