The Greenhood is a two-in-one kitchen appliance that not only eliminates odors from cooking foods but also sanitizes the air. The Greenhood is perfect for people who are sensitive to the often potent smells generated by ovens and stovetops as well as the pollutants and allergens dangerously and undetectedly floating in the air.
Created as a collaboration between Italian kitchen-maker Snaidero and appliance-maker Falmec, the Greenhood employs similar technology found in air ionizing air-purifiers to achieve the latter. Even when not cooking, the Greenhood remains on to ensure the air is as clean and healthy as it can be. It features an LED leaf that turns from yellow to green to show when the air quality improves.
