IMPROVE THE AIR, IMPROVE YOUR LIFE
Propacare products regenerate all kinds of environments with purer air and authentic well-being. JoyBion devices minimize the presence of viruses, bacteria, smoke and unpleasant odours, both in the air and on surfaces, purifying spaces through versatile and effective solutions that adapt perfectly to different needs. With Propacare, a new era of individual and collective well-being has begun. Starting with nature and the quality of air, its most vital, precious and irreplaceable element.
Thunderstorms naturally ionize air, creating large quantities of negative ions and ozone. These two elements momentarily sanitize and purify air, but are so intensely charged that, if they didn’t quickly disperse, they would be unsuitable for life. Indeed, in nature, thunderstorms usually last a very short time, after which the air ionization and ozonation processes stabilize and quickly reach an equilibrium. This is why we believe that continuous emission of ozone in living spaces should be avoided. JoyBion, unlike other devices on the market, emit ozone only on demand, for a short time, and at a threshold much lower than legal limits (120 micrograms/ m3 | 60 ppb, parts per bilion).
Even waterfalls ionize the air, but in such a gentle and balanced way, without generating ozone, so that you can enjoy it limitlessly. Indeed, the environment near a waterfall is ideal for improving the well-being of people, animals and plants. This explains the invigorating energy that you get when you come across a waterfall in a lush and green forest.
Such principles guided us in the development of our JoyBion bipolar ionizers, which emit clusters of positive and negative ions in perfect balance that capture viruses and bacteria. Once captured, they are inactivated in mid air or directly on surfaces when the clusters settle. All this happens without emitting any ozone and by maintaining a natural balance of positive and negative ions, thus making the air perfectly breathable, just as if you were in a forest near a waterfall!
The bipolar clusters emitted by our ionizers not only eliminate viruses and bacteria, but also effectively break down environmental pollutants, cleaning the air of harmful fungal spores, allergens, volatile organic compounds (VOCs) and other common pathogens, making it healthier, more breathable and energizing. The highly innovative technology in our appliances thus rebalances, re-energizes and reinvigorates the environment.
JOYBIONS MAINTAIN A CONSTANT LEVEL OF BIPOLAR IONIZATION IN THE AIR.
PRECISION & SWISS TECHNOLOGY
JoyBion uses an evolution of the Swiss company Periso’s patented controlled carbon fibre technology, developed with Sols, to create a high concentration of bipolar ions that generates a superior quality air, just like the natural healthy environments in and around mountains, forests, waterfalls and the sea.
EXTREMELY SILENT
JoyBion works extremely silently, and is therefore suitable for use during the night, as it works quietly in the environment.
MINIMAL MAINTENANCE
Extremely durable, it requires little or no maintenance. All you have to do is change its simple and inexpensive filters every three to six months or so and clean from time to time the carbon fibers with the apposite brush.
DURABLE QUALITY
JoyBion is extremely effective, and requiring little or no maintenance.
ENERGETICALLY EFFICIENT
For its operation, it uses a minimal quantity of energy, and is, therefore, an eco-sustainable product with low environmental impact.
ROOM SIZE
JoyBion 400 is ideal for spaces up to 90 square meters.
PURIFICATION
JoyBion purifies air by breaking down, destroying and eliminating suspended allergens, fungal spores, harmful gases, bacteria and viruses. It also eliminates unpleasant odours and common environmental pollutants, neutralizing harmful agents such as Volatile Organic Compounds (VOCs), and, therefore, making air clean, pleasant and healthy.
IONIZATION
JoyBion simultaneously generates a precise ratio of negative and positive ions that encapsulate and inactivate bacteria and viruses, leaving the environment natural and healthy in an entirely eco-friendly way. This technology, called ‘controlled bipolar ionization’, constantly controls the ratio of differently charged ions to obtain a perfect natural balance never before achieved by any other consumer ionizer.
ENERGIZATION
Inside the JoyBion is a Bionomic Module, developed by the Swiss company SOLS, which uses an innovative nano-vibrational activation technique to increase the beneficial Natural Ambient Energy (NAE).
