Happy New Year from PuraAir: Preparing for Summer Odour Control Challenges
As we welcome the New Year, the team at PuraAir would like to extend our warmest wishes to all our valued clients and partners. The start of the year also marks the peak of the summer season, a time when warmer temperatures, increased building occupancy, and higher waste volumes can create unique challenges for odour control and hygiene management.
Summer heat accelerates the breakdown of waste, leading to stronger and more persistent odours. It also creates ideal conditions for flies and other pests, particularly in bin rooms, waste chutes, loading docks, and garbage storage areas. Without effective odour control solutions in place, these issues can quickly impact the comfort, health, and overall experience of residents, staff, and visitors.
In high-rise residential buildings, these challenges are often intensified during the holiday period. With more people spending time at home, garbage volumes naturally increase, placing additional strain on waste management systems. Communal areas such as lift lobbies, corridors, and waste rooms can be especially affected if odours are not properly managed, leading to resident complaints and unnecessary disruption.
This makes the New Year an ideal time to review your odour control and scenting requirements. Ensuring that existing systems are functioning optimally, and that solutions are appropriately scaled for summer conditions, can help prevent issues before they arise. Proactive odour management not only improves air quality but also supports hygiene standards, reduces pest activity, and helps maintain a pleasant living and working environment.
At PuraAir, we work closely with building managers, facility teams, and property owners to deliver tailored odour control and scenting solutions that address seasonal demands. From waste room and garbage chute treatment to fly control and ambient scenting in shared spaces, our solutions are designed to perform when conditions are at their most challenging.
Start the year with confidence. We encourage you to take this opportunity to assess your current odour control measures and ensure they are ready for the months ahead. Contact Rob Clarke from PuraAir on 1300 972 736 or 0147 714 268 today to schedule a summer readiness review or to discuss tailored solutions for your building. A proactive approach now can help prevent issues later and ensure your spaces remain fresh, hygienic, and welcoming throughout summer and beyond.

We wish you a safe, successful, and refreshing New Year and look forward to supporting you throughout 2026.
