UV disinfection robots are being increasingly deployed across hospitals around the world to combat the novel coronavirus and further protect patients and healthcare workers from COVID-19.

UV disinfection company Surfacide’s (Waukesha, WI, USA) Helios System of UV robots are designed to help protect and keep patients and healthcare workers safe. Surfacide's UV-C technology is scientifically proven to inactivate coronavirus - the family of viruses that make up SARS-CoV-2 and COVID-19. Surfacide is the world's first and only patented, automated, multiple-emitter UV-C system to safely eradicate harmful bacteria and viruses from environments. Surfacide’s Helios System uses multiple UV-C light towers simultaneously to rapidly eliminate and prevent the spread of dangerous microorganisms, including Coronavirus, SARS-CoV-2, C.diff, MRSA, VRE, CRE and Acinetobacter. Surfacide UV-C is scientifically proven to rapidly decontaminate SARS-CoV-2 (COVID-19) colonized surfaces, reducing virus and bacteria in a single cycle in as little as five minutes.

"We are grateful that so many pediatric hospitals have adopted Surfacide's powerful, trusted UV-C robot technology during these critical times," said Gunner Lyslo, Founder and CEO of Surfacide. "We are proud that Surfacide UV-C is having a positive impact in combating COVID-19 and protecting our most vulnerable young patients and all of the frontline essential healthcare workers that care for them."
