International. With its cleaner mobility platform, Mann+Hummel has set out to demonstrate that emission-neutral driving without particulate pollution is now possible.
The platform consists of a small electric vehicle as a technology carrier equipped with Mann+Hummel products. These products have helped transform the vehicle into an emissions-neutral vehicle, the company said.
Products installed in the vehicle include:
The company's intelligent cabin air filtration system, which analyzes cabin air and the environment, activates a HEPA filter on demand to remove harmful ultrafine particles from incoming and circulating cabin air. In addition, an activated carbon filter in the system reduces hazardous polluting gases such as SO2, NO2 and VOCs, the company said.
Mann+Hummel brake dust particulate filters, which are mounted directly on the brake and reduce particulates.
Integrated fine dust filters, which are installed between the radiator and bumper and can transform cars, trucks, vans and buses into mobile fine dust particle filters.
The company's Cyclo-Multi-Sorber indoor air quality and energy-saving system, which absorbs moisture inside the vehicle and ensures clear visibility. It also absorbs CO2 exhaled by passengers, causing drowsiness at higher concentrations. The absorption units are automatically regenerated in the process, which saves energy, the company said.
"We installed our filtration systems in an electric vehicle to show how sustainability goals can be achieved quickly and effectively with sophisticated technology," explains Markus Kolczyk, vice president of original equipment and global engineering.
"In the mobility sector, this is our contribution to a cleaner environment, based on 80 years of knowledge, experience and research," he adds.
