Odour Elimination Success: Seaweed Laboratory Case Study - Perth, Western Australia

At AMTG, our mission is to bring products to market that enhance health and provide the highest levels of protection. That’s why we are proud to represent the UK-manufactured AIRsteril range—an advanced air sanitation solution proven to eliminate airborne and surface-level bacteria, viruses, mould, and unpleasant odours. Learn how it works here.

The Challenge: Persistent Odours Impacting Health and Safety

One of Perth's seaweed laboratories faced a significant occupational health and safety issue due to persistent odours generated by their research processes. These unpleasant smells circulated through the shared air-conditioning system, spreading into hallways, offices, and other laboratories. Staff reported symptoms such as:

  • Teary eyes

  • Scratchy throats

  • Stuffy noses

  • Sneezing

  • Allergic reactions

The odours were not just a nuisance but a genuine health concern affecting the well-being and productivity of everyone in the building.

The Trial: Deploying the AIRSteril MP100

AMTG stepped in with the AIRSteril MP100—an advanced air-sanitizing unit designed to deliver a deep clean without manual intervention. The MP100 was set to operate overnight for five consecutive days, targeting odour elimination and air sanitization.

The results were immediate and dramatic: the MP100 completely eradicated the odours, restoring clean, breathable air to the workspace.

The Solution: Permanent Installation of AIRSteril MF80 Units

Impressed by the results, the laboratory purchased three MF80 units from AMTG, which now operate continuously, 24/7. These units maintain air purity and odour elimination across the entire laboratory and surrounding areas. Since installation, there have been no further issues, and the improvement in air quality is both noticeable and lasting.
