Utilizing Coway Noble Air Purifiers

[Asia Economy Reporter Kim Cheol-hyun] Coway (CEO Seo Jang-won) announced on the 22nd that it conducted a 'Hospital Air Quality Diagnosis and Evaluation Project' in collaboration with Chung-Ang University Gwangmyeong Hospital.

This project was planned to understand the indoor air quality status of Chung-Ang University Gwangmyeong Hospital, which opened in March last year, and to verify the air quality improvement effect after installing air purifiers.

The product used in the project is the Noble air purifier. The Noble air purifier features a design that has won the world's top three design awards and technology that allows the air direction to be changed as desired.

Coway measured air quality before and after installing air purifiers over approximately five weeks from November 16 to December 21 last year at seven locations, including the first-floor lobby and the respiratory center waiting room of Chung-Ang University Gwangmyeong Hospital.

The measurement results showed that most indoor air quality management items, such as fine dust, ultrafine dust, airborne bacteria, mold, and formaldehyde, improved compared to before the air purifier installation. In particular, fine dust and ultrafine dust were reduced by about 41%.

A Coway official said, "Based on this project, we have proven that using air purifiers is effective in managing indoor air quality within hospitals," adding, "We will continue to take responsibility as a leading domestic water and air company and strive to enable more people to enjoy clean water and air."
