WAIR creates a connected scarf against air pollution. It’s a fashion accessory, an efficient and comfortable protection as well as a prevention tool thanks to a jewel - sensor included in the scarf and connected to an application to provide individual and localized pollution levels. When too high, the user is alerted and can easily place the scarf in front of his face to protect himself while breathing normally.
WAIR combines aesthetics, technology and prevention to improve the daily urban respiratory comfort and it’s a fun way to raise awareness of the dangers of air pollution.
As active member in the FashionTech community , WAIR is the main organizer of the GREENATHON. It is a way to promote its values : innovative and connected fashion for sure, but sustainable and socially responsible as well.
