At Tru-D® SmartUVC, we believe in the power of light—not just as a force of nature, but as a tool for smarter, cleaner spaces. July is UV Awareness Month, making it the perfect time to highlight the role of ultraviolet light and its growing use across a wide range of industries.
While most people associate UV light with the sun and summertime safety, UVC—one specific wavelength in the UV spectrum—has become an essential part of maintaining clean environments in countless settings.
Understanding UVC: The Science of Precision
UVC light refers to ultraviolet wavelengths between 200 and 280 nanometers. This range has unique properties that allow it to break down microscopic particles on surfaces and in the air. When applied properly, UVC systems like Tru-D® SmartUVC help support existing cleaning protocols by reaching shadowed areas and hard-to-access surfaces.
At Tru-D® SmartUVC, our systems are designed to deliver measurable, repeatable UVC energy, using real-time sensors to analyze room size, shape and contents — ensuring consistent coverage with every cycle.
Why It Matters
In today’s world, high standards for cleanliness are more important than ever. In any environment, maintaining a consistent and thorough cleaning process helps promote confidence and peace of mind for everyone who enters the space.
UVC adds another layer to that process — one that works behind the scenes as part of a comprehensive approach to cleanliness and operational excellence.
Leading with Light
For more than 15 years, Tru-D® SmartUVC has been at the forefront of UVC disinfection innovation. This UV Awareness Month, we celebrate how far the science of light has come — and how it's helping leaders in many industries create cleaner, smarter spaces.
