V-Air® SOLID, an environmentally friendly non-aerosol air freshener from Vectair Systems, has won the ‘Best Innovation Award’ in the Washroom Hygiene category in the 2016 Clean India Awards.

A panel of eight judges, including Purchasing Director of Reliance Industries & Executive Housekeeper of the Intercontinental Hotels Group, chose V-Air® SOLID as the most innovative product for its simplicity, use of new technology and its strong environmental credentials, amongst other factors. The award entry consisted of a written entry and then a presentation to four of the judges at the Clean India Exhibition in Mumbai.

This is the fourth international award that V-Air® SOLID has won since its launch a year ago, having already won an International Green Apple Environment Award, the Cleaning Show Innovation Award in the Washroom Hygiene category (UK), and a Sanitary Maintenance Distributor Choice Award (USA).

The Clean India Awards prides itself on being the most prestigious awards for the Indian Cleaning Industry. It accolades companies and innovators for their trend setting products or solutions which can make a difference to the evolving Indian Cleaning Industry.

The changing cleaning demands call for new technology, adaptability to local conditions, cost effectiveness, environment friendliness, easy usability, optimum productivity and versatility.

V-Air® SOLID air freshener

V-Air® SOLID is a unique non-aerosol air freshener incorporating multi-phasing, sub-micron fragrance technology. It is VOC exempt and 100% organic and biodegradable. The complete system contains no batteries in either the refill or the dispenser, which means the dispenser is fully recyclable. V-Air® SOLID is designed so that it does not need any external power source, and it doesn’t rely on gravity – all it needs to work is natural airflow.

It contains no liquids so won’t spill or leak in transport, and it is unaffected by climatic conditions which is a common cause of passive cartridges failing. All of this means that V-Air® SOLID is not hazardous for transport and unlike aerosols or hazardous items, has no disposal issues after use – it can be placed in normal waste.
