Question 1

How does activated carbon purifier work?

Accepted Answer

Activated carbon is highly porous at the molecular level. These tiny cavities trap odor molecules, moisture, and other airborne particles through a process called adsorption. Unlike traditional air fresheners that mask odors, charcoal eliminates them at the source—naturally, without releasing any chemicals.

Question 2

Are Auraami bags truly non-toxic and reusable?

Accepted Answer

Yes. Our bags are 100% natural, non-toxic, and completely BPA-free. We source premium activated charcoal from sustainable coconut shell sources. Reactivate your bag by placing it in direct sunlight for 2-3 hours once a month. This resets its absorption capacity, making one bag effective for up to 2 years.

Question 3

How long do Auraami bags last?

Accepted Answer

The lifespan of an auraami activated charcoal odour absorber depends on its size, carbon quality, and environmental conditions. High-quality coconut shell activated charcoal pouches typically last up to 18–24 months.
	To maintain performance, charcoal can be rejuvenated by placing it under direct sunlight for a few hours every 3–4 weeks. Sunlight helps release trapped moisture and odor particles, restoring its adsorption capacity. This makes activated charcoal a long-lasting and reusable natural air purifier for home use. Unlike plug-in air fresheners or spray-based products that require frequent replacement, charcoal offers a low-waste and cost-effective solution for continuous indoor air purification.
	For small enclosed areas like shoe racks, wardrobes, and cars, one charcoal pouch can remain effective for months before requiring sunlight reactivation.

Question 4

Why did Auraami purifier stop removing odour?

Accepted Answer

Each Auraami bag is designed to be effective for 12-24 months (up to 2 years) with monthly sun reactivation. Exposing the bag for a couple hours in direct sunlight every month is a essential for being effective.

Question 5

How do I recharge my charcoal bag?

Accepted Answer

Simply place your Auraami bag in direct sunlight for 2-3 hours once a month. The UV rays and heat refresh the charcoal's absorption properties. No heat, electricity, or chemicals needed. It's that simple.

Question 6

Is Auraami air purifier bag suitable for all spaces?

Accepted Answer

Absolutely. We have a solution to cater for all your odour related complaints in the house. 75g for cars and small spaces up to 60 sq ft, 200g pack for wardrobes and medium spaces up to 100 sq. ft., and 500g for larger living areas and washrooms. Choose based on the size and intensity of the space you want to freshen.

Question 7

What's your environmental impact?

Accepted Answer

Auraami products reduce plastic waste significantly. Traditional air fresheners create landfill waste every month; our single reusable bag lasts 2 years. They're made from natural jute and coconut shell charcoal, both biodegradable. No electricity means no carbon footprint from usage. Just empty the contents of the bag after 2 years in your plants and they will thank you.

Question 8

Is Auraami purifier bag really effective?

Accepted Answer

Definitely! We have a long list of happy customers. However , results take up to 2 days to start working, sometimes more depending on the odour level and intensity. Since we don't use any artificial fragrances, you may not immediately notice the change. But good things take time and last long!

Question 9

Do plants really purify indoor air?

Accepted Answer

Indoor plants are often promoted as natural air purifiers because of the well-known NASA Clean Air Study. While certain plants can remove small amounts of volatile organic compounds (VOCs) in controlled laboratory conditions, real-world indoor air purification in Indian homes works differently.

Most homes are not sealed chambers like laboratory environments. Air circulation, humidity levels, room size, and ventilation all affect how effective plants are at improving indoor air quality. To meaningfully reduce indoor air pollutants using plants alone, you would need an impractically large number of plants per room.

For everyday indoor air purification in India—especially in enclosed spaces like wardrobes, shoe racks, kitchen cabinets, and cars—plants are not always practical. That’s where solutions like an activated charcoal air purifier become useful, particularly for moisture control and odor absorption in confined areas.

Plants improve ambiance and aesthetics, but for targeted odor and dampness control, additional natural air purification methods may be required.

Question 10

Is activated charcoal safe for indoor air purification?

Accepted Answer

Yes, activated charcoal is considered a safe and chemical-free air purification solution when used properly. Unlike synthetic air fresheners that release fragrance chemicals into the air, activated charcoal works through adsorption—trapping odor molecules, moisture, and certain airborne pollutants within its porous structure.

A natural activated charcoal air purifier made from coconut shell carbon does not emit fragrance, toxins, or harmful residues. This makes it a suitable option for:
Homes with children
Pet-friendly households
Wardrobes and storage cabinets
Cars and enclosed vehicles
Damp indoor spaces
	Because it does not mask odors but absorbs them at the source, activated charcoal is often used as a natural alternative to chemical air fresheners and spray-based deodorizers.
	For indoor air purification in humid Indian climates, activated charcoal is particularly effective in reducing moisture-related smells and preventing musty buildup.

Question 11

Can activated charcoal remove car smell in summer?

Accepted Answer

Yes, activated charcoal can help reduce car smell in summer, especially odours caused by heat, trapped moisture, food particles, and VOC's released from car interior.

During Indian summers, high temperatures inside parked vehicles can intensify:
Synthetic material fumes
Damp seat odors
AC vent smells
Sweat-related odor buildup

A charcoal odor absorber for car use works by adsorbing these odor molecules rather than masking them with fragrance. Because it does not release chemicals, it provides a safer alternative to hanging air fresheners or dashboard sprays.
	For best results, place an activated charcoal air purifier in cup holders, under seats, or inside door pockets. Regular sunlight reactivation helps maintain effectiveness during peak summer months.
	For drivers sensitive to strong fragrances or prone to motion discomfort from artificial scents, charcoal offers a natural and chemical-free solution for car air purification.
