illumiPure Receives Worldwide Patent on Innovative CleanWhite® LED Disinfectant
Houston-based technology manufacturer recognized for unprecedented antimicrobial LED lighting solution to disinfect surfaces and improve health
HOUSTON, October 7, 2022 – illumiPure, an innovative technology manufacturer specializing in healthy building solutions, received a worldwide patent in March 2022 for their disinfecting LED white light, CleanWhite®. The innovative product is the only white light-based disinfection device that can provide safe, continuous, and rapid sanitization of high-touch areas while a room remains occupied. Third-party testing has shown CleanWhite® LED technologies to eliminate 99% of surface pathogens such as bacteria, spores, mold, biofilms, and viruses including SARS-CoV-2 without the use of harsh chemicals.
“As a leading force in health and wellness technology manufacturing, illumiPure continues to produce innovative products and monitoring solutions to pave the way for a safe, healthy future,” said John Higgins, CEO of illumiPure. “CleanWhite® features technology that makes it the first of its kind, achieving ultra-safe white light disinfection.”
CleanWhite®’s light-based solution is ideal for high-touch spaces, including kitchens, restrooms, and locker rooms. For three years, Barbers Hill ISD has used CleanWhite® across multiple schools in the district. The technology has been deployed in gyms, a locker room, showers, and six nurses’ stations district-wide. As a result of installing a CleanWhite® disinfection system, the district has noted trends of reduced cases of staph infections, reduction of mold growth and mildew odor, and lowered infections amongst athletes. “Nurses love illumiPure technologies because they feel protected,” states Ricky Shelton, Energy Manager at Barbers Hill ISD. By installing antimicrobial lighting solutions, any business or government facility can reduce the risk of illnesses transferred by surface contact by using an ultra-safe tool to enhance the quality of their environment.
“illumiPure brings innovative safety products tailored to a variety of markets with cutting-edge technologies,” said Mark Sam, COO of illumiPure. “As we partner with industries and communities such as Barbers Hill ISD, CleanWhite® works to set a new standard for light-based disinfection and elevates healthy and safe lifestyles across the nation. We look forward to the continued growth and success of illumiPure’s pioneering technologies.”
