HO CHI MINH, Vietnam, Dec. 9, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- Indoor air pollution is an urgent concern for Vietnamese families. The country has over 77 million registered motorcycles—one of the highest ownership rates in the world—with an estimated 72.8 % of the population relying on them for daily transportation.

This heavy reliance on motorcycles is fueling urban air pollution. In 2023, Vietnam's average PM2.5 levels were nearly six times the World Health Organization's annual guideline. In Hanoi, traffic alone contributes up to 96 % of PM2.5, 92 % of carbon monoxide, and 87 % of nitrogen oxides emissions, most from motorbikes. Families living near busy streets face these pollutants indoors, creating a hidden but serious health risk.

Shielding Homes from Urban Traffic Pollution

Levoit, the leading air purifier brand in the United States and other countries, encourages families to protect the air inside their homes.

"Street pollutants can persist indoors, affecting air quality long after they form outside," says Oscar Mei, Regional Business Director, Asia Pacific, VeSync.

"Our purifiers actively remove these pollutants, helping families maintain fresh, safe air at home."

Levoit purifiers feature advanced 3-stage filtration:

• Pre-filter: Captures large particles like dust, lint, and hair
• HEPA filter: Removes 99.97% of fine particles including smoke, mold, viruses, and bacteria
