Technology Platforms

Six diffusion technologies and one integrated humidifier. Each turns oil into scent in a different way, and that decides which oils it handles, which formats it suits and how the product is maintained.

Six technologies, framed by the brief.

There is no universal best platform. Selection is specific to the model, formulation, configuration and agreed validation plan.

  1. Smart Particle Waterless Diffusion

    Patented technology that releases undiluted oil as a very fine mist, with no water and no heating. Works with almost all essential oils and natural fragrance oils. Established in wall-plug products and adaptable to larger-space designs.

  2. Micro-Nozzle Waterless Diffusion

    A vibrating plate pushes oil through micro-holes as a silent, fine mist. The most compact and cost-efficient of the waterless mist technologies.

  3. Pump Nebulizing Diffusion

    A small air pump draws oil from the bottle and breaks it into mist at a nozzle. No water, wick or heat, in tabletop, car, wall-plug and larger-space formats.

  4. Cold-Air Diffusion

    Moving air draws scent from a scented core, with no pump, water or heat. Passive and fan-assisted designs for cars, bedsides and personal accessories.

  5. Heat Diffusion

    A warmed stone or crystal surface lets a few drops of fragrance evaporate, with no water or flame. A ready-tooled decorative range for essential and fragrance oils.

  6. Ultrasonic Water-Based Diffusion

    Water with a few drops of oil becomes a cool, visible mist that also adds humidity. Available across a ready-tooled range of home, children's and car designs.

Selection starts with five questions.

To shape the brief, define the formulation, product format, installation context, maintenance expectations and the evidence the programme needs.

  1. What material or formulation must the product handle?
  2. What product format and user interaction are intended?
  3. Where and how will the product be installed or placed?
  4. What maintenance and service expectations apply?
  5. What evidence will the programme need before release?
