The challenge

The reception area at a Network Rail site was experiencing persistent issues with unwanted odours. This was creating an unwelcoming environment for staff and visitors. Reception areas give visitors a first impression of the business they are visiting, therefore maintaining a consistently fresh and pleasant atmosphere is essential.

Facilities service provider Mitie worked with phs to identify a solution that would neutralise bad odours and deliver a reliable, continuous fragrance without placing an ongoing maintenance burden on site staff

The solution

phs recommended the phs OXY-Supreme, an intelligent air freshener that uses oxygenated fuel cell technology to deliver a precise, consistent fragrance experience.

Unlike traditional aerosol systems, the OXY-Supreme works by using oxygen to release a continuous measured dose of fragrance from an internal bladder onto a cellulose pad, allowing it to disperse evenly throughout the environment. This means fragrance intensity remains consistent from day one right through to the end of the cartridge life.

The result

Following installation of the phs OXY-Supreme in the Network Rail reception area, the improvement was immediately noticeable. The site facilities team reported a significant positive change in the atmosphere of the space, with the odour issues fully resolved.

“The site facilities team sent over an email to say how happy they were with the reception area unit. This had made a huge difference with the smell in the area.”
