For 30 years, Austin Air has been the world’s leading Certified HEPA Material air purifier manufacturer.

We outperformed all other air purifiers in government tests

In 2000, the Austin Air HealthMate™ was tested alongside more than 100 other air purifiers, as part of US Government research at Battelle Laboratories, Aberdeen, MD. Our Air Purifiers outperformed all other models and were selected by the Government as it prepared to destroy its stockpile of chemical weapons.

Number one choice in times of crisis

Working with the US Government in 2000 led to our work with FEMA and the American Red Cross during some of America’s most difficult times, including 9-11, Hurricane Katrina; Hurricane Sandy, the 2015 SoCal gas leak and in recent years, as we experienced the worst wildfires on record.

Today, as we face unprecedented challenges with Covid-19, the World Health Organization, the Department of Defense and the Center for Disease Control, are again recommending the use of Certified HEPA Material filtration to protect the American people.

Indoor public spaces are high risk

The threat of Covid-19 makes any indoor public space, a high risk. Particularly at this time of year, when opening a window or door is just not possible. If you’re spending time with others indoors, perhaps at the office or at the gym, you are at increased risk of becoming infected. Which is why government agencies and organizations such as the WHO are recommending the use of Certified HEPA Material filtration.

Certified HEPA Material is the answer

When it comes to air filtration, Certified HEPA Material is the gold standard. Its ability to remove a wide range of pollutants from the air, including dust, dander, pollen, mold spores, allergens, bacteria and viruses, makes it the number one choice for the government and the WHO.

Looking to the future

Vaccine delays and a new, more contagious strain of the virus means the end of this pandemic is still a long way off. As we try to live alongside Covid-19, effective air filtration, masks and keeping our distance are the only way we can protect ourselves and minimize the risk of infection.

New CDC Mold Data (2026): What It Really Means

The first CDC study to measure invasive mold disease—who’s actually at risk, and what it means for the air in your home. In late July 2026, the CDC published the first systematic estimate of how often invasive mold disease occurs in American hospitals. Researchers reviewed 968 possible cases at four Atlanta-area hospitals between 2020 and 2024 and confirmed nearly 450 of them as invasive mold disease.
