Amway Atmosphere Sky™ Air Treatment System Certified Allergy-Friendly

New generation of Atmosphere™ units receives Seal of Quality from European Allergy Research Foundation

Ada, Mich. (March 20, 2018) – The Atmosphere Sky™ air treatment system from Amway has been certified as an allergy-friendly product after meeting the strict testing criteria of the European Centre for Allergy Research Foundation (ECARF).

Atmosphere Sky™ air treatment system will now carry the prestigious ECARF Seal of Quality, signifying that it underwent thorough scientific testing by an accredited, third-party laboratory. It met the standards created by ECARF’s leading international scientists and technicians for particle reduction, noise, odor and temperature, and is adapted to the needs of allergy sufferers. The standards are regularly updated to reflect the latest scientific research.

According to Bernd Janning, ECARF communications manager, “The ECARF Seal certifies products and services that can bring some of the joy back into the lives of people with allergies. Thousands of products and services have been certified since the first seal was granted in 2006.”

“We are honored to receive the ECARF certification for Atmosphere Sky™ air treatment system,” said Mark Nelson, director of Global Home Brands for Amway. “Amway has improved indoor air quality for more than three million people around the globe, and the certification demonstrates our continued leadership and expertise.”

Amway announced Atmosphere Sky™ air treatment system in 2017. It is the company’s latest generation of home air treatment offerings, improving upon the original Atmosphere™ Air Treatment System, which in 2016 was the world’s largest selling home air treatment product.*

“Amway continually studies global indoor air quality and user experience trends to drive product development,” said Austin Teerman, Amway air filtration engineer. “The Atmosphere Sky™ Air Treatment System leverages our expertise to provide an innovative solution that is connected, convenient and controlled.”

Using its state of the art Inteliflow technology, the Atmosphere Sky™ unit’s HEPA-based filter** effectively removes 99.99% of particles as small as .007 microns as they pass through the filter. It is fast, quiet and effective – all while maintaining high energy efficiency with low power consumption. The Clean Air Delivery Rate (CADR) is no less than 300 at speed 5 – perfect for cleaning the air in rooms up to 43.5 m2 (465 sq.ft.) in size.

Atmosphere Sky™ air treatment system is the first Amway product to feature Internet of Things (IoT) program capabilities. There is a companion app for smartphones allowing users to control the unit from anywhere. The app has multiple features, such as the ability to adjust settings, order filters and monitor indoor air quality.

This is the first time Amway has applied for the ECARF certification, as it’s the first Amway air treatment product to be sold in Europe. In addition to ECARF, Atmosphere Sky™ air treatment system also earned the Allergy UK Seal of Approval, acknowledging its ability to reduce or remove allergens from air passing through the unit’s filter and its suitability for use by people with allergies. It is also ENERGY STAR® certified, and has been third-party certified by the Association of Home Appliance Manufacturers® (AHAM)®.

The Atmosphere Sky™ Air Treatment System is sold exclusively by Amway Business Owners.
