The BAF Seal of Approval
In a recent independent survey by a German manufacturing company it was found that the Seal of Approval is the most recognized mark for allergy sufferers in Europe. The BAF Seal of Approval is given to products that specifically restrict or remove allergens from the environment of allergy sufferers and can be scientifically tested with measurable results. The type of products that currently hold the Seal of Approval Award include vacuum cleaners, steam cleaners, bedding, flooring/carpets, air cleaners, filtration and ventilation systems and professionally applied treatment systems. BAF conducted independent testing on the Ionic Breeze and concluded that "the Ionic Breeze reduces the allergen load in the air sufficiently to be of benefit to allergy sufferers." The BAF Seal of Approval is an endorsement of the products which have been awarded the seal.
