MANILA, PH. 15 SEPTEMBER 2021. Dyson has today unveiled a new hair tool for the Dyson SupersonicTM hair dryer, equipping stylers with a solution to smooth stray strands without extreme heat.
The new Flyaway Attachment harnesses the Coanda effect – a phenomenon first engineered for styling within the Dyson AirwrapTMstyler – to attract and lift longer hairs to the front, whilst pushing flyaways through the tress and out of sight.
Hiding flyaways increases strand alignment and enhances natural shine.
Emma Sheldon, Dyson Hair Care Category Director, said: “Our engineers are driven to rethink convention and our obsession with airflow led us to push the potential of Coanda after observing how stylists use a ‘brush and blow dryer’ technique to smooth flyaways. Traditionally, this skilled technique involves the stylist using a round brush to section and manage the hair, whilst directing airflow from the dryer to push the flyaways into the style and out of sight. We set out to find a way to innovate a way to mechanise this method for the everyday styler. The new Dyson Flyaway Attachment harnesses the phenomenon of Coanda to smooth flyaways out of sight, without exposing the hair to extreme heat damage.”
Dyson engineers gathered in excess of 1.14 billion individual pieces of professional styling data, captured from over 10,000 hours of professional stylist trials, observing more than 420 stylists across 80 salons around the world. Whilst stylists were observed using a round brush and blow dryer to smooth stray hairs, self-stylers seeking that same salon standard sleek finish were found to turn to high heat solutions after styling, such as straighteners with fixed plates. This final pass exposes the hair to unnecessary additional heat, increasing the risk of preventable damage – damaged hair is weaker and more prone to breakage, thus perpetuating the prevalence of further flyaways.
Jen Atkin, Dyson Global Styling Ambassador, said: “I think we can all agree that flyaway frustration is real! Nothing feels as good as that salon blow dry finish. The trick to tame annoying flyaways is a core skill for a stylist. However, we want our clients to now be able to get that same glossy finish at home. Dyson’s latest attachment does exactly that – it allows smooth seekers to get a super sleek finish, on their own, not just from the salon.”
Engineers tested a range of angles before reaching the optimum semi-circular curve that gives the Flyaway Attachment its distinct shape. Early prototypes feature a closed circular loop, yet through further testing, engineers identified the bottom of the circle to be superfluous. Dyson’s lean engineering philosophy fuelled further iterations to remove surplus material, without impacting performance.
The Dyson SupersonicTM Flyaway Attachment is a unique form. Dyson has a heritage of changing the shape of convention, spearheaded by the Dyson SupersonicTM hair dryer, a tool engineered to deliver a spectrum of styles across different hair types, without extreme heat.
Motor enabled and engineered for different hair types.
The Dyson SupersonicTM hair dryer is powered by the small, yet powerful Dyson digital motor V9, which spins at up to 110,000rpm – up to 6 times faster than other hair dryer motors. The size of the Dyson digital motor V9 allowed engineers to reposition the motor to the handle for optimum balance in the hand. Intelligent Heat Control measures air temperature over 40 times a second and regulates the heat. This prevents extreme heat damage, to help protect your hair’s shine. Air MultiplierTM technology amplifies air by three times to produce a high-pressure, high-veolcity jet of controlled air, for fast drying and precision styling.
After rigorously testing different hair types in our laboratories, we’ve engineered different attachments for the Dyson SupersonicTM hair dryer to style different types of hair. Dyson engineered attachments include the Smoothing Nozzle, Styling Concentrator, and Gentle Air Attachment.

[PH / 15 July 2021] — Today Dyson is launching its first 1.5kg lightweight vacuum, its lightest yet, and the only 1.5kg vacuum that doesn’t blow out dust or lose suction. Dyson engineers have considered and adjusted every element of the vacuum, including the cleaner head, cyclones, and battery, in order to provide owners with lightweight portability while maintaining cleaning performance. A five-stage, fully sealed advanced filtration system captures 99.99% of microscopic particles, including particles as small as 0.3 microns[3] – meaning the Dyson Micro 1.5kgTM expels cleaner air back into your home.
