A new partnership between Crest Healthcare Supply and Advanced Ultra-Violet System will make the UV Box more widely available.

The UV Box from AUVS is a portable device that disinfects frequently handled items such as cell phones, badges and other handheld devices in just 55 seconds.

In healthcare settings, those handheld devices can be a potential agent of cross-contamination, threatening the well-being of patients, residents and staff who are most vulnerable to infection and disease. The UV Box delivers 99.99% disinfection of the most difficult to treat contaminants, including MRSA and C. diff spores.
