“We are the neutral interface between your OEM UV system planning & engineering team (The Idea) and your current manufacturing or future suppliers”
Disinfection and sterilization are both decontamination processes. While disinfection is the process of eliminating or reducing harmful microorganisms from inanimate objects and surfaces, sterilization is the process of killing all microorganisms.”
„Sanitizing is meant to reduce, not kill, the occurrence and growth of bacteria, viruses and fungi. Disinfecting a surface will “kill” the microscopic organisms as claimed on the label of a particular product.
- In the UVC OEM business every day new ideas of a new UVC (or UVA+UVB medical field) applications are created
- The idea first, the application and customer end-user benefit in mind, a new application unit needs to be designed.
- We are a group of neutral consulting experts covering the whole variety of UVC applications, from air to water to special advanced oxidation treatments and more , with traditional technologies and also new LED technologies.
- The experienced expert team is offering consultancy from the OEM unit itself, to ballast-lamp driver usage and defining quality system parameters, to project management and finding best solution how to go to market – with an additional financial pros and cons evaluation, this can be the best way of an independent consultancy before big binding financial decisions will be made.
- Our consultancy is performed virtually via Skype, GoToMeeting or other internet tools, as well as on-site support at your preferred location.
- Our team can support our global OEM customers, as we are based in different locations in the world, from Switzerland, to Germany, USA and Canada.
- Highest private confidentiality is guaranteed
What does this mean?
- To explore pros and cons, potential business plans and markets
- UV Systems (UVC) drinking water, waste water, special application in air, surface and water
- UV lamp science Technology towards point of use and application, (UVA-UVB-UVC)
- UV lamp-ballast-application (UVA-UVB-UVC)
- UVA-UVB Medical applications
- Quality Management, ISO newest standards, process and workflow, BOM definition and validation of systems as well as country regional certification processes
- Initial confidential approach
- Due diligence layout in terms of a production and marketing company
- Financing or support via capital venture companies
- Full legal and financial auditing advice and support
