Through centuries, the power of the sun is still relatively untapped. Solar power can be used to save lives around the world.



Solar power can power up essential lifesaving equipment in mobile clinics at remote areas and sustain hospitals in the event of natural disasters or other power outages.



Even in 2023, there are still many people who live in parts of the world where electricity scarcity creates a serious barrier to the provision of health services. Power for equipment sterilisation and basic medical devices are unavailable when needed.



Harnessing solar energy in a rural and remote areas for medical and sterilization purposes can truly help people who needs this function when there is no electricity, be it medical staff or common home users.



UVii — a portable solar powered UV-C sterilizer, is a mini energy management device that harness the solar energy via its in-build flexible solar panels. Solar energy will be converted and stored in its detachable battery packs. With such energy management system, UVii can be powered up and stored for sterilisation, even on rainy days where there is little or no sunlight.



With UVii, people in rural areas can now have access to a reliable and sustainable medical sterilization device, improving healthcare and hygiene in the community.



Tapping the sun for safer healthcare where there is little or no electricity, UVii steriliser uses UV-C LED lightings to provide a safe, effective sterilising solution, for not only medical supplies/items, but also for sterilisation of baby feed equipment for mothers. It uses an environmentally friendly method of killing bacteria, mold, fungi, and viruses without the use of harmful chemicals and does not produce corrosive materials or disinfection by-products.
