New Innovation Set to Revolutionise Spray Technology - Used to Protect Against the Scottish Biting Midge & Help Fight MRSA in the NHS

Oxford, UK (PRWEB) October 3, 2008 -- Atrium Innovation Ltd has developed a new spray technology that uses no propellants or heat. The technology is so flexible the liquid dispensed can be almost anything. From spraying a natural insect repellent that helps protect a room from mosquitoes and midges to a safe sanitiser that could kill bacteria in the air. The technology has been commercialised in the form of an air purifier called Cleanaer? and is endorsed by Allergy UK for helping to remove house dust mite and cat allergen from the air. Test show that once removed, particles are suppressed, preventing them from re-circulating.

Atrium formed a partnership with the University of Aberdeen and Rothamsted Research, who, having discovered why midges bite some people and not others, developed a more effective midge repellent naturally produced by humans. When looking for an efficient spray technology to release the repellent into the air, Prof. Jenny Mordue (Aberdeen) and Dr James Logan (Rothamsted), chose Atrium Innovation's technology.

Prof. Mordue said "We use Atrium's innovative technology as it was the only spray technology that could successfully release our natural active ingredients in a controlled and consistent manner to treat and protect a space. The technology is unique in the way that it doesn't need propellants or heat to disperse liquid and this was critical in our choice of teaming up with Atrium for these trials."

The development as a premium spray technology started 7 years ago in a shed in Oxford. The first commercial product "Solo" was released in 2003 and is still sold today by Cannon Hygiene. The latest product Cleanaer? is an air purifier and available on-line Cleanaer Website (http://www.cleanaer.com), or through major retailers, Boots the Chemist, John Lewis and Lakeland. Other products for pest control of mosquitoes and sanitisation for MRSA are already in Atrium's development pipeline.

Atrium's CEO Alan EJ Jones commented "Our technology is incredible. Our goal is for it to be "the" spray technology of choice for all quality liquids. Our air purifier Cleanaer? is proving highly successful. It not only removes particles from the air but also suppresses them to prevent them re-circulating. We have started initial tests on killing bacteria and hope to move to trials against MRSA in the coming months." When asked about the effects of the product against mosquitoes and flies, Alan concluded "Nobody likes getting bitten by mosquitoes, but for some people it can mean life or death. We are working on various forms of repellants to protect against these insects. The beauty of our technology is it so efficient it uses less of any chemical or fluid than any other device, yet achieves faster results."
