A New Spin on Compressed Air

When we clean out our computer or other electronics, we may turn to a can of compressed air. But did you know, what comes out of the can isn't air at all? It's a mix of flammable gases. If used incorrectly, it can even spray moisture onto your precious device. John W. Scherer set out to provide a better option, leading to the creation of Canless Air. His Canless Air System is simply air. It's toxin free, safe and -- get this -- a fraction of the price! One single Canless Air System can potentially replace over 5,000 cans of traditional canned air. It's sustainable pressurised air that takes up no more space on your shelf than a standard can of compressed air. We'll learn about the product, take it for a test drive, and speak with John about his innovative Canless Air.
