THE TECHNOLOGY

Discover the innovation of our photochemistry equipment

In all our photoreactors we use cutting-edge LED technology as a source of light, promoting treatments with lower energy consumption.

We have different kinds of lights (UV-C, UV-B, UV-A, visible, infrared, etc.) and up to several of them can be integrated into the same source of illumination.

It is remarkable that the emitted radiation intensity can be regulated to adjust it to your needs.

Moreover, all our equipment counts with a forced air convection system to control the LEDs temperature, maximizing their efficiency and useful life.
