About
UK-based Plasma Clean was founded by two University of Manchester scientists, to be a research-led manufacturer of air quality products for commercial premises.
Our core business is kitchen ventilation. We’ve a range of products that control grease, smoke and odour. They reduce duct-cleaning costs, prevent fires and resolve odour complaints. Making workforces healthier and happier.
These positive effects, on both businesses and health, led us to developing Indoor Air Quality products outside of the kitchen. In 2016, we started to utilise our technology to vastly improve ventilation systems throughout commercial buildings.
Today, we’re established in a wide variety of sectors; right at the forefront of the fight against COVID-19. Our innovative range of certified, retrofitted and standalone solutions boast a 99% microbial kill rate. Imagine removing the COVID-19 virus, and other harmful microbes from an office, a kitchen, a gym or a dental surgery in just 11 minutes… We’re already there.
And if you’re overseas? We work with international agents who can specify and supply our products worldwide.
History
It’s 2008. Two University of Manchester scientists, Dr David Glover and Professor Christopher Whitehead, set up Plasma Clean to manufacture products that enhance air quality and create a cleaner, safer environment.
We began as a venture capital-backed spin-out company formed to commercialise non-thermal or cold-plasma technology for air treatment. Our odour-control product, Xtract 2100, first hit commercial kitchens in 2008
Today, Plasma Clean operates globally from our Manchester base. We’re an established and trusted pioneer of indoor-air-quality products for all commercial sectors.
