Parking Match

In Europe, it's difficult to find an on-street parking spot and many people feel stressed about it.

Air Purification

We need clean air to survive. This means air that is safe from harmful pollution and infectious viruses alike. One example is our plasma air purifier which neutralizes various viruses from a contained space. This indoor air purification system gives businesses and customers alike a sense of safety and security.​ Our developments in air purification have allowed us to significantly lower costs, making the technology more accessible to the public.