The Dyson Micro 1.5kgTM provides the ease of use and convenience of a lightweight vacuum cleaner designed for daily cleaning, while providing cleaning performance that provides superior pick up, filtration, and no loss of suction[4]. It marks the only lightweight vacuum that doesn’t compromise on cleaning and avoids the problems of other similar lightweight vacuums[5], which can have weak suction and also blow out dust. Others can also struggle to trap potentially harmful particles, compromising on the quality of air expelled back into homes.
“The problem with lightweight vacuums is simple: there is always a compromise. Some machines use weak motors and compensate for their poor airflow by making compromises in filtration, meaning that instead of capturing fine dust they potentially exhaust it back out into the air.
Since inventing cyclone technology and pioneering cord-free vacuums, we have continuously sought to do more with less – enhancing product performance while making our machines lighter and more efficient. By focusing on improvements in core technology – highly efficient Hyperdymium motors, lithium-ion batteries, cyclones and pick up systems – we’ve been able to develop a machine weighing only 1.5kg but capable of constant suction and expelling cleaner air,” says James Dyson, Founder and Chief Engineer. “The Dyson Micro 1.5kgTM is the only 1.5kg machine on the market that achieves 99.99% filtration[6], no loss of suction[7], and superior floor cleaning performance.”
Engineered for Asian users, the Dyson Micro 1.5kgTM is the perfect choice for those who like a lighter machine who like to clean often without compromising on pick up and filtration. The machine also features an all-new Micro FluffyTM cleaner head, which is only 207mm wide and 45% smaller than the Dyson V11 cleaner head[8]. With a direct-drive motor, soft-woven nylon and anti-static carbon fibre filaments, the machine is able to remove large debris and fine dust[9] from hard floors and crevices[10].
No compromise on Dyson technology
The new lightweight vacuum includes patented Dyson technology – concentrated in a compact format to ensure that owners do not compromise on performance. Starting with a Dyson HyperdymiumTM motor, Dyson engineers re-engineered the circuit board architecture and added thicker diameter copper windings to ensure optimal performance with the machine’s new lighter battery.
No compromise on filtration
At 1.5kg, the machine features Dyson’s smallest cyclone pack ever with just eight root cyclones, with carefully tweaked cyclone geometry to ensure they tune into the new airflow rate, while maintaining its efficiency in a small, slim package. As a result, the Dyson Micro 1.5kgTM has no loss of suction[11].
Dyson’s five stage, fully sealed advanced filtration system also captures 99.99% of microscopic particles, including particles as small as 0.3 microns[12]. Instead of shrinking the filter, Dyson engineers worked to miniaturise the bayonet fittings in order to make room for 1.6 metres of PTFE membrane (filter material) folded 122 times, so that this smaller filter delivers the same advanced filtration as our bigger cord-free machines.
Balanced for comfort
The machine has been ergonomically designed to ensure that its weight is balanced around our handle to feel even lighter in the hand. It features a two-button control for more comfortable, continuous cleaning. In hand-held mode, with the Worktop attachment, the machine weighs less than 1kg.
The Dyson Micro 1.5kgTM also comes with two tools – for cleaning up high, down low and anywhere in between. These tools include a Mini motorised tool to tackle hair and ground-in dirt and a Combi-crevice tool.
Other key features of the Dyson Micro 1.5kg™ include:
Easy, no-touch bin emptying: the straight, slim bin has an ejection mechanism with a rotary catch, to drive out dust in one smooth action. A silicone collar wipes down the mesh shroud to drive out dust without dirtying your hands.
Two button control: It has a power button instead of the classic trigger, meaning users can swap hands while navigating obstacles, making cleaning that bit easier.
Light, fade-free, energy-dense battery: enables up to 20 minutes of run time[13].
The wall dock: enables users to lean the machine into the recharging dock, ready for your next clean.
The Dyson Micro 1.5kg™ cord-free vacuum cleaner is priced at PhP19,900 and available from July 15 at Dyson Demo stores, as well as exclusive to Dyson’s LazMall flagship store on Lazada Philippines.

