That’s why all precautions are taken and all appropriate protocols are in place in the home.
The CleceVitam Vía Ronda care home features Xenex robot technology to boost the disinfection tasks performed by our cleaning staff, carrying out the various procedures and meeting all the standards in place relating to health and safety in the workplace.
The LightStrike™ Xenex xenon disinfection robot is the first and only ultraviolet-light (UV-C) capable of destroying the current SARS-CoV-2, which causes COVID-19, in only two minutes and up to 99.99% effectiveness. This has been certified by the study conducted by the Texas Biomedical Research Institute, one of the leading independent research bodies, specialising in infectious diseases.
The Xenex disinfection system uses broad spectrum type-C ultraviolet light (UV-C) generated by a xenon gas lamp. The technology is capable of destroying pathogenic micro-organisms such as bacteria, fungi and viruses in only a few minutes. Compared with other mercury-based disinfection devices, Xenex is 100% sustainable, with by-products that are inert and harmless to people and the environment alike..
The Xenex system was already successfully in other health emergencies, such as MERS (Middle East respiratory syndrome) in 2012, and Ebola in 2014. The coronavirus crisis has once again put this technology to the test, and it has proven to eliminate 99.99% of COVID-19 in just two minutes at a one-metre distance.
Its use during the pandemic showed the importance of using specialised technology to ensure spaces are sterilised and kept free from the risk of contagion.
Since 2015, Clece has been progressively incorporating this Xenex disinfection technology into its cleaning and disinfection protocols in health centres. The company currently uses several robots in several leading health and community healthcare centres located throughout Spain.
