Company Description

Vyv offers a revolutionary replacement for standard overhead lighting that provides safe, active, and continuous disinfection through visible white light. With the simple flip of a light switch, occupied environments can see up to a 99% reduction in harmful bacteria like Salmonella, E. Coli, MRSA, and C.diff. Vital Vio uses a precise combination of wavelengths within the visible spectrum to effectively kill numerous gram negative and gram positive bacteria as well as bacterial spores, yeasts, and fungi.
