Sort of aerosol from Australia — one kind (5-8)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

ozone-friendly

'sort of aerosol' is the definition.
(aerosol that doesn't damage the ozone layer)

'australia one kind' is the wordplay.
'australia' becomes 'oz' (informal name for Australia).
'kind' becomes 'friendly' (similar in meaning).
'oz'+'one'+'friendly'='OZONE-FRIENDLY'

'from' is the link.

(Another definition for ozone-friendly that I've seen is " (Of aerosols) green".)

I've seen this clue in The Times.
