CASE STUDY: Air Purification Project for Magyar Suzuki Corporation, Hungary

November 7, 2025 | Effy

Project Overview

Magyar Suzuki Zrt. has been present in Hungary since 1991 as a subsidiary of Suzuki Motor Corporation, and since the launch of the Esztergom plant in 1992, it has become a key player in the European automotive industry. Currently, Vitara and S-CROSS models are manufactured in Esztergom, exclusively with hybrid drive for the European markets. The Esztergom plant is Suzuki Motor Corporation's only manufacturing base in Europe. The models manufactured here are exported to 123 countries on 5 continents. To support its employees, the company operates a large kitchen and dining facility, where effective kitchen exhaust purification is essential for both environmental compliance and employee comfort.

Challenge

Magyar Suzuki Corporation was seeking a highly efficient and sustainable solution to ensure its kitchen exhaust was pollutant-free, environmentally compliant and of appropriate air quality. The goal was to replace traditional bag filters with a consumable-free system that could achieve at least 90% purification and deodorisation efficiency.

Solution

To meet Suzuki’s need for an efficient and sustainable kitchen exhaust solution, AirQuality Technology provided its FKE-UV-G Series — a compact, all-in-one system that combines electrostatic filtration and UV photolysis to remove both grease and odour in a single step.

This consumable-free system reduces long-term maintenance, while its pull-out vertical UV modules simplify servicing in tight spaces. The high-performance UV lamps, built with durable quartz and protective coating, offer over 12,000 hours of effective operation. For enhanced purification, the unit can also be equipped with rear activated carbon plates.

Engineered for industrial kitchens, the FKE-UV-G supports intelligent control, real-time monitoring, and fan linkage. Its weather-resistant housing allows flexible indoor and outdoor installation, delivering reliable air quality performance and ensuring regulatory compliance with minimal upkeep.

Result

The system achieved a 91.9% odour reduction, as verified by the VDI 3880:2011 olfactometry procedure. This significant improvement in air quality, combined with low maintenance costs, fully met the client’s expectations and contributed to a cleaner, healthier working environment.