PH, 06.30.21 – Today, Dyson unveiled its latest generation of purification machines with new solid-state formaldehyde sensing technology, designed to capture ultrafine dust and allergens, even destroying potentially dangerous VOCs including formaldehyde[3]. Formaldehyde is a colourless gas pollutant, released by furniture and wooden products containing formaldehyde-based resins like plywood and fibreboard, insulating materials and do-it-yourself products such as paint, wallpapers, varnishes and household cleaning products[4]. Being 500 times smaller than particles the size of 0.1 microns, it is particularly difficult to capture and if left undetected can lead to prolonged exposure due to continuous release of airborne chemicals, known as off-gassing.
While other gel-based formaldehyde sensors can deteriorate overtime and are easily confused with other VOC pollution, Dyson’s new, solid-state formaldehyde sensor works alongside Dyson’s unique algorithm to precisely monitor formaldehyde levels- intelligently ignoring other gases which are detected by a dedicated VOC sensor.
Tireless and ever-dissatisfied, Dyson engineers have also re-engineered the machine airflow pathways to achieve fully-sealed HEPA 13 standard filtration – not only ensuring that no air bypasses the filter, but blocking any potential leak points through which dirty air might enter the airflow. This means Dyson’s latest purifiers remove 99.95% of particles as small as 0.1 microns[5]. Improvements of the airflow journey have made the Dyson Pure Cool Fomaldehyde 20% quieter[6], without any compromise on purification performance to reduce unwanted noise at home.

The Indoor Generation
Every day, humans breathe up to 9,000 litres of air[1], and even before the COVID-19 pandemic spent as much as 90% of their time indoors[2]. As our homes increasingly become spaces where we work and exercise as well as sleep and play, the quality of the air we breathe in all aspects of our routine is non-negotiable.
There are a number of indoor pollution sources, which release pollutants like PM10, PM2.5, VOCs, NO2 and formaldehyde into the air. Sources of pollution are present in all aspects of our daily lives, whether that be PM2.5 emitted when cooking, VOCs released from cleaning products or the continuous off-gassing of formaldehyde from our living room furniture. Tirelessly improving and constantly iterating, Dyson’s new Purifier Formaldehyde range reflects the latest technology in three core areas: sensing, filtration and acoustics.
Precise formaldehyde sensing and destruction
In addition to the existing particle, NO2, VOCs, temperature and humidity sensors, the integration of an intelligent formaldehyde sensor ensures precise sensing of the pollutant for the lifetime of the machine. Formaldehyde sensors can be gel-based and may deteriorate gradually as they dry out over time. Using an electro-chemical cell, the Dyson formaldehyde sensor does not dry out and its unique intelligent algorithm cross-checks data every second, selectively sensing to avoid confusion with other VOCs.
Dyson’s Selective Catalytic Oxidisation (SCO) filter continuously destroys formaldehyde at a molecular level[3]. The catalytic filter has a unique coating, with the same structure as the Cryptomelane mineral. Its billions of atom-sized tunnels are the optimal size and shape to trap and destroy formaldehyde, breaking it down into tiny amounts of water and CO2 . It then regenerates from oxygen in the air to keep destroying it continuously without ever requiring replacement.
Full-machine HEPA filtration[4]
In Dyson’s new purifiers, it’s not just the filter that meets HEPA H13 standard, but the whole machine. It captures 99.95% of particles as small as 0.1 microns[5] such as allergens, bacteria, H1N1 virus*, pollen and mould spores[6]. Dyson engineers took a forensic approach to achieving a fully-sealed machine, creating high pressure seals at an additional 24 critical points to prevent dirty air from bypassing the filters and carrying pollutants back into the room.
Dyson Purifier Cool: Acoustically engineered to be 20% quieter[7]
Dyson engineers increased efforts to further reduce the sound output of the Dyson Purifier Cool while maintaining purification performance. Through an iterative design, test, build process managed at the Dyson Malaysia Development Centre’s in-house acoustics chamber, the machine was re-engineered to be 20% quieter[8]. To achieve this noise reduction, Dyson engineers refined the overall airflow path by widening the aperture (slot in which the air exits the machine) and its geometry was improved. This reduced the amount of friction between the air and surface of the machine, resulting in less sound. Noise was reduced from 64 to 61 decibels at max fan speed.
