UV Tunnels are a development of Asmech Systems in collaboration with UV Technology, the UK’s leading provider of UV-C Disinfection. The UV decontamination tunnels manufactured with bespoke design. Driven by the growing demand for high quality standards with a reduced dependence on chemical processes.
What is UV-C?
UV-C decontamination is Ultraviolet light in the C-spectrum which is very energy-rich. The light is very versatile and can be used from disinfecting water and terminating harmful micro-organisms in other liquids, on surfaces, food products or in the air. UV-C can destroy more than 99.9% of all pathogens instantly with no side effects or use of harmful chemicals. Therefore, UV-C systems are highly efficient and reliable in all environments.

- Extended shelf life
- Reduced spoilage and wastage

These are just some of the many benefits UV Technology can bring to your company. UV Tunnels are used in many industries including Food, Health Care, Facilities Management and HVAC/Refrigeration.
The UV Tunnel is used to not only decontaminate products but also transport them between other conveyors.
