What Is Formaldehyde & VOC?
Formaldehyde is a well-known carcinogen that can irritate the eyes, nose, and throat. It is commonly produced during the manufacturing of mineral wool and pressed boards, and its foul scent can often be detected in premises after renovation. This applies to both residential and commercial units, where we provide most of our services.
Test data shows that activated carbon filters are a good helper for removing formaldehyde from the air . However, in rooms (and/or items) with high formaldehyde content, it may take 2-3 years to consume all the formaldehyde.
HOW FORMALDEHYDE & VOC AFFECT YOU
Exposure to formaldehyde can cause irritation of the eyes, nose, and throat. Although rare, it may also cause occupational asthma. Animal studies have shown that inhaling formaldehyde can damage the lining of the nose and throat.
Long-term exposure to formaldehyde can cause airway inflammation, respiratory and asthma symptoms, and increased allergic sensitivity.

2 - Cook Up Or Heat Treatment
Formaldehyde is more volatile under higher temperatures and humid conditions. Hence, heating up a room that has high-formaldehyde readings, will reduce formaldehyde levels. It is scientifically proven that Formaldehyde and VOCs reach an efficacy removal up to 75% with temperatures of 45℃ in 6 hours, thus reducing the emissions of those gasses to the levels approved by government agencies. The same study states that higher temperatures will increase the removal rate.
2.1 - Home/Office Cook Up Treatment
How does it work
- The room temperature is raised to 55℃ for 6 hours with our state of the art equipment.
- Activated carbon filters are installed
- Formaldehyde “steams” faster into the air and gets removed from the treated surfaces.
- The air is filtered with our activated carbon forced air filters and it gets eliminated.
- When finalizing the baking, opening of windows/doors/ventilation and application of photo-catalithyc Titanium Oxide Spray using Ultra-Light Volume fog that will coat all areas of the premise to eliminate the remaining (if any) of VOC gasses.
