Panasonic tackles Southeast Asia’s haze with innovative air quality solutions
Japanese-headquartered electronics company Panasonic, through Panasonic Malaysia Sdn Bhd , a sales, service and marketing company for the Panasonic brand , is taking a proactive approach to combat Southeast Asia’s recurring haze problem with innovative indoor air quality solutions. In collaboration with the Malaysia-Japan International Institute of Technology (MJIIT), Panasonic has conducted a study to improve air quality in homes and businesses during the haze season.
Haze, primarily caused by forest fires, agricultural burning, and industrial emissions, is a major issue in Southeast Asia, affecting health, the economy, and the environment. Among the harmful pollutants found in haze are polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs), which pose serious health risks, including respiratory illnesses and cardiovascular diseases.
Panasonic’s nanoe X technology was shown to significantly reduce the presence of these dangerous PAH compounds in indoor environments. Ichiro Suganuma, Managing Director of QAFL Business Promotion Center at Panasonic, emphasized the company’s commitment to developing innovative solutions that enhance health and well-being.
This breakthrough offers a promising solution for improving indoor air quality and safeguarding public health during haze events.
