Purified Environments Launches Health-First Solutions for Millions Impacted by Mold-Contaminated Buildings

California company raises a health flag warning for homeowners, renters and landlords

Goleta, California – Mold isn’t just unsightly or inconvenient—it’s making people sick. As mold-related health concerns grow, Purified Environments is leading the way with advanced, science-based services that don’t just fix properties—they help people feel better in their homes and workplaces.

Understanding the Health Risks of Mold Exposure

The science is clear: mold and other indoor contamination due to water damage isn’t just unpleasant—it’s dangerous.

• An estimated 25% of people are genetically predisposed to mold-related illness, including Chronic Inflammatory Response Syndrome (CIRS).
• 12% of the population experiences allergic reactions to mold—including rashes, congestion, chronic fatigue, brain fog, and respiratory issues.
• Prolonged exposure to toxic mold (mycotoxins) has been linked to neurological damage and chronic inflammation.

A Science-Led Mission to Improve Public Health

Founder Skip Jankoski brings a unique blend of biotechnology, healthcare, and technical expertise to the mold industry. As a Senior Trainer and member of the President’s Council for NORMI (National Organization of Remediators and Microbial Inspectors), he’s helping raise national standards and reframe mold remediation as a critical public health issue.

“We’re at a turning point,” says Jankoski. “Science, innovation, healthcare and public awareness are finally aligning—and we have a responsibility to act. This work isn’t just about walls and ceilings. It’s about how people feel in their own homes and communities.”

In a recently published article, Jankoski urged the industry to shift toward evidence-based remediation, calling for widespread education and the use of advanced diagnostics, protocols, and technologies to reverse mold and microbial contamination, delivering safer, cleaner, healthier environments that support wellness and recovery.

“We’ve seen it time and again—when people receive effective remediation and advanced decontamination of their indoor environments, they begin to feel better,” says Jankoski. “This work truly changes lives.”
