Get a Big Green Thumbs-up from the China Indoor Environment Monitoring Committee
2012 Indoor Environmental Protection Industry Top 10 News Award
Panasonic's air purifiers have received great commendations from the China Indoor Environment Monitoring Committee winning the following 2 awards: 2012 Indoor Environmental Protection Industry Top 10 News Award and 2012 China Indoor Environmental Protection Industry New Recommended Product Award.
There is growing concern about PM2.5 air pollution(*1) in China. Panasonic has introduced products that boast impressive removal rate of PM2.5 particles to help address these concerns. In recognition of its efforts, it has been awarded the 2012 Indoor Environmental Protection Industry Top 10 News Award. The second award has been given to Panasonic's air purifier, "F-VX50C," for its excellent capacity to remove PM2.5 particles from the air and energy-saving performance brought to life by the ECO NAVI technology.
It was in 2004 that Panasonic began selling air purifiers in China. By 2012, Panasonic's air purifier line-up consisted of 7 models, which are all very highly appraised. Panasonic will continue to help improve air quality with IAQ(*2) products such as air purifiers.
(*1) PM2.5 refers to particles that are less than 2.5 micrometers in diameter. It is believed that these fine particles cause health problems such as asthma and bronchitis. Pollution from particulate matter in the air is becoming increasingly serious in Beijing and many other cities in China.
(*2) IAQ: Indoor Air Quality.
