EHC Global Launches LED UV-C Handrail Sterilization Solution for Escalators and Moving Walks
On April 20th EHC Global (EHC), a leading manufacturer of components, technical services and integrated solutions to the vertical transportation industry, announced the introduction of its LED UV-C Handrail Sterilization Solution for escalators and moving walks.
The compact LED UV-C Handrail Sterilization Module is mounted internally, which provides several key advantages over externally mounted devices. These benefits include the elimination of risks and costs associated with entrapment (fingers, clothing, etc), damage caused by impact, vandalism, theft, unnecessary downtime, and the obstruction of ingress and egress access on escalators and moving walks.
EHC initially introduced the LED UV-C Handrail Sterilization Module to industry partners in 2018. In response to the growing demand for enhanced cleanliness, antimicrobial protection and disinfection of high-traffic touch points such as handrails on escalators and moving walks, EHC has ramped up commercial production and availability of the LED UV-C Handrail Sterilization Module in key markets.