Air Multiplier Technology
Using Dyson Air Multiplier™ Technology, the machine can project purified air to every corner of the room.[9] Auto mode enables the machine to maintain a preferred room temperate[10] and air quality levels, while the machine can be entirely controlled by the Dyson Link App and activated by voice control[11].
Engineered for real homes
Dyson Purifier machines are engineered for real spaces. The industry standard for testing air purifiers measures performance using a laboratory test conducted in a compact chamber 12m² in size, with a ceiling fan to circulate the air and one sensor inside the room measuring air quality. For more representative testing, Dyson’s POLAR test is based on a larger room size of 27m² with no added fan and uses eight sensors in the corners of the room and one sensor in the centre to collect air quality data.

MANILA, PHILIPPINES, 19 February 2021- Dyson today revealed the Dyson Digital Slim™ vacuum, a lightweight and powerful cord free vacuum engineered to deliver a barefoot clean. The new Dyson Digital Slim™ vacuum is both 20% smaller and 30% lighter[ii], with no loss of suction[iii], featuring a powerful Dyson Hyperdymium™ motor, highly efficient cyclones and carbon fibre filaments for fine dust pick up.
“To make a strong-performing vacuum it must effectively capture fine dust and small debris and maintain constant powerful suction. In our latest machine, we set about going even further, seeking to condense our proprietary cleaning technologies, making our lightest machine to date while refusing to sacrifice cleaning performance. Starting at the floor we’ve completely re-engineered our soft Fluffy cleaner head, introducing a new light and robust brush bar, giving a compact and lower profile cleaner head for tight spaces and improved edge pick up[iv]. The machine is then powered by our lightweight Dyson Hyperdymium motor and 11 precisely engineered cyclones which ensure no loss of suction[v]. The Dyson Digital Slim™ vacuum is both 20% smaller and 30% lighter, with no loss of suction,” said James Dyson, Founder and Chief Engineer.
Engineered with Asian owners in mind, home trials were conducted to better understand cleaning habits and the ergonomics behind cord free vacuuming. Dyson engineers discovered cleaning is more frequent in Asian homes and that the prevalence of hard floors demands superior fine dust pick up. In developing the Dyson Digital Slim™ vacuum, Dyson engineers focused on making a lighter machine more suited to frequent cleaning habits, with a shorter wand to complement those with a smaller physique, and with powerful suction to give a barefoot clean.
Technology Condensed
The Dyson Digital Slim™ vacuum has the high performing technology features of a Dyson V11 cord-free vacuum, yet it’s 20% smaller and 30% lighter. It features a 40% lighter soft roller cleaner head, a specifically designed motor from our range of Dyson Hyperdymium™ motors that produces the powerful airflow found in all our Dyson machines; 11 scrolled cyclones, unique to this machine with greater separation efficiency for less energy whilst ensuring the capture of fine dust. The Dyson Digital Slim™ vacuum also achieves 99.99% filtration of particles as small as 0.3 microns[vi] while maintaining no loss of suction.
The engineers were able to do this through some key advances:
A soft roller cleaner head that is 40% lighter, with a 20% lower profilei
Dyson engineers also stitched the carbon fibre filament and felt on the cleaner head together, rather than using adhesive, which enabled significant weight-loss. Despite the downsizing, the Dyson Digital Slim™ vacuum achieves similar pick-up as the V11 cord-free vacuum, picking up large debris and fine dust simultaneously.
The airflow path through the cleaner head was also re-engineered to create a more direct path for the airflow. Smoothing out sharp corners and creating a more direct and even route for the airflow from the floor into the neck of the cleaner head, which means better edge cleaning performance.
A lighter body and smaller wand
While the Dyson V11 cord-free vacuum cleaner’s main body is made of two pieces, the Dyson Digital Slim™ cord-free vacuum cleaner is one piece, with seals, rivets and the thickness of walls all paired down, to achieve weight reduction.
The Dyson Digital Slim™ wand is 15% shorter and 6.3 mm thinner[vii] than the Dyson V11 series.
