Real-time protection for veterinarians, pets, and staff from airborne viruses, pathogens, and allergens.

Protecting Our Loyal Companions

Nowhere is the quality of indoor air more important than in medical spaces where our vulnerable loved ones’ health is at stake. Veterinary clinics can face poor indoor air quality due to urban air pollution, surgical gases, and particulate matter, making it vital that these facilities remain safe, welcoming spaces for pet owners and visitors. Keeping the air in veterinary practices hygienically clean is also crucial not only for the health and safety our furry friends, but also their caregivers.

Veterinary Practices 1

Good veterinary care requires clean indoor air.

Infection control policies in veterinary clinics can often be overlooked1 but there are far more harmful contaminants than just pet dander lurking in the indoor air.

75%

Of the 175 species of pathogens classified as emerging, 132 (75%) are zoonotic and have been associated with diseases including severe acute respiratory syndrome (SARS) and avian influenza, which have emerged on a global scale2.

250,000

Veterinarians are amongst the more than 250,000 healthcare workers in the US who may be exposed to waste anaesthetic gases, putting them at risk of adverse health effects and certain cancers.3

39%

The percentage of Canadian veterinarians who reported developing an allergy during their career — the most common triggers being hair, fur, dander, and exposure to specific animal species.4

Reduce pet
odors

Given the variety and number of patients they house and treat, odor control can be a challenge for veterinary practices. VIRUSKILLER™ efficiently neutralizes unpleasant pet odors, leaving fresh, clean air for veterinarians, pets, and staff.

Veterinary Practices 3

Neutralize
surgical gases

Without proper ventilation, veterinary operating rooms can suffer from air polluted with harmful VOCs and anaesthetic gases. VIRUSKILLER™’s premium activated carbon filters safely neutralize harmful gases in a single air pass.

Indoor air
safety

The close quarters environment of veterinary practices means airborne pathogens can spread quickly. VIRUSKILLER™ safely decontaminates indoor air, providing real-time protection for visitors and staff.

Veterinary Practices 5

Respiratory
relief

Outdoor air pollution can pose a challenge to veterinary clinics in urban areas, and pollen and animal dander can cause allergies in visitors and staff. VIRSUKILLER™ safely neutralizes gases and filters particulate matter, protecting those with respiratory conditions.
