DDC Dolphin | UVC AIRSAFE CASE STUDY

Hospital ventilation is often poor due to sealed windows or restrictive policies. HTM 03-01 recommends at least six air changes per 
hour in wards, rising in high-risk areas.*

Inadequate ventilation allows viruses to spread and linger. Cleaner air reduces infection risk and protects patients and staff.** 

The Study
Clinically Proven Air Sterilisation for Safer Hospital Environments
Developed with a leading Danish hospital, the UVMATIC® AirSafe Steriliser uses multi-stage filtration and dual disinfection to sterilise air in clinical settings.

It combines UVC light, a titanium dioxide (T1O2)-coated filter, activated carbon, and a medical grade HEPA14 filter, removing particles and neutralising airborne pathogens with high efficiency.

The Result
Proven at Rigshospitalet, Copenhagen:
Clinical testing showed a steady drop in airborne bacteria (CFUs) when the unit was active, with levels rising sharply when turned offproving its effectiveness.

• Developed & tested in cooperation with a leading Danish hospital  
• Proven 80% reduction in CFU’s in an ICU Environment***
• Documented reduction of surface contamination in addition to the air***

NHS Wales efficacy testing
A study carried out by NHS Wales at Ysbyty Gwynedd, Bangor in January 2023, noted a reduction of more than 96% in 0.3um particles 
over a 120 minute period.
