Acuity Brands Integrates Ushio’s Care222 with LED Lighting

In the pursuit of cleaner, safer environments, Acuity Brands has achieved a groundbreaking integration by incorporating Ushio’s Care222® technology into their Gotham EVO® LED lights. This innovative partnership merges state-of-the-art disinfection technology with high-performance lighting solutions, setting a new standard in both illumination and hygiene.

The Evolution of Care222 Technology

A Legacy of Innovation

USHIO, a pioneer in the field, has a rich history of developing and applying excimer lamps, originally designed for use in semiconductor and LCD manufacturing processes. Their experience in creating cutting-edge light technologies has culminated in the development of Care222®, a revolutionary disinfecting light source.

What Sets Care222® Apart

Care222® stands out from conventional ultraviolet (UV) sanitizers due to its ability to provide effective disinfection while ensuring safety for humans and animals. This technology operates at a wavelength of 222 nm, which is filtered through a special optical bandpass filter to eliminate harmful wavelengths. This makes Care222® uniquely suited for use in occupied spaces, allowing for continuous disinfection of the air and environmental surfaces without causing harm.

Certification and Safety

Acuity Brands’ filtered Far-UVC module, utilizing Ushio’s Care222® technology, is the first of its kind to achieve UL certification. This certification underscores the safety and efficacy of the technology, confirming its compliance with rigorous safety standards.
