93% of the world’s children breathe toxic air every day
Children contribute the least to air pollution and yet they are some of the most vulnerable to its effects.
The abc of pollution: What’s particulate matter (PM)?
What can cause particulate pollution?
Almost all countries in the world are affected by particulate pollution but there are large differences in the levels of pollution across the world.
The quality of the air we breathe depends on a fine balance between how much particulate pollution gets into the air and how fast it is cleared out.
Where does particulate matter come from?
Forest fires/burning waste
Construction/demolition
Unpaved roads/fields
Cars/trucks
Factories/smokestacks

Launch of Otrivine Natural Daily Nasal Wash.
Otrivine Natural washes away airborne pollutants in 3 seconds* and reduces the effects of pollution in the nose when used regularly.
We believe that a healthy nose allows us to be at our best. It offers us protection and helps to naturally filter the air we breathe, with daily cleaning improving its effectiveness in filtering harmful particles.
Unfortunately, the risk the air poses to our health has never been greater.
Our noses are the first line of defence when it comes to pollutants and germs, helping us live healthier and it is the only way to bring warm, humidified, filtered air into our lungs. When the nose is irritated or congested, it loses its defensive power.
Otrivine Natural wants to care for and support your nasal health, helping to ensure your nose can protect you.
*Up to 49% of urban dust washed away in an artificial nose/laboratory model.
