TakeAir is dedicated to scientific research and innovation

Founded in 2016, TakeAir started with the research of beneficial organisms in ventilation ducts.

After years of extensive lab testing, we enrolled in research projects where our developed Biospheric Air Treatment system was implemented in operational environments and monitored closely. We focused on commercial real estate to obtain empirical data. This resulted in very valuable data and insights, confirmed the positive effects of augmenting the indoor microbial balance.