FILTRATION
Our devices are much more than a filter, they actually purify the air thanks to the above described controlled bipolar ionization method. To complete the purification circuit, however, they also have a filtering system that collects residual solid particles that may remain suspended in the air.
TIMED OZONIZATION
Nature itself thoroughly purifies air when lightening produces ozone. The JoyBion, to faithfully replicate this natural phenomenon, emits ozone on-demand for a limited time (max. three hours), via a simple press of a button, whenever needed. While the environment is sanitized with ozone, the controlled bipolar ionization continues to act with its proven synergistic effect on the sanitizing action of the aerosol, actively penetrating its droplets.

JoyBion is certainly effective against airborne fungi, moulds, spores and yeasts, both in ionization mode and even more so in ozone mode.
However, while it can eliminate these elements from the air, it cannot eliminate them, for example, from walls, and, therefore, should not be considered a general purpose anti-mould treatment product.
The JoyBion ionizer emits ions in a ratio of 1.2 million negative ions to 1 million positive ions. Therefore, around 20% more negative ions are purposely emitted. This value has been obtained by measurements using a special instrument positioned in front of the electrodes of the device, where the ions are generated.
The value may be different when measured away from the appliance, because, once released into the air, the ions reach an equilibrium based on the environmental situation they find themselves in, which depends on a range of variables, such as the mixture of gases making up the air, the relative humidity and other environmental factors.
JoyBion ionizer uses Controlled Bipolar Ionization technology to constantly monitor the emission of positive and negative ions.
As for how they work, let’s imagine we have a box cutter where the blade represents negative ions, and its case, which contains the blade, represents positive ions.
Considering that it is the negative ions that effectively “clean” the air, it is easy to understand that the blade representing them, in this example, will have to protrude a little from the case that contains it in order to attack and kill viruses and bacteria, just like when using the box cutter to cut. The case, that is the positive ions, on the other hand, serves to contain the sharpness of the blade itself, letting it protrude just enough to do its job, without protruding too much and harming the user.
This image explains how Controlled Bipolar Ionization (IBC) works, with positive ions, represented by the cutter case, containing the chain reaction in the air, and only a slight imbalance of negative ions, just enough for them to perform their function of “cleaning” the air. In this way, a precisely controlled cold plasma is generated. If, instead, there were no positive ions to rein in the chain reaction of an uncontrolled cold plasma, there would be an excessive and out of control emission of ozone.
The JoyBion ionizer is unique in its ability to both generate controlled bipolar Ionization and emit ozone on demand for a limited time. During the ozonization process, the device simultaneously continues to generate controlled bipolar ionization. Both features are, indeed, important in the battle against mites and mite allergies.
Controlled bipolar ionization (CBI) contribution comes from breaking down mite droppings, 0.3 micron micro-particles that float in the air and can cause allergies, and, in some cases, severe asthma.
With CBI, JoyBion successfully breaks down almost all micro-particles suspended in air, including most allergens. This leaves air purer and more breathable, minimizing the breathing problems caused by harmful particles and mite droppings.
Though this ionization process alone is already enough to recommend JoyBion, the advantages of the device don’t stop here. By activating its ozonization feature for a time of 90 to 180 minutes, without people present in the space, but leaving pillows, mattresses and blankets out, the ozone emitted by JoyBion acts on the surfaces and folds of the fabrics where the mites live, making life extremely difficult for them. With daily treatment, and, if possible, two or three treatments a day, extraordinary benefits should be seen within less than a few weeks.
Leaving the ionization feature to work continuously will minimize the presence of harmful particles suspended in the air, while a daily ozonization of at least 90 minutes, or even better 180 minutes, will minimize the presence of mites in fabrics and on surfaces. Ionization also significantly revitalizes and balances the air electrically. Naturally, this doesn’t obviate the need to regularly ventilate the environment to facilitate the normal change of air and supply of oxygen required by its users.