Other engineering features in the Dyson Digital Slim™ vacuum include:
An adapted Dyson Hyperdymium™ motor
The motor spins up to 120,000rpm, creating powerful suction. Its ceramic shaft is cured at 1,600°C to make it three times harder than steel, yet with half the density.
11 scrolled cyclones
At 100,000g, the 11 scrolled cyclones have been redesigned to fit the machine and ensure they remove more dust and dirt from the airflow. A wider radius at the entry point reduces energy losses, scrolling air in at a less tangential angle to reduce air resistance. As the cyclones narrow, air is accelerated to create the centrifugal forces that capture fine particles.
Properly functioning cyclones are key to no loss of suction as it means less fine dust is pushed to the pre/post motor filters. Efficient cyclones topped with a powerful Dyson Hyperdymium™ motor generates one continuous airflow from the cleaner head pick up through the cyclones and filter out to the exhaust.
A powerful lightweight 3-in-1 cleaner[viii]: It cleans floors, mattresses and hard-to-reach areas[ix] with different attachments.
Its whole machine filtration captures 99.99% of microscopic particles as small as 0.3 microns, expelling clean air[x]. With an airtight gasket around the cyclone assembly and a pressurised rubber seal around the advanced filter, the whole system is fully sealed – preventing dust from leaking back into the air.
It’s intelligent, with an LCD screen that shows the cleaning mode, and remaining run time, as well as offering filter maintenance reminders and blockage reports. It has a better grip. The circumference of the handle has been made smaller allowing for an easier and more comfortable grip for people with smaller hands. The shape of the trigger has also been contoured for greater comfort for a finger.
Maintenance is easier as the machine has been engineered for smoother, easier dirt ejection. The brush bar, clear bin, combined pre/post motor filter, and light-up crevice tool are all washable.
The removable, fade-free, energy-dense battery is made up of five nickel-cobalt-aluminium battery cells that run for up to 40 minutes in eco mode on hard floors[xi], and up to 5 minutes in boost mode[xii]. The battery is also swappable, providing up to 80 minutes run time in eco mode[xiii].

]]>A love affair with airflow technology has been at the heart of Dyson’s engineering journey since the beginning. Starting with the DC01 in 1993, airflow first featured in Dyson vacuum cleaners within Dyson’s cyclonic technology, then, in Dyson fans and purifiers, engineering airflow to multiply and project air further.
Lastly, airflow was championed in Dyson’s hair care range to achieve the same styles at lower temperatures, maintaining hair health by reducing the reliance on heat. Airflow is a core part of Dyson’s DNA. In the words of James Dyson, “in order to fix it, you need a passionate anger about something that doesn't work well.” The Dyson story focuses on solving problems others ignore, reinventing the outdated and engineering the future – but airflow is a lasting romance.
Dyson Air Multiplier technology
It all began when Dyson engineers started looking into hair care back in 2012, investing £50 million into the development of Dyson’s first ever hair tool. Dyson engineers found that a powerful airflow could be achieved if air was taken into a motor and accelerated over an annular aperture – this is the iconic ring-shaped head that can only be recognised as Dyson’s first ever hair dryer, and in 2016, the Dyson Supersonic™ hair dryer was launched.
The traditional model and technology of the humble hair dryer had seen very little change since the 1960s. Traditional hair dryers often have a weak airflow and are powered by bulky motors, meaning they are slow at drying. So Dyson invented the Dyson digital motor V9, a motor which is up to eight times faster than conventional hair dryer motors, enabling the Dyson Supersonic™ hair dryer to move over 13 litres of air every second.
It took 25 variations of the annular aperture for Dyson engineers to fine-tune the balance between noise and performance. When engineers took James Dyson to the acoustic chamber to see the results of a pre-prototype rig, James believed the engineers had turned down the power of the machine to make it quieter. James put his hand in front of the air amplifier ring and was taken aback by the force of airflow. This soon became known as Dyson’s patented Air Multiplier™ technology.
Dyson Coanda technology
Just two years after the Dyson Supersonic™ hair dryer hit the shelves, Dyson revealed a new way to dry and style hair within one tool: the Dyson Airwrap™ styler. Launched in 2018, the engineering within the Dyson Airwrap™ styler once again adapted the format of traditional styling tools. The question on everyone’s lips was: how does the Dyson Airwrap™ styler curl hair with air? The answer: the Coanda effect.
