US-based The Blind Horse Restaurant & Winery has enhanced its safety measures for diners and staff with the deployment of Far-UVC 222 light technology.
The technology has been developed by Florida–based company Healthe. It is designed to inactivate airborne and surface pathogens and viruses and keep occupied indoor spaces safe.
The Blind Horse will install Healthe Space, which is a ceiling-mounted light that offers a mix of general illumination and Far-UVC 222 sanitising light.
According to Healthe, UVC 222 light is not strong enough to penetrate human skin layers and eyes.
The Blind Horse general manager and master winemaker Thomas Nye said: “Of utmost importance to us is that we provide a safe environment so our guests and employees have the opportunity to feel a sense of normalcy and wellbeing that has been shaken by Covid-19.
“Real–time mitigation of the virus has been our goal since this crisis began.
