Building on its previous European and Chinese patents, LED Tailor has now been granted a US patent for its innovative Multi-Wavelength, High-Intensity (MWHI) blue light technology, designed to automatically reduce harmful microorganisms on surfaces and in the air.
The patented technology is a superior alternative to traditional disinfection methods: It is completely safe for people and materials, it can be used in areas where people are working, and it is effective even on biofilms and multi-resistant strains of microbes. It provides continuous disinfection, keeping your facilities hygienic 24/7.
MWHI technology utilizes several blue light sources with distinct peak wavelengths to target microorganisms more effectively and safely than traditional disinfection methods, such as chemical or UVC-based solutions.
Unlike UV radiation, which is highly harmful to humans and surfaces, and toxic chemical disinfectants, MWHI blue light technology is engineered to be safe to use in human environments. Compared to legacy single-wavelength blue light systems, MWHI is up to 5-10 times more effective – achieving disinfection in hours instead of days or weeks – and has a broader killing spectrum.
The system is also designed to optimize energy use by focusing only on wavelengths that impact microorganisms, making it both cost-effective and efficient.
Marketed under the brand name Spectral Blue, this technology offers a robust, multi-targeted blue light disinfection solution that is safe, energy-efficient, and capable of addressing a wide range of harmful microorganisms without the use of chemicals or UV radiation. This represents a significant leap for industries requiring the highest standard of hygiene, such as healthcare, food production, laboratories, and pharmaceutical cleanrooms.
