The healing properties of the mānuka tree helping you breathe easy
Kiwis are familiar with the healing and antibacterial properties of the mānuka tree. Not only does mānuka honey taste great, it’s good for you too. How about taking the benefits of the mānuka tree a step further? At HRV we have. The first line of defence that we use in our F8 filters is a strong physical barrier: many tightly overlapping electrospun nanofibres that absorb harmful particles. The next line of defence we use is a naturally occurring antimicrobial agent: mānuka oil.
Infusing the nanofibres with this bioactive oil can help protect against infectious pathogens, including bacteria, viruses, and fungi1.

New Zealand made filter technology
Want to know more about our filter technology, FilterLayr?
Every genuine HRV filter is manufactured by New Zealand’s most innovative deep tech company, NanoLayr. The filters they make for HRV feature FilterLayr: electrospun nanofibre which can be infused with active additives designed to trap and neutralise even the smallest airborne particles, while still allowing excellent airflow rates. FilterLayr nanofibre air filtration media can trap microscopic airborne particles such as spores, allergens and bacteria.
So while some third-party filters might look like they suit your HRV system, only a genuine HRV filter performs like one.
