The effectiveness of using UV-C light to destroy microorganisms such as bacteria and viruses has been scientifically proven
UR UV-C Disinfectant uses vertical strobes emitting strong UV-C light that is scientifically proven to destroy micro-organisms such as bacteria MRSA and coronaviruses like MERS and SARS that are very similar to structure of SARS-CoV-2 causing COVID-19. As high frequency damages their DNA/RNA codes, those pathogens are prevented from reproducing properly thus making the environment safer to work in.
UR robots are designed to execute tasks without human supervision and this function was crucial to development of UR UV-C Disinfectant. Deployment of UR robots in contaminated hospitals and care homes offers unparalleled reduction of human exposure to coronavirus.
UR UV-C Disinfectant also addresses the problem with shortage of cleaning staff needed to maintain safe environment for medical staff. Disinfection of hospitals and other medical facilities has direct positive impact on reduction of overall numbers of hospital acquired infections (HAI) and as a result it is expected to decrease the numbers of sick leave in public and private sectors.
UR UV-C Disinfectant robot is a fully autonomous device that enables effective disinfection and removal of microbiological contaminants. Designed specifically for protection of healthcare workers like doctors, nurses and support staff against COVID-19, it helps provide safe and virus-free environment allowing them to focus on taking care of the patients.
UV-C Light FAQs
UV-C refers to ultraviolet light with wavelengths between 200 – 280 nanometers (nm). Light in the UV-C wavelength can be used for disinfecting water, sterilizing surfaces, destroying harmful micro-organisms in food products and in air.
The UV-C Disinfectant Robot uses vertical strobes emitting strong UV-C light that is scientifically proven to destroy micro-organisms such as bacteria MRSA and coronaviruses like MERS and SARS that are very similar to structure of SARS-CoV-2 causing COVID-19. As high frequency damages their DNA/RNA codes, those pathogens are prevented from reproducing properly thus making the environment safer to work in.
Independent validation of the use of UV-C by the Centre for Infectious Disease Research and Policy is detailed in the link below.
The key point is made in the second paragraph, notably “adding a UVC device to standard room disinfection in high-risk rooms decreased the risk of subsequent acquisition of MDROs (multi-drug resistant organisms)”.

Automation using AI provides efficient, targeted, consistent, repeatable results and eradicates human error whilst at the same time negating the risk a human would be exposed to in a similar cleaning activity. Additionally, there is no scope for cross contamination.
Robots can be used whenever operational efficiency, consistency of sterilisation and a safer working environment are key components for a business. Examples include: hospitals, dentists, care homes, trains, buses, airports, transportation hubs, universities, schools, offices…
Hospitals use UV lamps to sterilise surgical equipment and the air in operating theatres.
Food and drug companies use UV lamps to sterilise their products.
UV light is widely used in water treatment facilities and this method of treating water is a lot more efficient than boiling water.
In the fishing industry they use UV light to get rid of the Listeria-bacteria.
The construction industry uses UV to get rid of mould fungus.