What is the Coanda effect?
The Coanda effect is an aerodynamic phenomenon. Air, when propelled at the right speed and pressure, naturally follows an adjacent surface, pulling in the surrounding air. The Dyson Airwrap™ styler harnesses this phenomenon by creating a spinning vortex of air around the cylindrical shaped barrels of the tool. The barrels attract the hair through the airflow, encouraging hair to wrap itself around the barrel and curling it through the use of the air vortex.
It took in the region of 500 prototypes to perfect the curling barrels featured on the Dyson Airwrap™ styler. The first two initial development rigs for the Dyson Airwrap™ styler came as a pair – Dyson engineers had created them side by side and the two rigs were not to be separated, causing Dyson engineers to fondly nickname these two rigs Barbie and Ken after the popular fashion doll couple – a fitting detail for Dyson fans celebrating Valentine’s Day this year.

Dyson celebrates its core airflow technology this Valentine’s Day with the Dyson SupersonicTM hair dryer and the Dyson AirwrapTM styler proving the ideal gift for loved ones.
Powered by the Dyson Digital V9 Motor, both tools are engineered with Dyson’s unique airflow technology to achieve salon styles without extreme heat damage. The Dyson SupersonicTM hair dryer uses Air MultiplierTM technology for fast drying, while the Dyson AirwrapTM styler utilises the Coanda effect, an aerodynamic phenomenon, to achieve waves and curls together with bouncy blow dries.
Whilst many will turn up the heat this Valentine’s Day, Dyson’s latest hair care tool encourages users to turn down the heat. The Dyson CorraleTM straightener is engineered to allow the same styles to be achieved at lower temperatures, preventing hair from extreme heat damange and preserving hair health.
Engineered for different hair types, the Dyson SupersonicTM hair dryer is powerful and fast. The tool uses a fast but focused airflow, is engineered for balance in the hand, is quieter than others and intelligently controls the temperature to help protect hair from extreme heat damage. Dyson’s patented Air Multiplier™ technology means that the volume of air coming out of the hair dryer is 3x that going into the motor, giving the user the ability of fast drying and styling while reducing the reliance on heat, making it the ideal tool to gift this Valentine’s Day.
Unlike many other traditional hair dryers, the Dyson SupersonicTM hair dryer measures air temperature over 40 times a second to regulate temperature output. This prevents extreme heat damage, to help protect hair’s shine. The Dyson Supersonic™ hair dryer is priced at PHP24,500.00 from Dyson Demo Stores.
At the heart of the Dyson AirwrapTM styler comes a radical idea: harness Dyson’s digital motor to create a aerodynamic phenomenon known as the Coanda effect. The Coanda effect occurs when a high-speed jet of air flows across a surface and, due to differences in pressure, the air flow attaches itself to the surface. Air, when propelled at the right speed and pressure, naturally follows an adjacent surface, entraining surrounding air.
Taking advantage of this principle, Dyson’s team of aerodynamicists created a way to style hair using only air combined with heat. The result, whether choosing to curl, wave, smooth or rough dry hair, creates a natural look with a sleek finish, whilst helping prevent extreme heat damage, making the Dyson AiwrapTM styler the ideal gift for loved ones who love creating salon styles while looking after their hair.
The Dyson Airwrap™ styler is priced at PHP29,500.00 from Dyson Demo Stores.
Much like the Dyson Supersonic™hair dryer and the Dyson Airwrap™styler, the Dyson Corrale™ straightener features Intelligent Heat Control technology.
Suitable for all hair types, this unique styling tool features three precise temperatures, using a platinum sensor that measures the temperature 100 times a second. This technology communicates with a microprocessor, which in turn controls the heating system to deliver precise, accurate heat. Combined with Dyson’s 4-cell lithium-ion battery technology, the Corrale™ straightener also delivers cord-free performance, making it the perfect tool to gift loved ones who want to care for their hair by reducing heat damage without compromising on style.
The Dyson Corrale™ straightener is priced at PHP29,500.00 from our authorized Dyson stores nationwide.

