UV Academy
At Proxima, we are committed to increase the public knowledge about lighting-related topics including Ultraviolet-based disinfection systems. Having adequate knowledge about the challenges with UV systems and the factors to consider while designing a system is a vital part of every light-based disinfection system. Our engineers and scientists are working continuously to ensure that our UV Academy is always up-to-date and are happy to answer any questions. This page is being updated regularly, and you can register your name to be added to our newsletter and be notified about new article additions.