Mites feed on organic matter left by people on surfaces, including bed sheets. Therefore, effective sanitation, also by ozone, will eliminate the mites’ source of food, and promote the disappearance of allergy symptoms. Furthermore, as is well-known by allergy sufferers, it is not so much the mites that cause allergic reactions, but their droppings. Both ionization and the oxidative action of ozone can reduce and eliminate microbial proliferation linked to the presence of this organic waste, and, thus, significantly reduce this problem.
The JoyBion actually creates vitality in your environment, not sterility. The JoyBion features 2 modes: Ionize (controlled bipolar ionization) and Sanitize (controlled ozone generation). The Sanitize mode creates a robust sanitization of your environment destroying most viruses and bacteria in your environment. The Ionize mode generates a healthy and life-enhancing mix of negative and positive ions constantly while the unit is in operation. The effect is similar to the quality of air you would find while walking in the mountains or out in nature, and extremely healthy experience. There has also been significant research showing many positive effects for physical and mental wellbeing associated with ionization, will little to no negative effects when used properly.
One of the best features of the JoyBion machines is that they are constantly generating bipolar ionization - negative and positive ions. While a calibrated air ion meter is necessary to measure the exact number of ions being generated, rest assured the JoyBion is always working to generate this healthy ionization as long as you can see the electrode carbon fibers in the machine. Over many many years these fibers may have problems and only then this element may need to be changed. Also essential to optimize the ions being generated is a simple periodic cleaning of these carbon fibers to make sure they are always working at their best.
JoyBion Propacare dispositives work thanks to an innovative basic principle that goes over the concept of filter.
Our filters are not HEPA filters and do not comply with the above-mentioned standard, simply because our devices work as ionizers and their filters only serves to collect the residues of already deactivated pathogens. Let’s explain the difference.
Filtering devices with filters that are HEPA compliant or of lower quality filter the air just as it is, capturing, in their mesh, only the impurities and pathogens in the air that passes through the filter.
Our ionizers do much more than this. They emit millions of ions per minute, dispersing them in the indoor air via an advanced fan system. In just a few seconds, these ions reach every corner and surface of the environment, attacking viruses, bacteria, volatile organic compounds (VOCs), pollen, and so on, and quickly neutralize them. The remains of the deactivated pathogens are then collected from the air by ionizer filter. This filter has the main function of preventing the particles of the deactivated pollutants from being pushed back into the environment by the fan, which, as mentioned above, has the primary function of dispersing the ions so that they can sanitize the entire environment.
The function of our bionizing devices is therefore not to pack the pathogens into the filter, but to disarm them while they are still in the air, and then collect them in the filter or allow them to settle, once deactivated. Conversely, then active viruses and bacteria accumulate in HEPA and other less efficient filters, when they are emptied, cleaned or replaced, there is a great risk of touching and breathing in pathogens that are still active. While, in the case of our ionizer filters, only deactivated pathogens remain.
Thanks to the right electromagnetic charge in the bipolar ion cluster of the JoyBion Propacare air purifier, pollutants are reduced and precipitated by incorporation.
The Propacare JoyBion air ioniser forms clusters of positive and negative ions controlled and balanced in a perfect percentage to make the cluster active for deactivation and abatement of viruses, bacteria and environmental pollutants.
The traditional air purifiers attract the air inside thanks to fans and remove the organic compounds (bacteria, powder…) by passing it through simple filters. JoyBion Propacare ionizers, on the other hand, emit clusters of positive and negative ions that incorporate organic compounds and capture them in the air, deactivating and precipitating them. Organic compounds can also be deactivated on surfaces when ion clusters deposit and incorporate them. The great strength of ionisers JoyBion Propacare, compared to traditional air purifiers, is that they you have two products all in one, because they produce ozone only on demand and for a limited time and they ionize, so they are able to regenerate the air making it healthy and breathable thanks to the natural balance between positive and negative ions.
Cold plasma sanitization uses a process similar to a thunderstorm, where lightning emits strong oscillating electrical fields that increase the energy of molecules in the air, and particularly those containing water. Water molecules are thus broken up, leading to a low temperature chain reaction that releases energy via electricity and not a temperature rise, hence the term “cold plasma”.