Gift Edition Dyson Supersonic™ hair dryer Celebrate in style with the Gift Edition Dyson Supersonic™ hair dryer (Red/Nickel). Engineered for different hair types, the Dyson SupersonicTM hair dryer is powerful and fast. The tool uses a fast but focused airflow, is engineered for balance in the hand, is quieter than others and intelligently controls the temperature to help protect hair from extreme heat damage. Dyson’s patented Air Multiplier™ technology means that the volume of air coming out of the hair dryer is 3x that going into the motor, giving the user the ability of fast drying and styling while reducing the reliance on heat.
Unlike many other traditional hair dryers, the Dyson SupersonicTM hair dryer measures air temperature over 40 times a second to regulate temperature output. This prevents extreme heat damage, to help protect hair’s shine. |
Gift Edition Dyson Airwrap™ styler
Brighten your vanity desks with the Gift Edition Dyson Airwrap™ styler (Iron/Red). At the heart of the Dyson AirwrapTM styler comes a radical idea: harness Dyson’s digital motor to create an aerodynamic phenomenon known as the Coanda effect. The Coanda effect occurs when a high-speed jet of air flows across a surface and, due to differences in pressure, the air flow attaches itself to the surface. Air, when propelled at the right speed and pressure, naturally follows an adjacent surface, entraining surrounding air.
Taking advantage of this principle, Dyson’s team of aerodynamicists created a way to style hair using only air combined with heat. The result, whether choosing to curl, wave, smooth or rough dry hair, creates a natural look with a sleek finish, whilst helping prevent extreme heat damage, making the Dyson AirwrapTM styler the ideal gift for loved ones who love creating salon styles while looking after their hair. |
Do you know that the kitchen can be an indoor pollution hotspot from the appliances we have, to the methods we use and the food that we cook? Our Dyson Expert explains the impact of cooking on your indoor air quality and how to improve it.

From appliances, to the methods we use and the food that we cook, the kitchen can be an indoor pollution hotspot. Whether you’re cooking up a festive feast or baking for family and friends, preparing food can release a unique mix of pollutants into the air. Kitchen concentrations of ultrafine particles can often be 10 to 40 times higher after cooking and in some cities, it’s estimated that cooking contributes to 62 per cent of total PM2.5 pollution in homes.
Cooking appliancesThe combustion process emits ultrafine particles, which include oil droplets, steam from the water used to cook, ingredients and condensed organic compounds. Research has found that Nitrogen dioxide (NO2) levels are consistently higher in homes that cook with gas rather than electric stoves. It also indicated that levels were greater when cooking for longer periods of time. Electric stoves may not produce as much air pollution as their gas-powered counterparts, but particulate matter can be emitted from the food being cooked on the stove, regardless of the fuel.
Ovens are also pollution offenders, particularly self-cleaning variations, according to the 2001 California Air Resources Board study. As food waste is burned away, potentially harmful concentrations of particulate matter, NO2, carbon monoxide and formaldehyde are released into the kitchen air.
Ensuring that kitchen appliances such as ovens or stoves are fully vented, and are installed, used and maintained correctly can help to minimise this exposure. Furthermore, opening the window while you cook if the air outdoors is clean enough or using mechanical ventilation like a purifying fan can assist by filtering out pollutants.
Cooking method
The way that food is cooked can affect air pollution inside the kitchen. Oil-based cooking, such as grilling and frying food is generally more polluting then water-based cooking like boiling or steaming, as it generates more fine particles.
Odours released from browning food - like grilling meat or frying spring rolls - might smell appealing, but the compounds released during the cooking process that cause these smells, are actually a source of gas pollution.
Food typeThe type of food and cooking temperature also impact the amount of pollution released. Higher emissions are observed at higher temperatures, while ingredients with higher fat content have been found to give off more pollution.
The oil type used in cooking can affect pollutant levels and in general, oils with higher smoke temperature produce lower levels of particulate matter. Research indicates that olive oil is one of the worst offenders, releasing the highest concentration of particulate matter.
“Understanding indoor air pollution is the first step in empowering people to make educated choices in the kitchen to help reduce air pollution exposure," says Dyson Head Chef, Joe Croan. "Simple changes in routines such as the type and quantity of oil you use when cooking can have a positive impact in the kitchen.”

