[Asia Economy Reporter Hyunseok Yoo] Esmac announced on the 2nd that the ‘Spatial Sterilization Purifier’ from Cleanairs, a KAIST (Korea Advanced Institute of Science and Technology) startup, has been supplied to Daejeon Shinsegae Department Store.


Esmac exclusively manufactures Cleanairs’ spatial sterilization purifier under consignment. According to the company, department stores, hotels, indoor golf practice ranges, and indoor sports facilities are expected to be the primary potential customers. In addition to Shinsegae Department Store, supply contracts with domestic automobile companies and indoor screen golf course operators are also imminent.


A company official stated, “Demand for spatial sterilization purifiers is expected to increase explosively ahead of the With Corona phase,” adding, “Pre-orders are already flooding in from large corporations following technology verification and comparative evaluation with other companies’ products.”


Cleanairs’ spatial sterilization purifier uses a world-first developed safe proprietary patented technology that completely decomposes and sterilizes the coronavirus and other germs through a seven-step process. It operates on the principle of removing ribonucleic acid (RNA) viruses, not only the COVID-19 virus but also the Delta variant, providing the same sterilization effect.


It also removes large dust particles, dust, viruses, bacteria, mold, fine dust, ultrafine dust, and odor substances, serving both sterilization and air purification functions simultaneously.


The company explained that the spatial sterilization purifier rapidly processes COVID-19 and Delta variant viruses using plasma technology, maintaining the installation site in a sterilized and purified state in real time. It added that it is also effective in spaces with high foot traffic or frequent environmental changes.


Ozone (O3) generated by conventional plasma sterilization methods has strong sterilizing power but is fatal to the human body when inhaled for long periods or at high concentrations. Therefore, ozone removal technology is essential.



Cleanairs has secured the world’s first patented technology related to ozone generation and removal devices for safe use. It is currently undergoing Class 2 certification procedures from the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA).
