Company Description

It is estimated that over 900,000 people die every year from exposure to harmful chemicals released from our home furniture, wall paint, cleaning products and secondhand smoke also known as Volatile Organic Compounds (VOCs). Our furniture off-gas formaldehyde, benzene, ammonia and other chemicals over their lifetime and are known to cause cancer and birth defects in people.

Our patent-pending technologies are designed to extract chemicals from the air using a 5 stage bio-filtration process that leverages natural filters known to effectively remove VOCs from the air.

Why now?

1) We are market-ready, we spent the past 3 years completing the R&D, Engineering, Prototyping, App Development, Mold Design and Tooling.

The money raised through Eureeca will go into funding production and creating inventory, which will, in turn, be sent to Amazon warehouses and will generate immediate cash flow for the business.

2) Procter & Gamble has recently placed an order with us so they can test our products and could potentially lead to a purchase order. We also received strong interest and purchase letters of intent from major retailers such as Urban Outfitters, Williams Sonoma, Sharper Image, Zepter International and more.

3) The rise of the eco-friendly consumer. There's an ever-increasing demand for eco-friendly products. Nearly 70% of consumers in the U.S. and Canada think it is important that a brand is sustainable or eco-friendly, according to a new study by IBM and the National Retail Federation.

4) Our products are connected to the cloud and will have blockchain integration that will incentivize users to purify their indoor air. Users will earn "Green Crypto Coins" which are calculated based on the number of hours the air is purified. The green coins have a strong social and environmental value and can be used to grow trees, build water wells in rural communities and build dew collectors through our NGO arm Rootsupsolutions.org. Users can also sell their utilized green coins as carbon credits.
