[NIDS](https://akta.pro/company-profiles/000ypd9/nids) Co., Ltd. is expanding supply of its Airvom air purification and sterilization brand to hospitals, nursing homes, schools, welfare facilities and subway stations, the company said in a [PR Newswire announcement](https://www.prnewswire.com/news-releases/nids-co-ltd-expands-airvom-supply-to-high-traffic-facilities-strengthening-its-air-quality-management-solutions-business-302934649.html). The South Korean company, founded in 2000, designs and mass-produces particulate matter sensors, optical gas sensors and composite environmental sensor modules in-house, and has supplied plasma ionizers for odor removal in domestic automotive air conditioners since 2000.

## How Airvom Links Sensing and Sterilization

According to NIDS, Airvom pairs a precision sensor that detects indoor air conditions with a plasma module, and the system ties purification and sterilization to the air quality data the sensor measures. The company said the product uses dielectric barrier discharge low-temperature plasma technology aimed at airborne viruses and harmful bacteria, alongside its purification function.

NIDS cites owning both the sensor and the sterilization module as proprietary technology as a competitive strength in development and operation. The company said it can control sensor sensitivity and tune operating algorithms to suit a system, and plans to use that tuning when linking the sensor and plasma module.

The product line is organized by usage space, from vehicle and personal models to residential and office units and models for hospitals and high-traffic facilities. Airvom's business offering also includes S+Link, an Internet of Things platform for real-time air quality management, which NIDS presents as a way to connect sensors, finished products and the platform.

"Airvom will expand its supply network centered on high-traffic facilities such as hospitals, nursing homes, schools, welfare facilities, and subway stations (B2G/B2B)," a NIDS representative said.

The company plans to run its sensor supply business and the Airvom business as two pillars. Its component business primarily targets home appliance, automotive and HVAC companies, while Airvom seeks supply opportunities with public institutions and facility operators.

## NIDS Sensor Exports and Smart-City Work

NIDS has developed sensor technology for more than 20 years since its founding in 2000, according to akta.pro [company records](https://akta.pro/company-data), and exports millions of dust sensors globally each year. The same records show annual sensor exports of $10 million. In March 2023, NIDS signed a partnership with Walton Chain Technology to jointly develop an environment, energy and water smart-city platform for Xiamen, China, with plans to establish a Korean joint venture by June 2023 funded by Walton Chain.

## Overseas Buyers and University Talks

NIDS plans to contact buyers and identify local partnership opportunities through its existing overseas branch network in the United States, Japan and China. The company is also preparing a business foundation for its entry into the U.S. market through exchanges with Yale University and Johns Hopkins University.
