 Real Simple magazine offers advise from energizing your life, ultimate guides, gifts, clothing advise and home solutions.   In their May 2011 issue,  Real Simple offers the solution – “Speed Clean Your Freezer In 20 Minutes”.  They featured FRIDGE IT activated charcoal odor absorbers from Innofresh as a “secret weapon and top pick” for getting the job done.   “Fridge IT cube fights tough odors (and keeps ice from tasting funky) for up to six months”.

Thank you to Real Simple magazine for sharing these tips as well as so many other great features and articles.    For more information about Fridge IT, Innofresh Products and our line of special ventilated, activated charcoal odor eliminators, please visit us at our website at www.innofresh.com.

Fridge IT activated charcoal odor eliminators also works equally amazingly all around the house including closets, storage, under sinks, trash areas, musty cabinets, stinky diaper pails, dorm rooms and so much more.   The secret is in our special  high grade activated carbon that we use and our advanced porous process.  Beats baking soda!

We are often asked about the difference between regular charcoal and activated charcoal -  “Does activated charcoal (or activated carbon) really work better than regular charcoal briquettes used on the barbeque grill to absorb and eliminate odors?”.

The answer is a big YES.   And even more importantly is the safety of not using ordinary barbeque charcoal.  Activated carbon or activated charcoal is actually special oxidized charcoal that has gone through a pretty extensive process which significantly increases the microscopic pores that attract and absorb odors.  Click here for a more detailed description of activated charcoal at this link -

Safety – This is something very important. Another distinction is that, in addition to not being as “pure” or oxidized as activated carbon, charcoal briquettes generally have other chemicals added to them to bind and make them combust better for use in grills. This is another reason we do not recommend charcoal briquettes for eliminating odors to avoid cross contamination with chemicals.
This all adds up to superior odor control performance compared with other products.    For more information, please visit our web site at www.innofresh.com and learn more about our popular FRIDGE IT and Innofresh fragrance free activated carbon odor absorbers and how to use them effectively.

All our products are proudly manufactured in the USA.

 

Regular Charcoal vs. Activated Charcoal as an odor eliminator

Mark Twain

Why use activated charcoal?  Our readers and customers ask “does regular charcoal work as an odor eliminator?”   I’d like to share some additional information on this topic of Activated Carbon or Activated Charcoal and explain why this material is such an effective odor eliminator for a wide range of odors including cigarette smoke, moisture odor, food, pet, footwear and so many other musty household odors.

For even more detailed information about how activated charcoal works, link here activated charcoal -  another blog entry where I talk about the difference between charcoal and activated charcoal (used interchangable with activated carbon).     We hope that it helps our readers understand the powerful difference and safety issues between ordinary charcoal used for grilling and specialized activated charcoal that is manufactured as an extemely effective fragrance free odor eliminator.  Keep your charcoal briquettes for grilling and use activated charcoal for eliminating odors.  Did you know that activated charcoal is even more effective in eliminating refrigerator and freezer odor than baking soda.

So, why the photo of Mark Twain above?   Here is where Mark Twain comes in to explain the difference between charcoal and activated charcoal.
“The difference between the “right” word and the “almost right” word is the difference between “lightning” and “lightning bug”  
- Mark Twain

In other words,  when it comes to eliminating odors,  make sure you look for the important word “activated”.  You’ll find this term “activated” in all Innofresh and FRIDGE IT odor absorbers to describe our “VAT” technology – Ventilated activated charcoal.  It’s what makes the difference.    For safer and more effective activated charcoal odor eliminators,  look for the original FRIDGE IT  and Innofresh brands.  Visit our web site to learn more about our products and also for fast and easy on line shopping  www.innofresh.com
