Focus Areas
Susan Blanchet is the CEO and Founder of Origen Air. Origen Air’s mission is to create biophilic rooftop oases that metabolize toxins and purify indoor air, resulting in improved indoor air quality. Their purification process removes harmful airborne toxins, pollutants, and disease-transmitting particles from indoor environments. By collaborating biotechnology with HVAC systems, they enable the recirculation of indoor air, reducing the need for excessive air exchanges for improved ventilation. Origen Air focuses on producing efficient and sustainable living air purifiers using genetically modified plants that are 92x more effective at removing toxins from the air, making a significant impact on indoor air quality restoration and protection.
