We offer an extensive range of Philips UV-C lamps that can be integrated into disinfection luminaires and equipment of all sizes to disinfect air, surfaces and water. We have a proven track record of developing innovative UV-C solutions that are optimized for the application and work closely with manufacturers on design-in.
We also offer a range of Once BioShift® UV-C germicidal chambers for disinfecting equipment. Resembling an industrial microwave, objects that do not qualify as medical devices can be placed in the chamber for speedy disinfection, so they can be reused safely.3 The chamber kills a majority or viruses during the recommended 5-minute disinfection cycle.4
Together with our customers we are developing new solutions that will help shape the future of UV-C disinfection. Please join us on this exciting journey to co-create custom disinfection solutions that best meet your needs and applications. From niches such as large objects, specialized rooms/areas to many other new potential applications.
How UV-C radiation can help in reducing health risks
Hospitals and healthcare institutions are working around the clock. Our lamps with UV-C radiation cannot treat people directly, but they can have a meaningful contribution.
The essential importance of light in these challenging times
Harry Verhaar explains why lighting should not be taken for granted and is an essential industry in times of crisis.
Unleashing the power of ultraviolet light
Signify is harnessing the beneficial germicidal and antiviral properties of UV-C lamps to aid in the disinfection of hospitals, schools and more
UV-C products present minimum risk when used by professionals who know how to use them. They must shield their eyes and skin to avoid light damage and severe injuries to the eyes and skin.
At this moment, none of our UV-C products are certified or approved under any applicable laws as a medical device and as such, Signify and/or any of its group companies do not currently intend for them to be used as medical devices anywhere in the world.
