The sustainable low-temperature ozone sterilization solution

scroll

Eco-friendly

Waste- and chemical-free process relying on limited energy resources. Ozone does not leave toxic fumes or residues; rather it converts back to oxygen that can be safely released into the environment.

Safe

Parameters are monitored to guarantee process efficiency and effective destruction of all microorganisms (bacteria, yeast, fungi, viruses and spores). The durable container allows extended sterile storage.

Cost-Effective

The low-maintenance process relies on the use of UV radiation to generate ozone from ambient air. Designed to operate with minimized costs per cycle, devices’ lifetime is preserved by a gentle process.

This innovative technology adapts to your needs

A proprietary patented process

The process relies on the use of 172 nm V-UV lamps to transform oxygen from ambient air into ozone (O3), a naturally occurring biocide gas also known as trioxygen. Ozone further reacts with water molecules (H2O) to form hydroxyl radicals which are highly reactive species responsible for the inactivation of all microorganisms.

At the end of the sterilization process, a 254 nm V-UV lamp transforms the remaining ozone back into oxygen.
The process is compliant with applicable norms relative to the microbial effectiveness of the sterilization process.

I wanted a sterilizer that was easy to run, safe on our medical equipment, didn't require any retrofitting or venting, had a small footprint, inexpensive to run sterilization cycles and above all safe for all our staff. I was delighted when SteriLux was suggested to me. The SteriLux team were all so helpful during the entire process, starting from explaining the science behind the ozone sterilization, all the way through setting up the equipment and running cycles. I would recommend the SteriLux system for any medical practice,

    Dr. Lara Zahra Canada

  • We first learned about the Sterilux ozone sterilizer from a European colleague who had been using it successfully for her mobile endoscopy practice. Intrigued, we reached out to Sterilux, and from the very first interaction, we were impressed. Their customer service was exceptional, and their eagerness to demonstrate their technology and allow us to trial the unit made the decision easy. We were proud to become the first clinic in North America to use this system, and our team has been consistently impressed. The sterilizer’s ease of use, compact design, and minimal need for consumables have made it an outstanding addition to our veterinary practice. Most importantly, the safety profile stands far above traditional gas sterilizers, eliminating the risks associated with handling harmful or toxic gases, which is important for our staff and for the environment.We’ve been extremely happy with the product and are pleased to see Sterilux expanding into the North American market. It’s a technology we believe will benefit many practices just as it has ours.

It’s simple and easy to learn, and the ozone sterilization feels reassuring for user safety, with no major toxicity concerns. It also runs on nitrogen only, which helps keep operating costs lower. Best of all, it provides an immediate report after each cycle so you can quickly confirm the sterilization status.

  • We are happy with our machine. It has provided us with a more environmentally friendly alternative to ethylene oxide. The boxes are very useful for storing kits and we have had no concerns about sterility from using it for arthroscopy equipment and drills. Aftercare has been excellent with rapid response times to any queries.

    Dr. Scott Rigg Scotland

  • Our experience with Sterilux and its services has been very good. When there was an issue, it was always possible to contact them straight away. And a solution has always been found.<br /> We are also very pleased to have this device in our practice, it’s now possible to sterilize material that we couldn’t before.

    Tinne Pets Belgium

  • Nous sommes particulièrement satisfaits de SteriLux, que nous utilisons désormais régulièrement au sein du cabinet. La stérilisation à l’ozone représente pour nous une solution particulièrement intéressante, notamment pour les instruments ou dispositifs qui ne peuvent pas être facilement stérilisés par les techniques conventionnelles.<br /> Le système est pratique et simple d’utilisation, et nous permet de disposer de matériel stérilisé en toute sécurité, un aspect essentiel notamment pour les instruments destinés aux interventions chirurgicales.<br /> SteriLux est ainsi devenu un complément très utile aux autres méthodes de stérilisation utilisées au cabinet.<br /> Un autre point que nous apprécions particulièrement est la qualité du service après-vente : réactif, disponible et efficace. C’est un véritable plus et un aspect qu’il ne faut certainement pas négliger.

Their ozone sterilization solutions are supported by an excellent customer service team that is always responsive, professional, and efficient when questions or technical issues arise. The introduction of their new customer portal has been a significant added value. It provides an intuitive platform for placing orders, tracking progress, and submitting support requests, making communication and follow-up much smoother and more transparent. Sterilux consistently demonstrates a strong commitment to customer satisfaction through both the quality of their products and the reliability of their service. We highly recommend them as a trusted partner in sterilization technology.

    Kurt Labyte Belgium

  • As a mobile veterinary surgeon, I am very happy to have found a low-temperature sterilization option that is very safe to have in my home. I primarily process vessel sealing hand-pieces, electrosurgery pencils, and cautery smoke evacuation tubing. I also use the device to sterilize clipper blades, scrub bottles, and other items used for patient prep and instrument cleaning.<br /> It’s very helpful that SteriLux can view the status of each cycle, and when I had a few cycle errors, I often had an email directly from SteriLux with a solution before I even had a chance to email them to ask about it.

    Clinique Vétérinaire D’Aylmer / Aylmer Veterinary Clinic Canada

  • "Tout se passe bien avec le SteriLux et on en est très content. L'utilisation du SteriLux est très facile et tous les membres du cabinet savent le mettre en route sans problèmes. Nous l'utilisons au quotidien un peu en fonctions des chirurgies effectuées, je dirais en moyenne probablement 2 x /semaine. Comme sa caisse de stérilisation est assez spatieuse, il nous est possible de stériliser plusieurs instruments dans le même cycle. Nous l'utilisons surtout pour stériliser les intruments du ligasure et les instruments de chirurgie ophtalmique qui sont assez délicats ou impossibles à stériliser dans l'autoclave normal à cause de pieces en plastique.
