To help people disinfect their belongings properly while safeguarding their own health, Ontel Products Corporation rolled out a user-friendly UV sanitizer—Safe and Healthy UV-C Sanitizing Light. By radiating UV-C light, this low-price tiny wand can kill 99.9% of viruses and germs without any harm to the surfaces of objects.
Outstanding Germicidal Effect of UV-C Light
To fight against COVID-19, some people might sterilize their bags, shoes, and furniture with alcohol but later find the surfaces accidentally damaged. In fact, alcohol can dissolve the coating of many objects. Unlike alcohol, UV-C light will not harm the surfaces of objects, such as feathers, wooden furnishings, and screen protectors for 3C products. Most importantly, its germicidal effect is not inferior to that of alcohol. According to Allied Market Research, UV-C light is effective in destroying the RNA and DNA of the microorganisms such as molds, bacteria, viruses, and yeasts. Also, according to the U.S. Food and Drug Administration: “UV-C radiation may also be effective in inactivating the SARS-CoV-2 virus, which is the virus that causes COVID-19.” As Ontel states, the wand can eliminate 99.9% of bacteria and viruses on the surface, including flu, e. coli, staph, mold, germs, allergens, dust mites, and other pathogens.
Compact and Convenient Design
As technology advances rapidly, UV sanitizing devices are no longer bulky. Nowadays, all of us are able to have our own hand-held UV wands. The dimension of Safe and Healthy UV-C Sanitizing Light is 5 x 1.75 x 9 inches, and its weight is only 0.28 pounds. Overall, it is rather tiny and light. Moreover, it can be folded down for convenient storage, which is ideal for travels and on-the-goes.
Wide Range of Application and Easy Usage
Safe and Healthy UV-C Sanitizing Light cleans various types of surfaces, including hard-to-reach, delicate, and soft surfaces that are vulnerable to disinfectants. You can use it to sterilize cell phones, toys, packages, cotton, and cars’ interiors, etc. By simply gliding the wand over the surface and holding it in place for 10 to 20 seconds, the powerful UV-C light will disinfect what you cannot see in seconds. As for the time span, plastic, metal, and glass surfaces require 10 seconds, while cotton, wood, and cardboard surfaces require up to 20 seconds.
Reusability and EPA Certification
This reusable UV wand runs on four aaa batteries. You just need to press the on/off button, and then you can use it repetitively anytime and anywhere, which means no more wipes and tissue will be wasted. Hence, it has passed the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) certification, and the certification number is EPA Est No. 96522-CHN-1.
Easy Accessibility and Low Price
You might think that UV disinfection devices can only be purchased by medical staff; actually, UV wands are available for everyone. Ontel’s UV wand is on sale on Amazon now. What makes this wand stand out from other brands is its relatively low price. It is less than 7 USD as of the moment, while most of the other brands are over 10 USD.
Nevertheless, remember that this wand is mainly used to sterilize objects. Its application to the human body should be avoided, for too much exposure to UV light might trigger some skin problems. Overall, due to the amazing germicidal effect, a wide range of applications, easy usage, eco-friendliness, and relatively low price, Ontel’s Safe and Healthy UV-C Sanitizing Light may be suitable for everyone, especially for those who have never used UV disinfecting products before.
