NIDS Co., Ltd. Expands 'Airvom' Supply to High-Traffic Facilities, Strengthening Its Air Quality Management Solutions Business

Company leverages in-house precision sensors and plasma modules to target hospitals, schools, and welfare facilities in B2G and B2B markets

SEOUL, South Korea, Nov. 10, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- NIDS Co., Ltd. is expanding its air quality management business for high-traffic public facilities with Airvom, its in-house air purification and sterilization brand. The company plans to broaden its public- and private-sector supply network, targeting hospitals, nursing homes, schools, welfare facilities, and subway stations.

According to NIDS, Airvom is an air care product that combines a precision sensor that detects indoor air conditions with a plasma module. The company explained that the system links purification and sterilization functions to the air quality data measured by the sensor, applying its environmental measurement component technology to air quality management in real spaces.

The core of what NIDS is presenting to the high-traffic facility market is the link between measurement and operation. Built on a structure that identifies air conditions in real time and reflects them in how the product operates, the company aims to address air quality management needs within facilities. The company said it applied plasma technology targeting airborne viruses and harmful bacteria in addition to its purification function.

Airvom uses dielectric barrier discharge (DBD) low-temperature plasma technology. NIDS said the product combines its independently developed plasma radical technology with its sensing technology. The company cites owning both the sensor and the sterilization module as proprietary technology as a key competitive strength in product development and operation.

This structure of directly handling core components also ties into how the company develops finished products. NIDS explained that it can control sensor sensitivity and tune operating algorithms to suit the system. It plans to use this tuning capability when linking the sensor and plasma module, developing products in a direction that improves performance and quality stability.

The product line is organized by usage space, ranging from vehicle and personal models to residential and office units and models for hospitals and high-traffic facilities. Among these, the company identified hospitals, nursing homes, schools, welfare facilities, and subway stations as targets for future supply expansion. NIDS plans to establish Airvom in the market through B2G and B2B business aimed at facilities.

Airvom's business offering also includes S+Link, an Internet of Things (IoT) platform for real-time air quality management. NIDS presents a solution that connects sensors, finished products, and the platform to monitor and manage air conditions. The company aims to extend its business scope beyond supplying individual devices to the management domain that makes use of air quality data.

The foundation of the Airvom business is NIDS's experience in environmental sensor manufacturing and plasma module development. Founded in 2000, NIDS has designed and mass-produced particulate matter sensors, optical gas sensors, and composite environmental sensor modules in-house. The company has also been developing and supplying plasma ionizers for odor removal in domestic automotive air conditioners since 2000, a technology that was developed to eliminate bacteria and viruses. By applying its experience developing core air-measurement components to finished air purification and sterilization products, the company is pursuing its own-brand business.

This represents a move to secure customer touchpoints distinct from its sensor component supply. While the component business primarily targets home appliance, automotive, and HVAC companies, Airvom seeks supply opportunities with public institutions and facility operators that run actual spaces. The company plans to operate the sensor supply business and the Airvom business as two pillars and expand its presence in the finished-product market.

NIDS is also exploring the potential for supplying its air quality management solutions overseas. It plans to contact buyers and identify local partnership opportunities through its existing overseas branch network in the United States, Japan, and China. Alongside expanding supply to domestic high-traffic facilities, the company intends to pursue overseas sales channels in parallel.

Going forward, NIDS will promote the product competitiveness of its combined sensor and plasma technologies and continue supply discussions with public and private facilities. Its goal is to extend its in-house component technology into a finished air care product business and secure a market foundation for Airvom.

The company is also preparing to build a business foundation for its entry into the U.S. market through exchanges with Yale University and Johns Hopkins University.

"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.
