Citing Research, Kenall Claims Indigo-Clean Inactivates SARS-CoV-2 and Influenza-A

Kenall recently announced that its Indigo-Clean technology is proven effective in killing both SARS-CoV-2 and Influenza-A in recently conducted independent lab testing. Previous research indicated that Indigo-Clean also kills harmful bacteria, such as Staph, including MRSA2.

Indigo-Clean uses 405nm visible light, rather than UV light, to continuously disinfect the air and surfaces, killing harmful viruses and bacteria. Unlike UV, Indigo-Clean does not harm people or degrade materials, making it well-suited for areas such as hospitals, medical centers, quick care facilities, schools, prisons, jails, public restrooms, and more, according to Kenall.

Kenall has expanded the available technology series, now offering three types of disinfection lighting for various applications.

1. Indigo-Clean EX series reportedly kills 99% of SARS-CoV-2 and is also effective against C. diff
2. New Dual-Mode Indigo-Clean technology series provides blended white and indigo-only modes, which reportedly kills 94% of SARS-CoV-2 and Influenza-A with 12/12 hour operation
3. Single-mode Indigo-Clean technology series provides pleasant, ambient illumination and continuous disinfection while the light is on
