    Introducing the Atlas® UVCTest

    Atlas, the global leader in materials testing, today introduced the Atlas® UVCTest exposure instrument. Based on Atlas’ industry-standard fluorescent/UV platform, the UVCTest is specifically designed to quickly evaluate the durability of materials exposed to high-energy UVC radiation generated by increasingly popular UVC sterilization devices. Used for over 40 years to disinfect air, water and non-porous surfaces in medical, sterile work, food, and water treatment facilities, UVC technology is increasingly being employed as a germicide across a much wider range of applications, including transportation, fitness, retail, office, healthcare and home. The result is that more materials are being exposed to energetic, short-wavelength radiation, which can degrade coatings and finishes; fade colorants;…
