Germicidal Products Solutions

Verifying germicidal devices for efficacy, performance, and compliance with safety guidelines in the intended environment

Germicidal equipment incorporates light output in a special range that kills organisms and bacteria which lead to infectious disease. Germicidal products are used in healthcare facilities, air filtration systems, and other applications worldwide to help prevent the spread of pathogens. As part of our Protek end-to-end health, safety, and wellbeing assurance programs, Intertek services support manufacturers, users, and facilities to assess equipment safety and performance.

Germicidal products require testing and certification to ensure they comply with industry standards, can be legally sold and utilized in the intended environment, and are safe for use in the public domain.
