Eliminate Industrial Odors with Science-Backed, Standardized Neutralization
Industrial manufacturers across a wide range of industries share a persistent challenge: unwanted odors. From wastewater facilities and asphalt plants to poultry processing and landfills, malodors are more than just unpleasant — they affect employee well-being, strain community relations, draw regulatory scrutiny, and ultimately impact profitability.
For decades, facilities relied on traditional odor control methods — masking, scrubbers, or oxidation — often finding them costly, unsustainable, or ineffective. Today, thanks to advanced odor neutralization with standardized, plant-based formulations, industries finally have a proven way to eliminate odors at their source.
Ecolo Odor Control Technologies Inc. has been at the forefront of this movement for more than 50 years. With AirSolution®, BioStreme, and AirStreme misting systems, Ecolo helps industries achieve science-backed, sustainable odor control that goes beyond masking to deliver real elimination.

The Science of Smell: Tackling the Root Cause
To understand why Ecolo’s approach works, we first need to understand what causes odor.
- Odors are created by Volatile Organic Compounds (VOCs).
- These airborne chemicals vaporize at room temperature, making them highly mobile.
- When inhaled, VOCs bind to olfactory receptors in the nose, sending electrical signals to the brain.
- The brain interprets those signals as a specific smell sometimes pleasant, but often offensive.
The only true way to eliminate odors is to stop VOCs before they reach the nose. That’s exactly what Ecolo’s molecular neutralizers are designed to do: identify, bind, and transform odorous VOCs into harmless, odorless compounds.
Why Traditional Methods Fall Short
While still widely used, older odor control techniques often create more problems than they solve:
Method
How It Works
Drawbacks
Masking Agents
Add strong fragrance to cover odors
Creates unpleasant odor mixtures, doesn’t solve root cause
Chemical Scrubbers
Force odorous air through a chemical bath
High capital cost, constant maintenance, chemical waste disposal
Thermal Oxidation
Burns off odor compounds
Energy-intensive, high carbon footprint, impractical for diffuse sources
The Ecolo Advantage: True Neutralization
Ecolo’s approach is fundamentally different. Instead of masking or burning, Ecolo neutralizes odor molecules at the source.
How it works:
1. Identification: Ecolo’s specialists identify odor-causing VOCs through air sampling or applying known formulations from their library.
2. Formulation: Standardized AirSolution® blends, crafted from plant-based oils, are tailored to neutralize specific compounds.
3. Application: Using AirStreme® or AMC misting systems, the neutralizer is dispersed as a fine mist, binding with odor molecules to convert them into non-odorous salts or water.
This is elimination, not masking — a permanent chemical change that removes odors altogether.
