Dobrich Hospital is a public medical facility in Dobrich city centre, Bulgaria. Following installation of the Airius PureAir system in their Orthopaedic, Surgical and ER departments in 2020 the hospital were eager to explore further high-risk infection areas, including ambulance vehicles.
Ambulances are a common source of contamination for hospitals. In an effort to reduce the risk of infections introduced to the hospital from ambulances, in particular the SARS-CoV-2 virus, Airius worked with Dobrich Hospital to supply an effective vehicular air and surface purification solution.
The Airius NPBITM system from GPS was specified and installed into a pre-contaminated ambulance for testing. Within 20 minutes of the NPBITM system being activated airborne particulate matter had reduced by 98%.
Start of Test 397 μg/m3 – PM1.0 523 μg/m3 – PM2.5 606 μg/m3 – PM10
After 20 Minutes008 μg/m3 – PM1.0011 μg/m3 – PM2.5012 μg/m3 – PM10
The hospital was extremely impressed with the results and have since installed the Airius NPBITM system throughout their entire fleet of ambulance vehicles.
“We purposely planted microorganisms in one of our ambulances. We re-examined the contaminated areas after a week of normal operating conditions [with NPBI] and they came out completely sterile.” Dr. Georgi ZhelyazkovDobrich Hospital Head Manager

The Airius PureAir NPBITM Series is an air and surface purification and airflow circulation fan system, designed to deliver the highest level of pathogen, particle and odour elimination in any type of indoor commercial or community environment.
Featuring the latest in Needlepoint BiPolar Ionisation (NPBITM) technology from one of the world’s leading manufacturers of indoor air quality systems – Global Plasma Solutions, the PureAir+ Series uses the power of ions to provide continuous round-the-clock sterilisation, neutralising up to 99%+ of all known pathogens, VOCs and odours, in both the air and on surfaces
The PureAir NPBITM also provides all the features and benefits of the world’s most popular destratification and airflow circulation fan, balancing temperatures, improving comfort, reducing heating and cooling costs and cutting carbon emissions.
The PureAir NPBITM Series integrated GPS NPBITM system emits a high concentration of positive (+) and negative (-) ions, which are circulated into spaces via the fan
The polarity of the ions attracts them to all particles within the space, causing the particles to cluster together and make them filterable. They also bond with and neutralise pathogens, VOCs and odours by removing them of a hydrogen atom, breaking them down into their basic, harmless and odourless compounds, such as O2, CO2, N2 and H2O.
Multiple studies have been conducted on the NPBITM technology integrated into the Airius PureAir+ Series range, supporting the efficacy and effectiveness of NPBITM systems for pathogen neutralisation, particle reduction and odour elimination.

Airius fans are commonly used to purify air and balance temperatures for both heating and cooling applications in a wide variety of environments – from offices to aircraft hangars.
Adding an Airius PureAir NPBITM Series air purification, infection and odour control ventilation fan is a simple way to continually clean your air and surfaces, creating a safer and healthier environment for you, your staff and your building.
