Healthcare
Wellness and longevity
According to the World Health Organization, 8.7% of hospitalized patients end up contracting a preventable hospital acquired infections (HAI), with an estimated 100,000 annual deaths. Most of these infections could have been prevented with proper regulation and sterilization of hospital devices, proper disinfecting of common surfaces, and even a simple implementation of proper hand-washing techniques.
For the past few decades, steam sterilizers- commonly known as autoclaves - have dominated sterilization needs in healthcare. However, with the rise in temperature sensitive materials used for modern devices, there is a clear and current need for a low-temperature sterilizing solution.
This is where our plasma-based ozone technology perfectly enters the market, as it is low-cost, low-temperature, portable, and has no toxic residuals! Our sterilization technique can help to sterilize materials that other sterilization techniques are not able to do, ultimately preventing HAIs and saving countless lives.
