UVC Solutions for Healthcare

The healthcare sector has a strong focus on hygiene and infection prevention. Proven UVC technology can support existing cleaning and disinfection procedures and at the same time help reducing the microbial burden in critical areas.


Proven technologi

UVC is a documented technology that effectively inactivates bacteria, viruses, and other microorganisms on surfaces, in liquids, and in the air. The technology operates without the use of chemicals and can therefore be integrated as a supplement to existing hygiene procedures. UVC disinfection can contribute to a healthier working environment by reducing staff exposure to chemicals while supporting the healthcare sector’s efforts to reduce resource consumption and carbon emissions.

Learn how an automated UVC disinfection solution can reduce chemical consumption, lower your carbon footprint, save time, and ensure consistent disinfection quality.

Applications

At Natdis, we develop and manufacture UVC solutions for the healthcare sector with a strong focus on operational reliability, ease of use, and user safety. UVC technology can be applied in a wide range of healthcare environments where high hygiene standards and documented processes are required.
 
The technology is used in a wide range of healthcare environments, including:

Patient rooms and treatment areas

Patient rooms and treatment areas are among the environments where high standards of cleaning and disinfection are essential. UVC disinfection is particularly relevant in areas with high patient turnover or where additional disinfection is required between patients.

 

UVC solutions can be used as a supplement to routine cleaning and help ensure a consistent level of disinfection.

 

Automated UVC disinfection provides a documented disinfection process without the use of chemicals and eliminates the risk of errors associated with manual disinfection procedures.


Outpatient departments and medical practises

In outpatient departments, consultation rooms, and medical practices, the same facilities are used by multiple patients throughout the day. UVC disinfection can help minimize the spread of infection by reducing the microbial burden on surfaces and within rooms between treatments or outside normal operating hours.

Solutions are tailored to specific requirements and may consist of mobile and/or fixed installations.


Isolation areas and infectious disease units

When managing infectious diseases, additional disinfection is essential as a supplement to existing procedures.

 

UVC technology can be used to disinfect patient areas after use and help reduce the microbial burden before the rooms are returned to service.


Pharmacy an hospital pharmacy facilities

Hospital pharmacies and pharmaceutical facilities operate under strict requirements for hygiene, traceability, and microbiological risk control. The handling of pharmaceuticals, sterile products, and raw materials requires stable processes in which the risk of contamination is minimized throughout the workflow.

 

UVC technology can be integrated into existing hygiene and quality procedures and contribute to the disinfection of surfaces, materials, and other critical areas.

 

See our hospital pharmacy case study for a practical example of how UVC disinfection can support disinfection processes without the use of chemicals while reducing environmental impact and supporting ESG initiatives.


Material transfer and zone transitions

The transfer of materials between dirty and clean zones often requires strict hygiene controls and management of microbiological contamination risks. UVC disinfection can be used to disinfect cabinets, trolleys, containers, packaging, and other equipment before entering clean areas.

 

UVC tunnels can be integrated into logistics workflows and provide a consistent and documented disinfection process without the use of chemicals.

 

At Region Zealand, a specially developed UVC tunnel is used to disinfect supply cabinets transferred from dirty to clean areas, achieving up to 99.99% disinfection of both cabinets and components.

Hospital beds and matress washing

Hospital beds and mattresses require effective cleaning and disinfection to maintain high hygiene standards and prevent the spread of infection. UVC disinfection can be used as either a supplement to or an alternative to traditional steam- and chemical-based disinfection methods.

 

UVC solutions can be integrated directly into existing washing systems and contribute to a documented disinfection process. At the same time, the method can reduce carbon emissions and the need for chemicals without compromising hygiene. Third-party testing has demonstrated up to a 99.99% reduction of relevant pathogens, including MRSA.

Flexible solutions with Move-C

Many healthcare environments have changing disinfection needs. In such cases, mobile UVC solutions can be an effective tool.

Move-C has been developed for professional use and allows disinfection capacity to be moved between different rooms and departments as needed.

 

The unit is equipped with predefined programs, alarms, and PIR/LIDAR sensors, ensuring a user-friendly and safe solution for daily operation.

User safety is a fundamental part of every Natdis solution. Therefore, our UVC systems are equipped with safety features such as:

  • PIR/LIDAR sensors
  • Door interlocks
  • Visual and audible alarms
  • Automatic shutdown if someone enters the treatment area
  • Operational monitoring and status control

These features help ensure that the technology is used safely in healthcare environments.
