Solutions by department

Isolation room solutions: negative pressure and disinfection

Add isolation capacity quickly with modular pressurised rooms, disinfect thoroughly at discharge with UVC, and add continuous far-UVC in anterooms.

Healthcare challenge

The challenge in isolation rooms

Hospitals often have fewer airborne-infection isolation rooms than they need, and building new ones is slow. After an infectious patient leaves, the room must be thoroughly disinfected before reuse.

Risks and operational considerations

  • Insufficient isolation capacity during outbreaks
  • Pressure and air-change requirements for airborne isolation
  • Contamination left on surfaces after discharge
  • Staff exposure in anterooms and corridors

Recommended Capnova solution

A layered approach, not a single device

Add isolation capacity quickly with modular pressurised rooms, disinfect thoroughly at discharge with UVC, and add continuous far-UVC in anterooms.

Relevant products and technologies

Each technology covers a different route: air, surfaces or shared equipment. The final mix is confirmed after a site assessment.
