UV Angel, a globally renowned company in pathogen control technology, has announced two new UV-C light devices to autonomously and continuously treat the air and surfaces for harmful bacteria, fungi and viruses.
UV Angel's newest products, UV Angel Air and the next-generation UV Angel Adapt, provide health care experts and others with the crucial tools for the fight against infectious diseases, including COVID-19.

Tom adds, "We are actively shipping our products to hospitals and military facilities throughout the country including a VA hospital in Pennsylvania and an Air Force Base Medical Center. While there are no environmental treatment technology silver bullets, it's critical we provide these healthcare workers with as many layers of protection as we can to help keep them safe and in the fight."
Infection prevention
Infection prevention is increasingly critical in health care settings, a fact brought into stark reality by the current global COVID-19 pandemic. UV Angel Air and the next-generation UV Angel Adapt help address concerns by using patented UV-C light treatment technology to automatically and continuously treat the air and surfaces.
"Many harmful pathogens are very sensitive to ultraviolet light," said Dr. Linda Lee, Chief Science and Medical Officer and National Environmental Health Expert at UV Angel.

She adds, "UV Angel Air can neutralize bacteria, fungi and viruses, including coronaviruses, traveling through the air, with applications not only in health care, but also in many commercial building and transportation environments including corporate offices, dental, education, airplanes, cruise ships, ride-share cabs, food service and more."
With a modern integrated design, UV Angel Air combines its proprietary UV-C air treatment system with standard in-ceiling lighting, requiring no staff interaction. Air is circulated through a sealed UV-C chamber, where it is treated with a high intensity UV-C light. The treated air is then returned to the room, creating a measurably healthier and safer environment.
