As several parts of northern India grapple with fog and pollution, we have seen both a spike in demand for air purifiers and a spate of product launches to keep pace. Falling air quality indices (AQI) and fears of a renewed lockdown is just the sort of scenario that companies were waiting to cash in on. The latest to join the bandwagon is Kent, which has brought the Alps+ UV air purifier to the market.
As the name suggests, this new product from Kent works on UV-LED technology to remove pollutants from the air and make it healthy to breathe. It features advanced HEPA technology that is said to come with an anti-bacterial coating. The air purifier claims to filter out large particles of impurities in the air, odour, viruses, and bacteria.
