As you blissfully shuffle yourself, the kiddos and even pets around town and to and from work and school each day, do you ever consider the pollutants you and your kids are breathing in? Sure, these pollutants are invisible to the naked eye, but that doesn’t mean they’re not there. Sometimes you can even smell them, but it’s quite rare you see these gases, chemicals, and odors. We’re talking benzene, soot, formaldehyde, volatile organic compounds (VOCs), nitrogen dioxide, bacteria, sulfur dioxide, allergens such as pollen, and more that are permeating your car’s cozy interior, creating a toxic cocktail of gases and fumes. This slew of substances creates air that can be up to fifteen times more polluted than the air outside on the road, according to research. Eeek! I’d say, in this case, ignorance is indeed not bliss.
Protect Your Vehicle’s Cabin
Each year about 6.5 million deaths worldwide are linked to air pollution, as reported by the International Energy Agency. With the 20,000 breaths we take a day, on average, these normal levels of indoor air pollution are negatively affecting our brain function and decision making, according to a 2016 study published in Environmental Health Perspectives. And, it’s not just adults. Children are the most susceptible to pollution and can experience lowered immunity, difficulty concentrating and childhood-onset asthma. Today, 26 million Americans, including 6 million children, live with asthma.
A study conducted by MIT’s Laboratory for Aviation and the Environment found ten percent of deaths in America are attributed to air pollution. Toxic exposures increase our risk for many diseases, including cancer.
New Car Smell
While you may enjoy the new car smell, there isn’t anything fresh, healthy or beneficial about it. Researchers have found that it can take up to three years for “new car smell” toxins to drop below thresholds considered “safe” to breathe. The VOC’s emit toxic chemicals such as phthalates; synthetic hormone-disrupting compounds into the air you breathe.
Many people question the air quality on airplanes, yet fly rather infrequently. However, the majority of us drive every single day and never examine the air we are breathing inside the cabin. Since oxygen masks are not dropping from the ceiling of your car’s interior, how do you protect yourself from VOC’s and other potentially harmful compounds?
Did You Know? Over 275 chemicals can be present inside your car at any given time. Many of these ultrafine particles (UFPs), which make up 90 percent of airborne particles, are produced by interior materials.

Atem Car’s HyperHEPA
Did you know Ordinary HEPA filters can only filter 0.3-micron particles and larger? Atem’s HyperHEPA filters course (pollen and mold), fine (allergens, bacteria, and dust) and ultrafine particles down to 0.003 microns. Ultrafine particles are the most prevalent and most dangerous particles consisting of over 90 percent of all airborne particles. They include pollutants such as viruses, tobacco smoke, and soot. Ultrafine particles are inhaled and absorbed directly into the lungs where they penetrate tissues and can be incorporated into the bloodstream due to their small size. Once in the blood, these ultrafine particles can reach any organ or part of the body.
Atem Car’s HyperHEPA Plus filter provides the best solution for in-cabin gas and odor elimination, removing 99% of particle pollutants and adsorbing odor and gas molecules. The superior gas filtration results in air that is free of smells, gases, chemicals, and particles.
Protection Against Ultrafine Particles
Atem Car’s HyperHEPA Plus filtration is effective against particles 100x smaller than ordinary air filters. Ultrafine particles (UFPs) are smaller than 0.1 microns. Traffic pollution is a primary source of UFPs – and when it comes to protection against UFPs, IQAir is the proven choice.
Powerful, continual Cleaning
Powerful air cleaning technology of the Atem Car air purifier cleans your interior air up to 20 times per hour, providing you with the cleanest possible air for your commute. By utilizing IQAir’s revolutionary HyperHEPA Plus filter, the Atem Car will be absorbing gases and odors while converting the pollutants to an oxidized form.
