Kolkata, Mar 21 (IBNS): With over 80 years of strong heritage in product innovation and creating new categories in the country, Dettol has been consistently ranked amongst the most trusted brands in the country.

Dettol has further strengthened its legacy of product innovation and commitment towards improving the health and hygiene of consumers by launching a solution for the growing menace of air pollution.

A 2015 WHO report had revealed that 13 of the 20 most polluted cities in the world are in India. Particulate matter (or small airborne particles) is among the most detrimental of these pollutants. Studies link it with increased rates of chronic bronchitis, lung cancer and heart disease.

Air pollution can potentially cause some dangerous allergies as well, including coughing, rhinitis, asthma, etc. Whether on a motorcycle or are just out for an evening jog, air pollution can pose a serious threat to a person’s health.
