Finish Off Construction Odors
Industrial construction sites and finishing materials can contain chemicals that can linger on their surfaces or escape into the air. These chemicals often produce powerful smells — potentially harmful to workers and a nuisance to neighboring residents and businesses. The experienced engineers have developed a range of odor removing additives to reduce smelly construction emissions within industrial construction site materials without affecting them.

-
Adhesives
-
Asphalt and paving
-
Board panels (fiberglass)
-
Interior finishes
-

Core Philosophy and Goal
The philosophy behind plant-based odour control is to provide a safe, sustainable, and effective alternative to traditional chemical methods by using natural, biodegradable formulations to neutralize odours at the molecular level. The primary goal is to eliminate malodours completely without introducing new toxins or harsh chemicals into the environment.
-
Molecular Neutralization, Not Masking: Unlike masking agents that use strong fragrances to cover up smells, plant-based solutions are designed to chemically react with, absorb, or encapsulate the malodorous compounds, altering their molecular structure to render them odourless.
-
Safety and Health: Prioritizing the well-being of the public, employees, animals, and ecosystems.
Key Action Statements
The key action statement for plant-based odour control is to eliminate malodours at the source by utilizing natural, non-toxic formulations that neutralize and break down odour-causing organic matter and chemical compounds.
-
Source Elimination, Not Masking: Solutions work through multiple mechanisms, including absorption, adsorption, and chemical reactions with malodorous molecules, converting them into non-odorous, non-volatile substances. They do not merely cover up smells with fragrances.
-
Safety and Sustainability: These technologies are non-hazardous, non-toxic, and biodegradable, ensuring safety for employees, communities, and the environment.

How it Works
The fundamental mechanisms involved are adsorption, absorption, gas solubility and reaction. When diluted with water and broadcast via atomization, the tiny water droplets created contain a thin oil skin that creates an electrostatic charge. This charge facilitates adsorption of the malodor molecules onto the droplet surface. The gas is absorbed by the droplet (solubility) and held.
