Until now, Hönle's Disinfection Business Unit's product portfolio included low-pressure UV lamps, UV LEDs, and medium-pressure UV lamps. STERIXENE now complements this offering with pulsed xenon lamps, enabling reliable, efficient, and sustainable disinfection solutions for all levels.

In addition, STERIXENE also offers patented UV bio-indicators. In its laboratory in France, microbiological analyses can be performed to demonstrate the effectiveness of disinfection after UVC irradiation. This provides the customer with a comprehensive solution and ensures its safe operation.

Applications include manufacturing and packaging processes in the food, pharmaceutical, and cosmetics industries, which are subject to stringent hygiene and safety requirements. Christophe Puisnel and Janyce Franc, the existing management team, will continue the development of STERIXENE, now supported by a leading group in its field. By offering a comprehensive range of UV disinfection solutions and microbiological testing, Hönle distinguishes itself and affirms its leadership in UV technologies.