]]>AuREUS System Technology is the first ever Sustainability Award winner of the James Dyson Award 2020. Invented by 27-year-old Carvey Ehren Maigue. It is a new material, made from waste crop, which converts UV light into renewable energy.
]]>Carvey, inventor of AuREUS Technology System
We are delighted to share that young Filipino inventor Carvey Ehren Maigue from Mapua university has been handpicked by renowned inventor James Dyson to be the first ever global Sustainability winner at the James Dyson Award.
The James Dyson Award (JDA) is an annual international design award that celebrates, encourages and inspires the next generation of design engineers. The brief for entry is broad: design something that solves a problem. The best entries solve a real problem, are clearly explained, and show iterative development.
2020 was a record-breaking year for the James Dyson Award, which has now financially supported 250 promising inventions from young engineers and scientists around the world. Despite this year’s context, the Award received its highest number of entries, and the quality was exceptional – highlighting the ingenuity of young inventors. The two winners, who each receive £30,000, solve significant problems of global importance: women missing breast cancer screenings and sustainable methods to effectively generate renewable energy.
First ever global Sustainability winner – Carvey from the Philippines
AuREUS System Technology is the first ever Sustainability Award winner of the James Dyson Award 2020. Invented by 27-year-old Carvey Ehren Maigue. It is a new material, made from waste crop, which converts UV light into renewable energy.
The problem
Many renewable energy sources suffer from intermittency: wind power and solar power can only be generated in very specific environmental conditions. Solar panels mostly capture and convert visible light into renewable energy and must be facing the sun to do so. Current solar farms are only built horizontally, never vertically and often placed on prime arable farmland, meaning the land can’t be used to grow crops. Yet, there are thousands of windows and other surfaces that could be repurposed.
The solution
The James Dyson Award’s first ever Sustainability Award winner is tackling the challenge of how we could more effectively generate renewable energy from light and upcycling waste in the process.
AuREUS, invented by Carvey Ehren Maigue from Mapua University in Manila, the Philippines, is a material that can be attached to a pre-existing structure or surface to harvest UV light and convert it into visible light to generate electricity in a way that traditional solar panels can’t. Whether the sun is shining, or it is cloudy, Carvey’s material will still generate electricity as the particles in his material absorb UV light causing them to glow. As the particles ‘rest’ they remove excess energy and this ‘bleeds’ out of the material as visible light which can then be transformed into electricity. AuREUS has the potential to turn more solar energy into renewable energy than traditional solar panels and it can function fully even when not in direct sunlight. Current testing suggests that it can produce electricity 48% of the time, compared to 10-25% in conventional photovoltaic cells.
“AuREUS is impressive in the way it makes sustainable use of waste crops, but I’m particularly impressed by Carvey’s resolve and determination. Having failed to make the national stage of the Award in 2018, he stuck at it and further developed his idea – this will be a very important character trait as he embarks on the long road to commercialisation. I wish him every success because, as a farmer, I have always been concerned about covering fertile, food-producing, agricultural land in photovoltaic cells. Carvey’s invention demonstrates a convincing way to create clean energy on existing structures, like windows, within cities.”
James Dyson, Founder and Chief Engineer at Dyson.
Carvey first submitted his idea to the James Dyson Award in 2018 but did not progress to the Awarding stages of the competition. Then, his technology could only be applied to windows and used a chemical compound as the key ingredient in the substrate. 2 years on, with further R&D into applications and using upcycled waste crops, Carvey’s invention is the James Dyson Award’s first ever Sustainability Award winner. His persistence to improve his idea and learn from setbacks mirrors James Dyson’s ethos on failure – a key component to the design process fostered at Dyson.
After speaking to James Dyson, Carvey said, “Winning the James Dyson Award is both a beginning and an end. It marked the end of years of doubting whether my idea would find global relevance. It marks the beginning of the journey of finally bringing AuREUS to the world. I want to create a better form of renewable energy that uses the world’s natural resources, is close to people's lives, forging achievable paths and rallying towards a sustainable and regenerative future.”
