Introduction
Since year 2000, Plasmacluster had evolved in providing clean, pure and healthy air to our honored customers for almost two decades. This proprietary technology from Sharp will keep evolve from another decades and contribute to a better world. Plasmacluster only from Sharp.
History
In 1998, Sharp was exploring for a new air purification technology that clean air more effective to provide people a better indoor air quality. In 2000, Sharp develop world first air purification technology by generating positive (H+) and negative (O2-) ion simultaneously release to the air by Plasmacluster ion generator that similar found in nature and entirely safe for human health.
Sharp released air purifier, FU-L40X with Plasmacluster technology to the market and apply this technology to other products such air conditioner, refrigerator, hair dryer. Sharp expanding the Plasmacluster technology in wide variety of application and other industries such as transportation, medical field, living environment and public facilities.

Plasmacluster on SHARP Products
With Plasmacluster technology on every Sharp product, it can bring the freshness and comfort at all times.
Sharp Air Purifiers contain a Plasmacluster Ion Generator that releases positive and negative ions into the air. The Plasmacluster Ions diuse through the room, surrounding airborne allergens, bacteria, mould and viruses, converting hydrogen molecules in their surface proteins into water.

Sharp Air Conditioners does not compromise clean air. With Sharp Plasmacluster Technology built in the Sharp Air Conditioner, positive and negative ions are discharged when the air conditioner is switch on. Plasmacluster suppresses airborne virus and bacteria, airborne and proliferating mould, unpleasant odour and allergens such as dust mites and faeces.
