August 2021: Acuity Brands, Inc. announced that its Care222 filtered far-UVC module with patent-pending dosing electronics is the first germicidal UV (GUV) source in the wavelength range 200-230 nm (i.e., “far-UVC”) to be UL LLC Certified to meet U.S. and Canadian standards for germicidal equipment for use in occupied spaces. When properly installed and administered, the module is in the Exempt risk group for photobiological hazards, as described in the IEC 62471:2006, Photobiological safety of lamps and lamp systems.
May 2020: Healthe company that manufactures UV Sanitization and Circadian Lighting products built a new technology-based UV-LED troffer light and launched to prevent the spread of COVID-19. This lighting will help remove all bacteria and viruses from the body and sanitize as per the source. It includes three types of tools such as cleanse downlight radiation, purify portal and air sanitizing tools with troffer service.
May 2020: German research institute the Ferdinand-Braun-Institut (FBH) and Technische Universität Berlin (TUB) have developed UV LEDs emitting UV light that is safe to the skin. It will be used for disingection in the hsopitals. According to the FBH, the light does not penetrate into the living layers of the skin because of the high degree of absorption. It is therefore expected that the skin will not be harmed at all or will be damaged so little that the natural repair mechanisms compensate for the effect.
