Recent research and testing efforts have led UVSheltron to embarking into the Agriculture Market—specifically Fresh, Fruit & Vegetable Transportation & Storage in addition to Cannabis Grow house Air, Space, & Object Disinfection. Reviews of recent academic research and an array of testing of our products have confirmed many value-added applications of UVSheltron products in the agriculture industry.
CANNABIS GROWHOUSE AEROSOL DISINFECTION
UVSHELTON UV-A AIR PURIFICATION HAS THE RIGHT SOLUTION FOR YOUR GROW HOUSE
The Power of Protection—Aerosol Disinfection: White powdery mildew (PM) and gray mold are common fungal diseases that affect every type of plant including cannabis. Microscopic airborne spores, infected garden tools, gloves, and clothing will quickly spread these common fungal diseases. Once infected, plants will yellow and wither, blooms will be reduced, the flavor and potency of the plant can be compromised, and plants may eventually die. Traditional treatment methods often do not start until the PM is visible, and it can take up to 7-days of infection before PM becomes visible to the naked eye. By that time the damage is done. Plants, flowers, and buds infected with powdery mildew or mold often suffer a complete loss.
Our patented Pure Air devices are a PREVENTATIVE air purification system using a proprietary UV-A ultraviolet light process. As airborne contaminants enter the Pure Air unit, harmful spores, bacteria, and pathogens are neutralized at the source. The pathogens are converted to harmless carbon dioxide through photocatalytic oxidation (PCO). The units can be run 24/7 in occupied spaces and are 100% safe. Tested by the Public Health Agency of Canada and Wake Forest University, our Pure Air devices destroy airborne mold and spores in addition to Volatile Organic Compounds (VOCs) to include off-gassing and foul odors inherent to grow house operations.
