Overview of Airborne Particle Concentration Testing

Airborne particle concentration testing measures the number of particles released into the air during the use of cleaning products. This test is critical for evaluating the impact of cleaning products on indoor air quality (IAQ). The testing process helps determine whether a product minimizes or exacerbates airborne particle levels during cleaning.

What Is Airborne Particle Concentration Testing?

Airborne particles can be released into the air during the cleaning process, potentially affecting indoor air quality. At Airmid Healthgroup, we use a controlled testing process to measure particle concentration, ensuring manufacturers can confidently make claims about their product’s performance and impact on IAQ.

This testing is particularly valuable for:

  • Manufacturers seeking third-party validation of product claims.
  • Consumers concerned about asthma and allergy triggers.
  • Regulators and organizations focused on improving IAQ standards.

Test Method Description

Airborne particle concentration testing is performed in a controlled environmental test chamber where key parameters such as air exchange rate, temperature, and relative humidity are standardized. This ensures accurate and reproducible results.

Preparation:

  • House dust containing a known concentration of allergens is applied to a specified surface area.
  • Dry dusting and cleaning with water are used as baseline controls for comparison.

Testing Process:

  • The cleaning product is applied according to the manufacturer’s instructions, and the cleaning process is carried out in a standardized manner to ensure consistency.
  • During cleaning, the concentration of airborne particles is measured using a Cassella dust monitor.

Turnaround Time

Results are typically available within 2 weeks of receiving samples, allowing for quick and reliable feedback to support product claims.
