Red Thread today announced a new addition to its portfolio of workplace re-entry solutions called PurifySpaces.

The PurifySpaces air purification system, featuring Bluezone technology, “kills airborne pathogens and returns pure air into interior environments,” according to the Red Thread announcement.

Red Thread partnered with Bluezone to integrate this technology into custom furniture cabinets for corporate, health and learning spaces.

“Originally developed for the U.S. military, Bluezone achieves a 99.98% kill rate against aerosolized MS2, a SARS-CoV-2 surrogate virus, within 120 minutes,” according to the Red Thread announcement. “Bluezone attacks contamination near its source, continuously circulating air through Bluezone’s germicidal UV-C light reaction chamber to maintain optimal air quality.”

The CDC, FDA and 239 scientists who wrote an open letter to the World Health Organization all recommend using germicidal UV-C to mitigate airborne transmission, according to the Red Thread announcement.

“PurifySpaces can help organizations gain employee trust by instilling confidence that their work environments are safe and protected,” said John Mitton, VP of audiovisual technology at Red Thread, in the company announcement. “Managing compliance and safety will be an ongoing challenge for any workplace re-entry strategy, even with comprehensive post-COVID protocols.

“Effective air cleaning is a critical element of infection management and risk mitigation for any space—whether it’s a distance learning classroom or two-person enclave,” he said.
