Far-UVC Light Applications
Air

Continuous protection from airborne pathogens everywhere

We can prevent the next airborne pandemic before it starts

Uviquity’s Far UVC light engine integrates seamlessly using standard photonic packages.

>1.1 billion annual airborne infections in the U.S. alone

Aerosolized viruses and bacteria travel through the air we breathe, spreading in hospitals, classrooms and other public spaces. In the same way that water sanitation was improved in the 19th century, our far-UVC light can enable the continuous disinfection of occupied spaces to radically reduce the spread of airborne infectious diseases, like COVID, influenza, tuberculosis, measles and even the common cold.

Food

Pesticide-free crop protection

Food safety is a growing and intractable problem

Uviquity’s far-UVC light engine integrates seamlessly using standard photonic packages.

>$660 billion of food is lost annually during or just after harvest

We struggle to feed the world. Keeping people safe as we feed them is an equal challenge. Pathogens put pressure on every aspect of food security, from farm to table.  They require hazardous pesticides in massive quantities – they shorten shelf life – and they cause a lot of waste. Ten percent of climate change emissions come from food waste. Uviquity enables the use of far-UVC light, rather than chemicals, to control pathogens in growing, processing and packaging.  We can create a safer food system, end-to-end.

Water

Chemical-free water disinfection at any scale

Every ounce of water we drink can be disinfected and chemical-free

Uviquity’s far-UVC light engine integrates seamlessly using standard photonic packages.

>1.7 billion drink contaminated water daily

Chemical-based water treatments like chlorine and ozone leave harmful byproducts. Uviquity rapidly purifies water – without toxicity, waste, or changing the color or taste – while addressing the growing problem of chlorine-resistant microorganisms. Our solid state far-UVC light can be used in applications ranging from residential and consumer point of use to agricultural water purification to municipal and industrial water treatment.
