Cleanbox Case Study
Cleanbox manufactures eco-friendly, smart tech hygiene equipment for decontaminating headsets, eyewear, face masks, and hardware. Cleanbox patented products kill 99.99+ percent of viruses, bacteria and fungi because their products are engineered to meet all UVC efficacy requirements. When Cleanbox needed an effective disinfection technology for combating viruses and bacteria, they selected high-power Klaran UVC LEDs manufactured by Crystal IS.

The SOLUTION
Klaran UVC LEDs, produced by Crystal IS, emit UVC light in the 260 nm to 270 nm range. By emitting UV light in the key germicidal range, these high-power devices have been shown to disinfect a variety of pathogens such as C. diff, MRSA, and others.
Cleanbox’s CX1 device utilizes the disinfection power of Klaran UVC LEDs to destroy pathogens. The CX1 decontaminates hardware and other products with personal touch points around high-risk contagion transfer areas such as materials within proximity to the face, nose, and mouth.
“Crystal IS has been a great partner since our early development days, and they continue to be a reliable source of premium UVC LEDs for our business”
Application engineers from Crystal IS delivered hands-on, in-person support to Cleanbox throughout the development process by showing them how to integrate Klaran UVC LEDs, running simulations, determining the appropriate UVC dosage, and thoroughly addressing technical questions.
Additionally, during the early stages of the COVID-19 pandemic, Cleanbox saw an opportunity to develop another product (CleanDefense) specifically for decontaminating protective equipment such as N95 masks. CleanDefense’s unique way of utilizing Klaran UVC LEDs enabled results of 5 log reduction of SARS-COV-2 in two minutes on N95 masks.
CONCLUSION
Cleanbox products leverage the disinfection power of Klaran UVC LEDs to treat surfaces of masks and other equipment that is vital for preventing the spread of dangerous viruses and bacteria. As pathogens remain a constant threat to our health and safety, germicidal LEDs are enabling innovative solutions that can help combat these viruses and create healthier environments.
