INTERZON LTD

What INTERZON LTD does

INTERZON LTD operates the AirMaid product line, an ozone-based air treatment system for commercial kitchen and industrial exhaust applications. The company is headquartered in Täby, Sweden (Reprovägen 12, SE-183 77) and is the AirMaid-branded subsidiary within Absolent CKV AB, which sits inside the Absolent Air Care Group, a 12-brand, 8-plant, 60-country air cleaning conglomerate that has been in operation since 1969. INTERZON itself was founded in 1996 and has 11-50 employees per its firmographic data.

AirMaid's core technology is the proprietary CGC (Corona Glass Cell) generator, which produces ozone from clean make-up air drawn through the unit using the existing kitchen exhaust fan. The generated ozone breaks down grease molecules through ozonolysis (converting long-chain hydrocarbons into water vapor, carbon, and dry minerals) and oxidizes odor compounds, particularly sulphur and acetaldehyde-based molecules, achieving up to 95% odor reduction. The product line comprises four models — AirMaid 5000 V, 10000 V, 20000 V, and 30000 V — scaling from 100W to 500W, with regional variants for the Americas (UL/ETL-listed, imperial dimensions) and EMEA/APAC (SS-EN16282-8:2017, metric dimensions). The units are NFPA 96 compliant when installed on the clean-air side. All units are compact and lightweight (10-28 kg) for retrofit in tight spaces where traditional pollution control units (PCUs) cannot fit, and require no consumables or filter replacements.

The business model is a B2B one-time hardware sale plus installation and 1-2x-per-year professional servicing, sold through a regional channel-partner network rather than direct sales. AirMaid targets four primary verticals: quick-service restaurants (QSR) — anchored by 500+ McDonald's and 100+ Burger King European installations, plus 30+ KFC, Five Guys, and Popeyes sites; hotels and hospitality (Hilton, Holiday Inn, Grand Curiosa, Encore Boston); shopping malls and food courts (Täby Centrum, IFC Seoul, Starfield Coex, Forena Jeonju, Understory Houston); and entertainment/transportation venues (airports, casinos, high-rise buildings). Distribution is organized by region: Americas (Buckley Associates, Norman S. Wright, Technical Air Systems, etc.), EMEA (Jeven AB, Lindab, Scanion, Globezon, MG Plus, etc.), and APAC (Absolent Filtermist India, RescoEng Korea, A-Tech HK/Macau, KITCHENCO Qatar). Pricing is quote-based and not publicly disclosed. The technology has documented outcomes including a 51% duct cleaning cost reduction at Holiday Inn San Francisco over 19 months and continuous operations without complaints at multiple sites, supporting the value proposition of low operational cost, improved fire safety, and enablement of heat recovery.

Core offering

INTERZON LTD (operating commercially as AirMaid, part of Absolent Air Care Group) develops and sells ozone-based air cleaning generators for commercial kitchen exhaust systems. The AirMaid product line uses proprietary CGC (Corona Glass Cell) technology to generate ozone from make-up air, which breaks down grease molecules through ozonolysis and neutralizes odor compounds through oxidation. The company sells four hardware models (5000 V, 10000 V, 20000 V, 30000 V) targeting QSR chains, hotels, shopping malls, and other commercial cooking operations.

Product overview

AirMaid® is a product line by Absolent CKV AB (part of Absolent Air Care Group) offering four ozone-based air cleaning models (5000 V, 10000 V, 20000 V, 30000 V) for commercial kitchen ventilation. The products use proprietary CGC (Corona Glass Cell) Technology to generate ozone from make-up air, which breaks down grease molecules and odor-causing compounds through ozonolysis and oxidation. The portfolio scales from compact 100W units for smaller installations to 500W units handling high-volume commercial kitchen exhaust, with regional variants for Americas (imperial dimensions, UL certification) and EMEA/APAC (metric dimensions, EN standards).
