During CES this year, Korean startup company Mosslab introduced a look at the unique Moss Air device, which is progressive and exactly as described by its namesake. It uses moss in various functions to purify and humidify the air as it is able to shoot outwards and internally rehydrate the plant.
Visually, it works as a captivating small terrarium that can sit on users' desks. The brand explains that it converts moss to carbon dioxide and then back to oxygen whilst also removing small dust from the air. Additionally, the MOss Air can effectively break down VOCs, which are volatile organic compounds into sugars as food. It is also easy to replace and install with a compartment lit by LED under the clear cover.
