Philips Multi-Function Air Purifier With Heater Launched In India

Well known consumer electronics company, Philips, has expanded its 2000 series air purifier line-up in India with the addition of its latest multi-functional air purifier boasting a three-layer HEPA filtration system in India. The system promises to eliminate up to 99.95 percent of particles as small as 0.003µm.

WHO (World Health Organization) states that about seven million people die globally every year from air pollution. Also, life expectancy has taken a major hit due to the rising air pollution levels. India is now considered the second most polluted country in the world. The air quality in cities like Delhi takes the worst hit during winters due to industrial pollution and crop burning. Hence, companies like Philips, Dyson, Mi etc. are churning out air purifiers more than ever, intending to provide fresh air to Indians.
