VERTECO to make available AirCare device from Biozone Scientific Group
VERTECO, the region’s experts in smart washroom technologies, water conservation solutions, and smart water management, have confirmed their position as regional distributors of the AirCare device from Biozone Scientific Group.
The innovative product, which will be placed in busy public washrooms, changing rooms, lobby areas and other transient areas, uses ultraviolet plasma technology to kill airborne and surface contaminants. The system offers a natural solution to chemical-resistant infectious diseases and has demonstrated in numerous studies to be more than 99% effective at inactivating SARS-CoV-2 – the virus that causes COVID-19.
As well as helping to combat the spread of COVID-19 and other airborne viruses, bacteria, and fungi, the AirCare improves air quality and removes bad odors. The device works by drawing air in and treating it with both UV exposure and Plasma production, achieving an average of a 70% reduction in both surface and airborne bacteria – in even the busiest of spaces.
Regional distribution of the AirCare from Biozone Scientific Group marks the latest addition to VERTECO’s award-winning portfolio of Smart Washroom solutions. Their range of sensor-driven 3D IoT products can be found in washrooms across the Middle East, improving sanitization, hygiene, and overall customer washroom experience. As always, sustainability is key for VERTECO, and with the AirCare units additional environmental and cost-effective benefits – it costs less to run than a low energy lightbulb and reduces the need for harsh cleaning chemicals – the product is a natural fit for the company.
