How RadBox works

Germicidal light kills on the surface and in shadowed areas. Heat goes where germicidal light can't.

Modality 1

Germicidal light

Over 660 mJ/cm² on direct surfaces in 50 seconds.13

Modality 2

Radiative and conductive heat

Above 121 °C, radiated onto the instrument and conducted through steel into sealed cavities.13

Together

Every surface

Direct, shadowed, lumens and occluded sites, within minutes.13

The race

Steam: tabletop pouch cycle.7 RadBox: about 9 min with germicidal light and heat combined; heat alone reaches 6-log in about 10.5 min.13

Evidence so far

Real handpiece. Real spores.

Tested with independent labs, ahead of formal FDA validation.
