Molekule Group, Inc., a prominent air purification technology company, has recently announced the launch of Molekule 360, a proprietary air quality management solution for commercial and resimercial spaces. Designed to be scalable for enterprise-wide deployments, the Molekule 360 platform is stated to be integratable into existing building management systems (BMS) and other automation platforms.
The news comes as whole swathes of the United States are being impacted by smoke from the ongoing Canadian wildfires, greatly impacting air quality across both the United States and Canada. The fires themselves have been burning since March and have only increased in intensity since June with many calling it the worst wildfire season since California’s 2020 wildfires.
According to Molekule, the platform provides AI-enabled air quality insights in real time and can do so across multiple buildings within a company’s portfolio. The platform also features weather intelligence data supported by integrations with satellites from Molekule’s partner Tomorrow.io, which, according to Molekule, allows the network to anticipate events such as wildfire smoke and pollen count.
Leveraging this data, Molekule notes that decision-makers create rules and set real-time notifications and automations for when IAQ parameters meet certain thresholds.
Additionally, Molekule 360 features built-in support for thousands of Molekule purifiers enabling monitoring and automatic air quality management out of the box and from a single location, according to the company.
“We recognize that indoor air quality directly impacts the health and well-being of building occupants — and is an increasingly vital component of healthy building initiatives,” said Jason DiBona, CEO of Molekule. “In the U.S., many of us spend approximately 90% of our lives indoors, so measuring, treating and controlling indoor air helps combat pollutants and other harmful microorganisms to make the air we breathe cleaner.”
Early adopters of the Molekule 360 platform include Carr Properties, ITVS, Rancho Valencia, Sacred Heart Academy, Salesforce. Notably, Salesforce purchased and deployed approximately 3,000 Molekule devices over the last two years across 30 locations throughout the U.S. and Canada for its office spaces.
“Implementing Molekule 360 has revolutionized our approach to indoor air quality management,” said Ilan Zachar, chief technology officer at Carr Properties.
Molekule has gone on to state that its patented PECO technology is one of a kind in its capability to not only capture but break down pollutants like bacteria, viruses, mold, allergens and more. Molekule devices are the only air purifiers to use patented PECO technology to destroy pollutants.
