The Langham, Melbourne
Australia's First Clean Air Hotel
In the face of a global pandemic and unprecedented national and international border closures, the travel and tourism industry was one of the hardest hit. After enduring two years of lockdowns, the 5-Star Langham in Melbourne became an industry pioneer, as the first Australian hotel to install revolutionary active air purification technology across their guest rooms, restaurants/bars and other key areas.
The Challenge
As a 24 floor, 388 room, 5-star hotel, The Langham Melbourne needed to find a way to combat the highly contagious, airborne SARS-CoV-2 virus and reinstate consumer confidence to travel and stay safely.
With a virus that had already proven it could spread via indoor ventilation systems, despite the presence of traditional air filters (like HEPA), this challenge required a new, more effective solution to ensure guest and staff safety and a return to a “new normal”.

The Solution
Using 2 x RGF® PHI-CML™ Commercial air purification units and 18 x RGF® Guardian Air QR+ units, The Langham Melbourne now offers clean, purified air throughout their guest rooms, guest room corridors, public areas, restaurants/bars and key back-of-house areas, which not only reduces COVID transmission but eliminates mould spores, bacteria, allergens, dust, odours and VOC’s (chemicals) in the air.
Supplied by The Clean Air Company and installed by Pro Air Systems, this patented ACTIVE air purification technology produces low levels of airborne gaseous hydrogen peroxide which is distributed by the HVAC system throughout the air-conditioned space, creating a “seek-and-destroy” air cleaning effect.

Lloyds of London
Lloyds of London, the world’s leading insurance market providing specialist insurance services to businesses in over 200 countries, has installed innovative air purification technology into all of its UK offices so that staff members can return safely to work.Like millions of UK businesses, the firm had been operating remotely since March 2020 as a result of the pandemic, but recognised the importance of making its offices COVID secure with the installation of air purification.
The Challenge
After having their team working remotely since March 2020, Lloyds needed a way to combat COVID-19 transmission to ensure staff could safely return to work in offices. Without active air purification in all indoor spaces, COVID presented a high risk of ongoing transmission causing an unacceptable risk to personnel.
The Solution
Working closely with specialists in the operation and maintenance of complex building services and consultants, the air purification technology underwent stringent testing in Lloyds iconic Lime Street estate in London during September – October 2020.
After delivering results identical to the immediate impact of fogging, the REME-HALO® air purification units were installed throughout the 55,000sqm building and other Lloyds estates.
The PHI® air purification technology uses no chemicals or harmful substances and works by producing and maintaining similar concentrations of hydrogen peroxide molecules, as those found in the outdoor air.
When coming into contact with microbials, the naturally occurring molecules break them down, destroy them and then revert them back to harmless water vapour and oxygen. The air purification technology produces 1 quadrillion of these molecules every second, quickly killing any airborne virus or bacteria, including COVID-19.

Camberwell Girls Grammar
Camberwell Girls Grammar School has been around for over 100 years. Survived the Great Depression and World War II; merged with Ormiston Girls’ School – Australia’s oldest school for girls; became an early adopter of technology and a leader in its use; achieved a long and continued pattern of academic excellence and has installed innovative air purification technology into their school.
The Challenge
Protecting staff and students in a heavily populated and poorly ventilated space from a potential viral transmission. Reducing allergens and particulates for improved internal air quality. Clean, fresh air being circulated into the space aids in concentration and feeling of well being. Reduce odours.
The Solution
Installed 8 Reme- HALO into the schools air-conditioning ducts.
