Non-thermal plasma sanitization for cultivation rooms — air and surfaces.
AirROS generates seven reactive oxygen species (ROS) that leave the unit and sanitize the air and every surface throughout the space — benches, walls, canopy, anywhere in the room. Mold, powdery mildew, botrytis, fusarium, and HLVd: gone, continuously, while the room is occupied.
AirROS by SAGE Industrial uses non-thermal plasma — high-voltage, high-frequency pulses at very low amperage — to ionize ambient air into seven reactive oxygen species. Five species sanitize inside the reaction chamber. Two more (gas-phase H2O2 and trace ozone) leave the unit and continue sanitizing the air and every surface throughout the room.
Unlike UV-C (line of sight only), HEPA (in-unit only), bipolar ionizers (limited reach), or PCO (slow surface contact), AirROS provides continuous, occupied-room sanitization — no shutdowns, no chemical wipe-downs, no production loss. Trace ozone stays below 50% of OSHA’s 24-hour exposure limit, so cultivation, trim, and packaging teams can work right next to running units.

The science, in two phases
Seven active species. Two phases. One very clean room.
The reaction chamber does the hard work. What leaves the unit keeps working — which is why AirROS sanitizes surfaces where UV, HEPA and ionizers can’t.
01
Primary · Inside the chamber
High-voltage, low-amp plasma.
Controlled pulses generate five reactive species that break carbon-to-carbon bonds — atomic oxygen, singlet oxygen, hydroxyl radical, superoxide, peroxynitrite.
02
Secondary · Out in the room
Two species leave to sanitize surfaces.
Gas-phase hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) and trace ozone (sub-OSHA) diffuse through the space — sanitizing the air and every surface throughout the room. Continuous, not batch.
Why AirROS Beats UV-C, HEPA, and Ionizers
Whole-Room Coverage
UV-C only kills what passes its bulb. HEPA only catches what enters the filter. AirROS sends sanitizing species out of the unit to clean the air and every surface throughout the room — canopy, benches, walls, anywhere in the space.
No Crop Downtime
Run continuously while staff is in the room. No chemical wipe-downs, no shutdowns, no harvest-day scramble to sanitize between rotations.
Mold + Mildew Prevention
Stops powdery mildew, botrytis, fusarium, and HLVd before they take a room down. Real case studies from licensed operators show measurable yield protection.
Quiet + Efficient
74–82 dB on starter, low-amperage draw across the line. Plugs into standard 120V outlets — no electrical upgrade required for most installs.
Live ROS PPM Display
On-board sensor shows live reactive oxygen species concentration. Verify the unit is working at any glance — no guessing.
Cultivation-Proven
Real-world case studies from Primitiv, Back to Roots, KGB, PDX Organics, and SA Cultivation — licensed operators using AirROS in active grows.
How AirROS Compares — Competitive Technologies
AirROS non-thermal plasma generates seven reactive oxygen species — five inside the chamber for air, two longer-lived (H₂O₂ + trace O₃) that carry sanitation to surfaces and across the room. Here’s how that stacks up against the alternatives.