In this way, the cold plasma sanitization process creates huge amounts of highly oxidizing free radicals that attack the protective membranes of pathogens in the air and rapidly deactivate them.
In October 2020, the Department of Molecular Medicine of the University of Padua scientifically proved that this type of sanitization is also able to disarm the virus SARS-CoV-2.
Our JoyBion Propacare ionizers make use of this innovative technology, and, unlike other similar ionizers, constantly and precisely maintain a balance in the emission of positive and negative ions, just like in nature. Thanks to this unique function, our devices can safely be used in the presence of people, for an unlimited time.
Glossary
Mites, The acari (or Acarina) are a taxon of arachnids that contains mites and ticks. The diversity of the Acari is extraordinary and their fossil history goes back to at least the early Devonian period. Acarologists (people who study the Acari) have proposed a complex set of taxonomic ranks to classify mites. In most modern treatments, the Acari are considered a subclass of the Arachnida and are composed of two or three superorders or orders: Acariformes (or Actinotrichida), Parasitiformes (or Anactinotrichida), and Opilioacariformes; the latter is often considered a subgroup within the Parasitiformes. The monophyly of the Acari is open to debate, and the relationships of the acarines to other arachnids is not at all clear. In older treatments, the subgroups of the Acarina were placed at order rank, but as their own subdivisions have become better understood, treating them at the superorder rank is more usual.
Some parasitic forms affect humans and other mammals, causing damage by their feeding, and can even be vectors of diseases, such as scrub typhus, rickettsialpox, Lyme disease, Q fever, Colorado tick fever, tularemia, tick-borne relapsing fever, babesiosis, ehrlichiosis, and tick-borne meningoencephalitis. A well-known effect of mites on humans is their role as allergens and the stimulation of asthma in people affected by respiratory disease.
The use of predatory mites (for example, Phytoseiidae) in pest control and herbivorous mites that infest weeds are also of importance. An unquantified, but major positive contribution of the Acari is their normal functioning in ecosystems, especially their roles in the decomposer subsystem. In this context, the association of many species with carcasses and decaying organic matter qualify them as potential medicolegal indicators in forensic entomology.
JoyBion is a great solution to solve asthma and diseaeses created by Acari.
JoyBion’s controlled Bipolar Ionization simultaneously generates a precise ratio of negative and positive ions using a Periso’s patented technology to create a high concentration of bipolar ions that generates a superior quality air, just like the natural healthy environments.
These positively and negatively charged ions encapsulate and deactivate harmful agents in the indoor air and environments such as bacteria, moulds, allergens and virus.
It is a natural process that also involves the respiratory system because it is a valid defence against problems related to allergies, asthmatic situations and infections.
Cold plasma ionization is a type of ionization similar to what naturally happens in a thunderstorm when lightning strikes. An oscillating electric field increases the energy of air molecules, which collide at high speed, break up, and release ions. Once this “cold” chemical transformation has taken place, the air becomes what is called a “plasma”.
JoyBion Propacare ionizers are based on this innovative technology, and use controlled bipolar ionization to ensure that there is a balance between positive and negative ions, just like in nature during a thunderstorm.

Cold plasma sanitization works by electrically charging air particles, transforming them into an ionized gas capable of breaking down volatile compounds and reducing the viral load of air.
Our JoyBion Propacare ionizers are based on this innovative technology, and use controlled bipolar ionization to ensure that positive and negative ions are emitted in a precise, constantly balanced quantity, just as in a thunderstorm.
Non Thermal Plasma (NTP) Technology, also known as “cold plasma” technology, is used in air ionizers to electrically charge air particles, transforming them into an ionized gas, called a plasma, which is capable of breaking down viruses and volatile compounds in the air.
Our JoyBion Propacare ionizers are based on this innovative technology and, moreover, they use the controlled bipolar ionization that create a perfetct balance of negative and positive ions.
