When an infectious outbreak occurs, rapid disinfection is essential to contain its spread. High-touch surfaces, medical equipment, and patient care areas can quickly become sources of transmission if not properly sanitised.
MUVi (Mobile UV Innovation) uses germicidal UV-C light to neutralise viruses and bacteria in outbreak rooms, emergency rooms, and other high-risk spaces. Its “disinfection booth” design allows fast, effective, and chemical-free cleaning that complements traditional hospital procedures.
Hospital-acquired infections (HAIs) remain common due to human error, outdated cleaning techniques, and resource limitations. MUVi addresses these challenges by ensuring areas are disinfected thoroughly and consistently, even in busy healthcare environments.
Why UV-C Light Is the Gold Standard for Disinfection
| UV Light Type | Characteristics | Effect on Microorganisms |
|---|---|---|
| UV-A | Tans skin, treats certain skin conditions | No germicidal effect |
| UV-B | Causes sunburns and skin damage | No germicidal effect |
| UV-C | Germicidal, viricidal properties | Disrupts DNA, halts replication, kills pathogens |
UV-C light penetrates the cell walls of microorganisms and damages their DNA, stopping replication and infection. It is proven effective against pathogens such as VRE, MRSA, C. difficile, and Acinetobacter.
Key Benefits of MUVi UV-C Disinfection
- Rapid results – Disinfects rooms and medical equipment in minutes
- Versatility – Customisable booth design for different equipment sizes, from wheelchairs to hospital beds
- Chemical-free safety – Leaves no residue and is safe for patients, staff, and sensitive devices
By adding MUVi to outbreak and emergency room cleaning routines, healthcare facilities can respond faster to infection risks, improve patient safety, and reduce the spread of harmful microorganisms. Viral and bacterial disinfection becomes more efficient, accessible, and thorough an essential part of modern infection control.
