Dysonhas just released its latest global study that examines the indoor air quality of the world’s homes. The company’s first Global Connected Air Quality Data project examined the indoor air quality from more than 2.5 million Dyson air purifiers, and the results are shocking.
The Dyson Global Connected Air Quality Data project looked into two different types of pollutant: PM2.5 and Volatile Organic Compounds (VOCs). The former refers to particles that are smaller than 2.5 microns, like pet hair, dust, ash and combustion. The latter are gas pollutants like formaldehyde that can be emitted from cleaning, cooking and products like furniture, deodorants and candles.
After analysing a year’s worth of data from over 2.5 million Dyson air purifiers around the world, the results showed that our indoor air quality might be dirtier and less hygienic than the outside world. The study found that UK air pollution exceeded the levels of outdoor air pollution and all but four countries exceeded outdoor PM2.5 levels for six months or more.

As we spend more time inside during the winter, the Dyson Global Connected Air Quality Data project found that this season was the most polluted globally. Around the home, windows are kept closed, candles are lit and heating with combustion is higher due to the colder weather, and this was reflected in the data with winter seeing the highest levels of pollution, and January being the most polluted month globally. Other results showed that indoor PM2.5 levels were highest in the evening when more people were likely to be home, with peaks between 7pm and 10pm in the UK.
After looking at the results, it’s clear that the indoor air quality in our homes isn’t as safe or hygienic as we think. These results in conjunction withDyson’s Global Dust Study, which found that cleaning and hygiene standards are slipping in the home show that the air around us while we relax at home could be making us ill and dirty.
