UV-C Disinfection

CHICAGO — Ultraviolet (UV) light is a natural disinfectant. It destroys bacteria that it comes in contact with.

Paul Jewison, president and CEO of Textile Care Services, a healthcare laundry in Rochester, Minn., has been using UV technology as a disinfectant for close to two years.

“This ultraviolet system is a game changer,” he says. “It’s overkill because the light is on continuously. It can move all around the laundry.”
