BRIIV 2 PRO

s you unbox the Briiv 2 Pro, a piece of paper says: “Hello. I am Briiv.” In my head it’s in Groot’s voice, because this is beautifully organic-looking for an air purifier. But although it looks alive, it isn’t. Air is pulled down through a layer of reindeer moss (a preserved lichen), a disc of coconut fibres and then a folded fabric filter.
You get four of the paper filters with it, which is a year’s worth of filtration, and then replacements cost £35 a year. The company is committed to the circular economy and repairability: if you break the glass, for example, you can order a spare for just £25.
