8 Must Have Features For Your Commercial Odour Control System
September 21, 2021
The way our space is laid out, the environment in which we work, and the state of it, are important factors in the efficiency of workers and the overall business. Scent is one such prominent factor as it ensures focus, encourages motivation, generates a sense of release and overall creates better wellbeing.
At PuraAir, ensuring that your indoor space has clean and fresh air is important to us. Here, we create state-of-the-art commercial odour control systems, designed and engineered specifically for neutralising odours and our UVC SERIES 1000 Commercial Odour Control.
These system uses modern technology to filter the air in your commercial space, which not only helps control odours but also controls the levels of bacteria, viruses and mould spores in the air; helping you guarantee cleaner air for your employees and patrons. With over twenty years of combined experience designing air sanitation and scenting solutions, PuraAir
is proud to offer our clients the best performing odour control systems, delivered with exceptional integrity and expertise.
Odour control system
works to eliminate undesired smells and odours in spaces, by destroying bacteria and viruses via the utilisation of ultraviolet rays, UVC germicidal lamp and UV Lamp ozone generating technologies. Odour control technologies are usually used commercially as they’re designed to eliminate mass quantities of odours such as in high-rise apartment garbage chutes, garbage compactor systems, garbage bin collection areas, grease trap rooms, wastewater rooms, wet food waste areas or for any customised use of the application.
Some of the main benefits of odour control systems include general air sanitisation and the destruction of bacteria, viruses and mould that cause smells as the systems physically, chemically or biologically suppress unpleasant odours from said plants. The air sanitation process can also be done through the advanced process of Ozone produced by UV light waves. This disperses the high flow of air to spaces that need to be treated, keeping the areas under efficient odour control. Australian PuraAir
odour control system is not a masking agent or re-odorization agent, which attempts to replace one odour with another but actually a true odour inhibitor which counteracts and modifies the odour, reducing its intensity or eliminating its odorous effects.
For any business or individual looking to purchase a commercial odour control system, there are some vital features to look out for:
1. Bacteria and virus control
In addition to maintaining an odour-free environment, one void of nasty smells; bacteria and viruses need to control too. This is done through a process called irradiation.
PuraAir’s
air sanitation process filters airborne dust through active carbon filters as it draws in unwanted odours from areas under treatment. These odours then enter the UVC germicidal light chamber where the odour control process begins. The micro-organisms then come in contact with the UVC germicidal light wave, changing their DNA and destroying them and eliminating smell.
This method has been shown in laboratory environments to disrupt the DNA of microorganisms and thus to be able to inactivate viral, bacterial and fungal organisms.
2. Mould and fungal spore control
The ultraviolet germicidal bulb converts electricity into UV radiation and generates that energy in the UV spectrum to destroy bacteria, fungi and viruses.
This works as the UV penetrates the cell and is absorbed by the nucleic acids causing the rearrangement of genetic information which interferes with the cell’s ability to reproduce, therefore halting the cycle and eliminating odours.
3. Chemical-free
Destruction of odours and bacteria and the maintenance of a healthy, clean environment is done through UVC
- at a certain wavelength, distance, and exposure time - with the presence of no chemicals.
4. High flow distribution system
The PuraAir UVC Series 1000
is guaranteed for a continuous, long working life of 9000-12000 hours, keeping your air clean for around 500 days!
5. Low maintenance
The machine is easy to clean and is fitted with a flush key lock and durable hinge system complementing its lightweight compact design. The cabinet door is fitted with a safety switch this provides additional protection for personnel and the machine will switch off if the cabinet door is opened while operating.
The Adaptive Command Control
is adjusted to achieve the correct ozone levels to suit each customised application. This function is available while using the remote-control option or can be adjusted at the time of installation or when servicing the system.
The auxiliary socket provides the option for a remote control allowing easy adjustment to settings. And, the LED Light indicator panel displays the system settings and indicates when the lamps are due for replacement, while the Ozone Source indicates the ozone level currently in operation.
6. High-quality UV lamps
The UVC Series 1000
is proudly backed by twenty years of combined experience and expertise by PuraAir.
7. Energy efficient
The lamps are powered by a Smart digital ballast with a pre-heat function extending the life of these components.
Similarly, the turbine blower combines the High Flow Air Distribution System, which is exclusive to the PuraAir UVC Series and is engineered to manage the cooling of the equipment within the cabinet while eliminating odours and cleaning the air at the same time.
8. Quiet operation
The machine works 24 hours a day, 7 days a week as the UVC light source destroys unwanted air contaminants, and is guaranteed for a continuous, long working life of 9000-12000 hours, keeping your air clean for around 500 days!

As we welcome the New Year, the team at PuraAir would like to extend our warmest wishes to all our valued clients and partners. The start of the year also marks the peak of the summer season, a time when warmer temperatures, increased building occupancy, and higher waste volumes can create unique challenges for odour control and hygiene management. Summer heat accelerates the breakdown of waste, leading to stronger and more persistent odours. It also creates ideal conditions for flies and other pests, particularly in bin rooms, waste chutes, loading docks, and garbage storage areas. Without effective odour control solutions in place, these issues can quickly impact the comfort, health, and overall experience of residents, staff, and visitors. In high-rise residential buildings, these challenges are often intensified during the holiday period. With more people spending time at home, garbage volumes naturally increase, placing additional strain on waste management systems. Communal areas such as lift lobbies, corridors, and waste rooms can be especially affected if odours are not properly managed, leading to resident complaints and unnecessary disruption. This makes the New Year an ideal time to review your odour control and scenting requirements. Ensuring that existing systems are functioning optimally, and that solutions are appropriately scaled for summer conditions, can help prevent issues before they arise. Proactive odour management not only improves air quality but also supports hygiene standards, reduces pest activity, and helps maintain a pleasant living and working environment. At PuraAir, we work closely with building managers, facility teams, and property owners to deliver tailored odour control and scenting solutions that address seasonal demands. From waste room and garbage chute treatment to fly control and ambient scenting in shared spaces, our solutions are designed to perform when conditions are at their most challenging. Start the year with confidence. We encourage you to take this opportunity to assess your current odour control measures and ensure they are ready for the months ahead. Contact Rob Clarke from PuraAir on 1300 972 736 or 0147 714 268 today to schedule a summer readiness review or to discuss tailored solutions for your building. A proactive approach now can help prevent issues later and ensure your spaces remain fresh, hygienic, and welcoming throughout summer and beyond. Browse through our website for more information. We wish you a safe, successful, and refreshing New Year and look forward to supporting you throughout 2026.
