UV torches
Our UV handheld torches are very useful for disinfecting surfaces and objects using ultraviolet light.
In addition to being very light, they are very powerful, and with a few seconds they already produce a significant germicidal effect on surfaces where UV light is applied. They also do not produce any type of residue and do not require any maintenance except for the change of UV lamps.
We can custom make these UV torches according to requirements. In this way we ensure that its function is optimal for each use that you want to give it.

Germs
Types of microorganisms
Both bacteria, viruses, protozoa and fungi or yeasts, whether pathogenic or not, are vulnerable to ultraviolet light or UVGI radiation.
These microbes are largely responsible for or spread of various diseases, such as: the flu, gastroenteritis, salmonellosis, etc.
In addition to these more common germs, other more dangerous ones are sensitive to UV radiation, like the cause of diseases such as anthrax or cholera.
Because of this, the use of a germicidal radiation system directly impacts the quality of life of people where microbes can develop.
Some examples: laboratories, hospitals, food handling, medications …
