KVVY Tutkimus Oy Enhances Laboratory Safety with Spectral Blue Disinfection Devices

KVVY Tutkimus Oy, an accredited laboratory, offers environmental and microbiological services at both regional and national levels. Their professional services cater to industries, agriculture, and government sectors, including food examinations, zoonosis and salmonella tests, fertilizer and feed examinations, and water analyses.

Given the inherent risks of handling pathogens and control strains, managing contamination is a top priority for KVVY Tutkimus. To further enhance contamination prevention measures in their pathogen laboratory, they installed Spectral Blue SALO disinfection devices in two laminar hoods and one fume hood. The SALO devices are now in daily use.

Sustainability and environmental improvement are key objectives for KVVY Tutkimus. The long-life, chemical-free, and mercury-free Spectral Blue products align perfectly with these goals.

"Our core values are customer-orientation, expertise, reliability, and impartiality. Preventing cross-contamination and ensuring the integrity of analyses is crucial for our customers and for our own quality assurance. Automatic blue light disinfection provides an additional layer of security," says Marjo Toivo, Head of Analytics Services at KVVY Tutkimus.

"Our staff has been very happy with the new products. Laminar hoods can have seams and parts like detachable planes that are difficult to thoroughly clean manually. Blue light can easily reach those areas, making them easier to keep clean. Unlike UV tubes, the blue light is visible, so it's easy for us to see that it's working as expected. It even provides a sense of added security when you can see its shine when leaving work," Toivo adds.
