LIFE-01
In a time when indoor air quality directly impacts our health and well-being, LIFE-01 is leading the charge with a breakthrough solution that transforms how we breathe indoors. Founded in 2018 by contamination control expert Thomas Faure, this French company brings cleanroom-grade technology into homes, workplaces, and public spaces—effortlessly and intelligently.
Central to LIFE-01’s innovation is Element®, a ceiling-mounted air purification system that discreetly blends into any environment while delivering unmatched performance. Winner of the 2025 World Future Award for Best Smart Air Purification Technology, Element® does more than purify air—it creates a healthier, smarter indoor experience.
Merging sleek design with industrial-level filtration, Element® eliminates a wide spectrum of airborne threats, from viruses and bacteria to volatile organic compounds and nano particles. Integrated smart sensors constantly monitor indoor conditions—air quality, CO₂ levels, humidity, and temperature—and communicate faultlessly with a companion app, empowering users with real-time data and hands-free control.
Element® doubles as a high-efficiency LED light panel, offering 2,500 lumens of adaptive lighting while consuming less energy than a standard light bulb. The result? Enhanced comfort, improved air, and up to 30% lower energy consumption—all from a single, silent, ceiling-mounted device.
LIFE-01’s approach goes beyond the hardware. The company offers a complete ecosystem of support—from expert consultation and installation to ongoing maintenance and analytics—ensuring clients receive lasting value and measurable health benefits. Independent lab certifications reinforce Element®’s performance, providing transparency and trust in every unit deployed.
With a production capacity of 20,000 units annually and strong positioning in the smart building sector, LIFE-01 is poised for global scale. Its solution speaks to a universal need: safe, clean indoor air—delivered elegantly and efficiently.
LIFE-01 is on a mission to combat one of the most overlooked health issues of our time. Through Element®, they’re cleaning the air while reimagining what it means to live well indoors.
