‘CW Design Build’ Cover Story- Ankur Parikh, Director at Alfaa UV on UVGI Disinfection

Disinfection

Surface disinfection with ultraviolet C (UVC) light is gaining prominence the world over, especially in hospitals, airports, gymnasiums, and hotels. Floor scrubbing UV robots and UV towers are preferred over conventional disinfection for their speed and effectiveness, says Ankur Parikh, Director, Alfaa UV, a company offering ultraviolet germicidal irradiation (UVGI) solutions for HVAC, water purification, and surface disinfection.

Alfaa’s STERO 360 UVC sterilizer offers real-time protection against microorganisms. That said, he cautions, “Since there are some limitations to UVGI, mainly effects of direct exposure on skin and eyes with prolonged exposure, the use of UVGI disinfection on open surfaces is recommended during unoccupied hours. However, steadfast growth in research and development [has helped] maximize the effectiveness and safety of UVGI, including ergonomic product design, strategic placement of the disinfecting unit and increased awareness about safety and usage techniques.”
