Manual cleaning is essential—but it’s only one part of a comprehensive infection prevention strategy.

Even the most thorough cleaning protocols have limitations. That’s why many healthcare facilities add UV-C technology as an additional layer to help reduce microorganisms throughout the patient environment.

By combining manual cleaning with UV-C technology, hospitals can strengthen their environmental hygiene protocols and support safer care for patients and staff.

As we celebrate Independence Day and 250 years of American history, we reflect on the values that continue to unite us - innovation, resilience, service, and the pursuit of a better future.

We’re grateful for the healthcare professionals, veterans, first responders, and essential workers who dedicate themselves every day to protecting the health and well-being of our communities.

From all of us at Surfacide, we wish you a safe, happy, and meaningful Fourth of July.

Happy Independence Day!

In healthcare, regulation isn’t a barrier. It’s a safeguard.

Not all oversight is the same.

When UV-C systems are used in patient care environments, healthcare facilities deserve confidence that the technology has been independently evaluated for the things that matter most.

FDA authorization includes evaluations beyond EPA oversight, including:

• Electrical safety
• Electromagnetic compatibility (EMC)
• Cybersecurity
• Validated performance in healthcare settings

These are critical considerations when technology is deployed around patients, staff, and clinical workflows.

As hospitals continue to raise the bar for infection prevention, independent evaluation helps provide confidence that performance and safety claims have been rigorously assessed.

At Surfacide, we believe healthcare deserves that higher standard.

While we appreciate the communication from APIC to attendees on the trade show floor regarding Whole Room Microbial Reduction Devices, this category has been clearly defined by the FDA since 2023.

It is increasingly concerning to see manufacturers exhibit and market at national infection prevention conferences in the US trying to sidestep this regulatory requirement, whether by citing EPA registration or suggesting their devices avoid medical device surfaces.

In practice, non-critical medical device surfaces encompass the entire patient environment, including bedrails, IV poles, tray tables, nurse call buttons, sinks, toilets, door handles, workstations, and more. There is no alternative pathway for these claims in healthcare settings.

Find us at booth 1617 and learn more about the FDA’s QXJ category.

Live from APIC 2026.

You’ll see a lot of UV technology on the show floor this week. But only two exhibitors at APIC 2026 are currently FDA authorized for Whole Room Microbial Reduction under the FDA’s QXJ classification.

Today, Surfacide and Xenex are jointly reinforcing an important message for healthcare leaders:

FDA Authorization for Whole Room Microbial Reduction is NOT OPTIONAL for UV used in the presence of non-critical medical device surfaces.

Stop by our booths to learn more about:

FDA’s Whole Room Microbial Reduction category

Why authorization matters

What Infection Preventionists should know when evaluating UV technologies

Surfacide and Xenex may compete in the marketplace, but we share a commitment to ensuring the healthcare community is not left with the impression that FDA authorization for UV technologies used in healthcare environments is optional, unnecessary, or interchangeable with EPA oversight for this intended use.

We may compete in the marketplace. But on one issue, we agree:

FDA Authorization for Whole Room Microbial Reduction is NOT OPTIONAL for UV used in the presence of non-critical medical device surfaces.

At APIC 2026, Surfacide and Xenex are proud to support greater awareness of the FDA’s QXJ Whole Room Microbial Reduction device classification and what it means for healthcare organizations focused on patient safety, compliance, and evidence-based technology decisions.

All UV technologies marketed for microbial reduction in healthcare settings where non-critical medical device surfaces are present are required to have FDA authorization. Yet at the nation’s largest conference for Infection Preventionists, currently only two exhibitors have achieved this.

Healthcare environments aren’t one-size-fits-all.

Your UV-C solution shouldn’t be either.

Some spaces may be best served by a single emitter. Others benefit from broader coverage and greater operational efficiency.

That’s why Helios+ was designed to be deployed with one, two, or three emitters, depending on the environment's needs.

The Power of One.
The Power of Three.

One flexible system designed to adapt to your workflow - not the other way around.

Because flexibility isn’t complexity.

It’s having the right solution for the room, the workflow, and the outcome.

We’re headed to Nashville this month! 🎸

The Surfacide team is excited to be at APIC 2026, June 15–17, and we invite you to stop by Booth #1617 to learn more about our FDA-authorized Helios+ UV-C System for Whole Room Microbial Reduction.

We’ll be discussing the latest science behind UV-C technology and showcasing the flexibility of the Helios+ system. Whether you need a single emitter solution or whole room coverage in a single cycle with our triple emitter configuration, Helios+ is designed to fit your workflow. We’ll also be sharing why evidence and FDA authorization both play an important role in healthcare decision making.

Stop by, we’d love to connect.

Healthcare doesn’t need more heroics.
It needs systems that don’t fail.

Standard cleaning protocols are essential, but on their own, they can introduce variability.

That’s why adjunct technologies like UV-C have become so valuable, helping reinforce consistency and reduce reliance on manual processes alone.

When safety depends on workarounds or individual effort, consistency becomes optional, and risk becomes inevitable.

In whole room microbial reduction, that’s where the Power of Three comes in -
three emitters designed for complete room coverage in a single cycle, eliminating the need for multiple placements or repeat cycles.

Less reliance on people.
More confidence in the process.
