First to Market, Still Leading the Way

Tru-D SmartUVC is a leading ultraviolet disinfection system and is changing the way health care works by providing hospitals with leading-edge technology for terminal disinfection of health care environments.

Tru-D SmartUVC is the only smart UVC disinfection device on the market. Powered by Sensor360™ technology and Tru-D’s real-time data-tracking software application, Tru-D sets the gold standard of care for the health care disinfection market with innovative, high-efficiency capabilities. Tru-D is backed by data and clinical research accumulated over more than a decade by leading independent infection preventionists and epidemiologists across the U.S.

Data-driven and technology-inspired, Tru-D SmartUVC merges a 50-year history with the UVC germicidal industry with the advancing possibilities of today’s technology to lead the health care industry in the eradication of harmful pathogens – today’s superbugs – making health care environments safer and improving quality of care for hospitals and health care facilities around the world.

In 2019, PDI Healthcare acquired a majority share of Tru-D SmartUVC and together, Tru-D and PDI offer a layered approach to disinfection.

  • Tru-D was the obvious choice because we wanted something that was easy to use and reduced the probability of human error. We love the fact that our Tru-D robot doesn’t need to be repositioned to disinfect a specific area within a room.

    COO of Oneida Health Systems

  • We strive to ‘stay ahead of the curve’ when it comes to patient safety, so when evaluating disinfection processes, UVC application was a natural next step. Tru-D’s ability to assess the space and antimicrobial UV dosage was key in this decision.

    Chief Clinical Officer of Wray Community Hospital

  • Using an iPad outside the room, our staff turns on Tru-D remotely and begins a single disinfection cycle. The robot is able to compensate for room variables such as size, shape and contents to deliver the precise dose of UV energy needed throughout the entire room. The technology...

    Vice President of Operations at Archbold Medical Center

  • Tru-D is the only UV disinfection system on the market that has been evaluated for effectiveness in a randomized clinical trial — conducted by Duke and funded by the CDC. We are pleased to now be able to offer this infection prevention technology to our patients and to...

    Gar Atchison

    CEO of Frye Regional Medical Center

  • The Sensor360® technology set Tru-D apart. Rather than estimating the necessary UVC dose or moving a unit to multiple placements in a room, Tru-D is able to provide a measured dose of UVC light to provide disinfection from a single cycle in a single location.
