As restaurants battle to stay alive during the COVID-19 crisis amid some pretty long odds, there has been an increased focus on enhanced health and safety of customers. While many states and municipalities have enacted protocols that include masking and verification of vaccination for entrance into a restaurant, eventually the masks come off as people begin enjoying food, drink, and family and friends in close quarters.

That’s why our Bluezone technology was such a critical piece of Taffer’s renovations. No doubt, restaurants have high safety standards when it comes to cooking and handling food, and the cleanliness of glasses, plates, and pots and pans, but now that standard extends to the air the customers breathe, too.

To protect her students and staff, the owner and director of the DVCC, Laura Harrington, implemented mitigation strategies that included masking, hand washing, and surface sanitization. In addition, they installed a Bluezone air purification system, proven to eliminate 99.9995 percent of particles and pathogens, which includes the coronavirus that causes Covid-19.

Simply put, in a post-Omicron world, many are saying the costs of preventative measures like masking will outweigh the benefits of taking those actions. Our institutions, and our restaurants and other foodservice operations, will be better served transitional back to pre-Covid processes. The reality is, no matter who is advocating for what, we’re likely to see a return to a more normal lifestyle in 2022, and there will still be a need to manage the risks of viruses and other airborne pathogens. Covid will continue to exist, and operators will be best served by continuing many pandemic-era safety measures into the future.

The test unit was placed in a test chamber and a microbial suspension was aspirated into the chamber. The test unit was turned on UV light verified on. Air samples were taken from the test chamber once the unit was turned on, and then at 15-minute intervals over a period of 2 hours.

Strawberries stored for 10 Days under Bluezone® Control exhibited less mold, less ripening, and less undesirable odor than strawberries from the same original pallet stored in an identical refrigerated chamber without the Bluezone® Unit.

This study was conducted to evaluate the efficacy of the Bluezone Model 450 at reducing aerosolized MS2 bacteriophage. The Bluezone device is an air purification system intended for use in medium to large sized rooms.

Just ask any parent. More than going on vacation, more than finding a restaurant with safer air, more than pretty much anything — the top COVID-19 objective so many want to see K-12 schools reopen to in-person learning. The incoming Biden Administration knows this, as well, and according to details in the new coronavirus rescue proposal, there will be a large emphasis — and a significant amount of money — dedicated to achieving these goals.

Bluezone pulls air through the intake side and into the reaction chamber where it eliminates contaminants, and then exhausts purified, clean air back to your indoor space. Airborne contaminants such as virus, bacteria and mold are killed via exposure to the self‐contained germicidal UV‐C light.
