4.8 trillion OH radicals per seconds
Effectively inhibit bacteria and viruses
nanoe™ and nanoe™ X are capsules of water containing an abundance of OH radicals. Nano-sized capsules of water enveloping large amounts of OH radicals are released en masse into the air. The more OH radicals there are, the more effectively bacteria*12~14 and viruses*15~17 can be inhibited.
The 7 Characteristics and Effects of nanoe™ & nanoe™ X
nanoe™ and nanoe™ X effectively eliminating odours, as well as inhibiting bacteria & viruses, mould and allergens.
Select characteristic below to discover more
Eliminates Frequently Encountered Odours
nanoe™ and nanoe™ X particles, which are smaller than steam particles, penetrate the deepest parts of fibers, allowing for highly effective deodorisation.*1~11 OH radicals reach the sources of the odours themselves and suppress them until they are barely noticeable.
How it works
1. nanoe™/nanoe™ X reliably
reaches odours embedded in fibres.
2. OH radicals break down odour
causing substances.
3. Odour is eliminated.*1~11

3. Allergen is inhibited.*22~23
Effects: Inhibits pet-derived allergens and major allergens
Inhibits Pollens Globally All Year Around
nanoe™ and nanoe™ X is effective in inhibiting*24 a variety of pollens globally all year around. The inhibition effect has been confirmed for the 13 varieties shown below, including those found in Europe and North America.
How it works
1. nanoe™/nanoe™ X reliably
reaches pollen.
2. OH radicals denature pollen proteins.
3. Pollen is inhibited.*24
Types of Pollen that nanoe™ and nanoe™ X can Inhibit
Breakdown of Hazardous Substances
Breakdown effect of aromatic carboxylic acid (benzoic acid) and paraffin (hexadecane), harmful substances known to be found in PM2.5, have been verified.*25~26
How it works
1. nanoe™/nanoe™ X reliably
reaches hazardous substance.
2. OH radicals denature hazardous
substance proteins .
3. Hazardous substance is
inhibited.*25~26
Effects: Inhibit hazardous substance
Moisturised Skin, Straighter & Sleeker hair
nanoe™/nanoe™ X combines with natural sebum to coat the skin, leading to smooth, well-hydrated skin.*27~30 Furthermore, the abundant moisture found in nanoe™/nanoe™ X hydrates the hair, contributing to straighter, sleeker hair.*31~32
Effects: Smooth and well-hydrated hair & skin
