Ultraviolet water disinfection systems are helping a mineral water company ensure its products are free from microbial contamination.
UV water disinfection knocks out the bugs
One of the UK's leading convenience food manufacturers has invested in two UV water disinfection systems to permanently kill bacteria, viruses and moulds.
Hanovia is one of the first British companies to achieve the QMS.
The company has also been awarded certification in the USA by NSF International, an independent public health safety company, for its Photon medium pressure UV system.
The Photon is the first UV disinfection system to be certified in the USA under NSF-50 (swimming pools and spas).
In addition, Hanovia has received certification for its UV systems by another US testing house, the Underwriters Laboratories (UL).
UL regulates and controls product safety and its certification is virtually mandatory when an American company makes a capital purchase.
Commenting on the awards, Hanovia's Quality Assurance Manager, John Ellis said, "These are major achievements which send a clear message to our customers: firstly, that we are listening to them, and secondly, that they can have continued confidence in the quality of our products and service." Hanovia, part of Halma, was established in 1924 and is one of the world's leading providers of medium pressure UV technology for water, effluent, air and surface disinfection.
It is the only UV system supplier with its own research and development and lamp manufacturing facility, and is therefore uniquely positioned to provide custom-made solutions for most disinfection problems.
Hanovia has more than 40,000 UV systems installed in over 100 countries.
