Problem
Effective surface disinfection in remote, hazardous, or resource‑limited settings often relies on liquid chemicals or consumable wipes, which require storage, transport, and proper disposal, and can be unsafe for users and the environment.
Solution
SPAERO Systems provides a handheld, battery‑powered device that generates cold plasma directly from ambient air to disinfect surfaces without any liquids or consumable supplies. The unit uses interchangeable nozzles and a simple three‑step workflow—aim, activate, treat—to deliver a controlled plasma exposure that inactivates bacterial and fungal pathogens. Powered by a high‑capacity battery, the system can be used on‑the‑go in challenging environments such as field hospitals, industrial sites, or disaster zones. Ongoing bench‑top and lab testing validates its efficacy, while the company is pursuing regulatory clearance for broader commercial use.
Target Audience
Primary customers include field medical teams, industrial cleaning operators, and emergency response personnel who need rapid, consumable‑free disinfection solutions in austere or high‑risk environments.
