Can Air Curtains keep out odours?

Air Curtains can help to reduce the penetration of unpleasant odours into an indoor space, but they are not a complete solution for combating odours. They create an airflow that acts as a barrier and minimises the exchange of air between the interior and exterior. This makes it more difficult for external odours to penetrate or escape to the outside, for example from waste, traffic or agricultural activities. However, Air Curtains cannot neutralise odours already present in the room.

Effective shielding of odours

However, Air Curtains are used effectively in the waste management industry to combat odour emissions from recycling areas. By maintaining a barrier against the outside air, they help to keep unpleasant odours indoors and improve air quality.

Our Induvent Air Curtain has proven its effectiveness in minimising odour emissions through TÜV certification and offers operators a lean and equally effective alternative to a conventional airlock.
