Ultraviolet light to sanitize surfaces
We’re live surrounded by microorganisms: bacteria, viruses, moulds, yeasts and protozoa.
Shortwave UV radiation is a very effective physical method for eliminating and inactivating these microorganisms.
The nuclei in the cells are subjected to a photolytic reaction that prevents their replication.
The germicidal effect of light is provided in the shortwave UV band below 320 nm.
UV irradiation is the most RELIABLE, ECO-FRIENDLY, EASY-TO-USE and LOW-COST method for sanitizing the surfaces in the spaces where we spend most of our time.
MAIN ADVANTAGES
Reliable
Scientific research has shown that ultraviolet rays can affect water and air-borne microorganisms, be they bacteria, viruses, fungi, algae, spores, or other (Note: before installing luminaires fitting UV sources, be sure to contact a qualified technician for the design stage).
Ecological
UV radiation is a physical, not a chemical, disinfection system. UV rays act on the nucleus of the cell that, when properly irradiated, is subjected to a reaction that prevents the reproduction process in a completely natural way (without using chemical disinfectants).
Low-cost
Disinfection with ultraviolet lamps is currently the most economical option offered by technology.
Design
The Disano group is happy to offer expert advice to designers when planning the space where the lights will be installed.
UV light: the ideal sanitization of all spaces
Highly frequented places can be sanitized with UV lamps.
UV rays trigger a photochemical reaction within the microorganisms damaging their protein structure to alter their DNA/RNA.
This makes them harmless and unable to replicate, preventing the spread of contagion, disease or damage.
Ultraviolet germicidal irradiation is a safe, proven and effective technology to eliminate microorganisms like bacteria, viruses, fungi, spores, mites and moulds.
It ensures bacteriologically controlled surfaces and can be used in luminaires for the bacteriological sanitization of:
- offices – schools
- waiting rooms – medical studios
- bars and restaurants
- shopping centres – shops
- gyms – locker rooms
- beauty salons and wellness centres
- hotels
- kitchens and public rest rooms
- common work areas
