GlowMe provides automated disinfection kiosks that combine UV‑C, ozone, steam and 360‑degree warm‑air drying to sanitize shared gear such as helmets, shoes and keychains in a single, touch‑free cycle. The kiosks operate continuously without staff, record each session via IoT for auditability, and require only a standard power connection, making them suitable for hospitals, hotels, gyms and other high‑footfall facilities.

Problem
Shared gear such as helmets, shoes, keychains, and other personal items in high‑traffic commercial spaces are rarely disinfected properly, leading to rapid microbial growth in India's hot, humid environment. Reliance on manual cleaning creates gaps between scheduled disinfection and actual hygiene, which auditors and guests increasingly scrutinize. Facilities cannot assign staff to every touchpoint, resulting in inconsistent and undocumented sanitation.
Solution
GlowMe offers fully automated disinfection kiosks that combine UV‑C, ozone, and steam in a single cycle, followed by 360‑degree warm‑air drying to leave items completely dry before ejection. The IoT‑connected units log each session, providing auditable records for compliance reporting. Three dedicated models address the distinct needs of helmets, shoes, and keychains, allowing seamless integration into existing spaces without plumbing or civil work. The kiosks operate continuously without staff intervention, delivering consistent results regardless of time or personnel availability. By eliminating wet interiors and manual handling, the system reduces labor costs and minimizes the risk of re‑contamination.
Target Audience
Primary customers are hospitals, hotels, gyms, corporate facilities, and other high‑footfall commercial spaces that manage shared gear and must demonstrate documented hygiene compliance.
