The efficiency of
nitrogen dioxide
(NO2) removal can
reach 99,5%*
* Measured by ASTM6646 international standards. Efficiency
reaches 99,5% within 4,8 seconds of contact time with the
media bed (FAM filter). ** The performance varies depending
on the room size, environment and usage and it may take
several hours to reach the full effect. BION air pollutant filter
is not medical device, local regulations on building design
must be followed. Test results conducted under controlled
laboratory conditions. Performance of BION air pollutant
filter might differ in real life environment.

The BION air pollutant filter is an ideal solution for improving indoor air quality in urban areas.
Air pollution in urban areas in Europe
It is reported that in 2021, a significant portion of the
Europe’s urban population has been exposed to high levels
of key air pollutants*.
· 75% of the urban population was exposed to NO2
concentrations above 10 µg/m³
· 94% were exposed to concentrations of O3 above 60 µg/m³
NO2 (WHO guidelines).

* The “Europe’s Air Quality Status 2023” report (EEA, 2023) assesses levels of air pollutants
measured in ambient air across Europe (> 2 000 locations) for the years 2021 and 2022. It
compares them against both EU standards as set out in the Ambient Air Quality Directives and the
2021 WHO Air Quality Guidelines.
Share of the Europe’s urban population exposed to air pollutant concentrations above EU
standards and WHO guidelines in 2021, as referenced in the EEA 2023.
Why outdoor air pollution matters to IAQ?
Poor indoor air quality is associated with outdoor air
pollutants such as car exhaust and factory fumes, and the
two are closely linked. A significant portion of human
exposure to air pollution occurs when they are indoors.
Different objectives, different IAQ solutions
In today’s world, we are concerned about wellbeing and the air we breathe. And technology exists to ensure improved
indoor air quality. With the introduction of the new BION air pollutant filter, Panasonic offers IAQ solutions optimized for
various target objectives.
