Reduction of microbial load
The food and its container can be treated to considerably reduce the microbial load, improving the shelf life of products without any contraindications. Consider that airborne microbial contamination enters mainly through the ambient air and employees themselves (one person produces from 500 to 3000 bacteria with every expulsion of air, by simply breathing).
Physical action and ecological protection
The UV-C light treatment is purely physical, allows consistent treatment with the same level of efficacy, and is without the risk of potentially overdosing on UV rays. On the contrary, many chemical treatment methods involve the use of hazardous, not very biodegradable products, which therefore pose a risk to human health.
Immediate treatment
An effective treatment (elimination of 99.9% of bacteria) only takes a few seconds, therefore the modules can be applied in-line without disrupting food or pharmaceutical production processes.
Treatment without chemical/physical alteration
The treatment is cold and dry; it does not alter the sensory properties or quality of the exposed objects in any way, and leaves no residue.
Practicality and affordability
The treatment is immediate and ready for use. Maintenance is negligible and requires minimal expenditure in terms of energy consumption and servicing costs.
The benefits
of original Light Progress products
our range stands due to its advantageous solution because:
It includes specific products for industrial production during each stage of the production process.
every application in production/packaging lines is rated by simulating the possible results, using a highly reliable technique with dedicated software. Each UV system is individually calculated for each project, and its application includes the complete integration of the device into new and/or existing production lines, thus ensuring the lowest possible impact for assembly and maintenance, also thanks to the convenient accessories.
It is the only one that uses UV-C sources of any type (HO, amalgam, compact lamps, medium pressure...) and is supplied with all necessary safety systems such as automatic closure after a machine stop, ventilation, operator protection, custom control panels, alarm signals that can also be integrated by remote...
The optionals include the original UVLON® lamp protection, which prevents the glass from shattering in the event of breakage or an accident.
Thanks to our long-standing experience, we are able to advise you on a complete disinfection, including air and water treatment, for public or production environments.
How it works
UV rays eliminate up to 99.999% of microorganisms such as viruses and bacteria, destroying their DNA or RNA with minimal effort and without the use of hazardous chemicals or gases. The UV rays do not leave any residue, so the environments are immediately ready for use without any risk.

UV-STICK / UV-STICK (UL)
With UV-STICK, it is possible to achieve high levels of disinfection in a simple, immediate, and safe manner, without generating heat, without the use of liquids, and with no side effects, to maintain high hygiene and quality standards.
The device is installed like a regular ceiling-mounted light fixture and can be turned on during work breaks, always in the absence of personnel, to irradiate surfaces, which are then disinfected. In the environment, the natural circulation of air currents also allows for air treatment, which, purified of microbial load, creates an ideal and healthy environment.
UV-STICK-AL is made of aluminum, with an internal parabolic reflector in mirrored aluminum.
UV-STICK-AX is made of aluminum, with a flat internal reflector in mirrored aluminum.
UV-STICK-NX is made of stainless steel, with a flat internal reflector in mirrored aluminum. Also available in -UL version.
The disinfection level with UV-STICK achieves a reduction (99%) of bacteria such as Bacillus, Coli, Clostridium, Legionella, Vibrio, Salmonella, Pseudomonas, Staphylococcus, etc., in just a few minutes of operation.
UV-REFLEX series
UV-REFLEX ensures full compliance with the specific measures regarding "dry ageing" as provided by Delegated Regulation (EU) No. 1141/2024, which amends Regulation (EC) No. 853/2004.
With the use of UV-REFLEX, in particular, an improved maturation, ageing, aspect and quality of the meat is achieved. The treatment takes place by exploiting the constant forced air circulation, (due to the flow generated by the fan of the ventilation system), which pass next to the device and is decontaminated from microbes, before they enter into contact with the products inside the cold rooms.
The device does not affect the normal aging of the product, as it avoid only the growth of unwanted microorganisms, i.e. those found in the air.
UV-REFLEX can stay on continuously without any problem, so it ensures a level of microbial load always under constant control without the ups and downs, typical of traditional disinfection systems.
Owing to the use of the UV-C technology, it is possible to increase the shelf life of food preserved in cold rooms, without developing resistant microorganisms and without the use of chemicals, risky to employ and hard to biodegrade. UV-C treatment is dry and cold, does not alter the organoleptic features of food and its quality, but rather, it prevents product loss due to the proliferation of bacteria and fungi and enhances the freshness, taste and appearance of food, without dehydration and weight loss.
UV-REFLEX achieves the elimination (99%) of bacteria such as Bacillus, Coli, Clostridium, Legionella, Vibrio, Salmonella, Pseudomonas, Staphylococcus, etc. in just a few minutes of operation.
UV-TEAM
UV-STYLO-NX | UV-STYLO-A-NX
Traditional cleaning methods are, often, not sufficient to ensure high levels of hygiene, which can be achieved only by the use of UV-C technology.
As a matter of fact, food processes have the need to be controlled, by monitoring hygiene levels, to keep quality standards, typical of this sector, high.
It is shown how, in the food industry, the increase in hygiene level allows a consequent and general product quality increase and, more specifically, UV-STYLO-NX achieves the abatement (99%) of bacteria such as Bacillus, Coli, Clostridium, Legionella, Vibrio, Salmonella, Pseudomonas, Staphylococcus, etc. in just 4 minutes of operation.
High disinfection levels of UV-STYLO can be otherwise achieved and only with the use of chemicals, hazardous to health and harmful to the environment, as well as costly.
UV-TEAM-A
It is shown that the control and the increase of hygiene level allows a consequent and general increase in quality both in healthcare facilities but also in pharmaceutical sector, in microbiological laboratories, etc.
The disinfection level with UV-TEAM-A achieves the elimination (99%) of bacteria such as Bacillus, Coli, Clostridium, Legionella, Vibrio, Salmonella, Pseudomonas, Staphylococcus, etc. in just a few minutes
of operation.
Some application examples are treatment in bottling lines and the down channel plugs; treatment of products being placed on the clean room (using a UV tunnel that allows you to enter products in protected environments by eliminating any risk of contamination) treatment of spices (tunnel with Shaving system thin layer, reduction of the bacterial load and increase the shelf-life.
The - A serie includes special amalgam lamps. This type of bulbs, unlike the standard low pressure UV-C lamps, use a special “amalgam” made with metals, which optimize the UV germicidal power efficiency.
Amalgam systems allows triple the UV-C emission compare to a low pressure lamp with the same length, and up to 16.000 hours life that
guarantee a consequent cost saving.
Amalgam lamps are perfect in application where there is a short timing of exposition, such as in some food packaging lines.
High disinfection levels of UV-TEAM can be otherwise achieved, but only with chemicals, hazardous to health and harmful to the environment, as well as costly.
UV-STYLO-F
UV-STYLO-F is designed specifically for applications in the food industry, and that is why one of its features is also the IP67 protection level, allowing it to combine perfectly with damp environments and water splashes.
Traditional cleaning methods are, often, not sufficient to ensure high levels of hygiene, which can be achieved only by the use of UV-C technology.
As a matter of fact, food processes and storage have the need to be kept under control, by monitoring hygiene levels, to increase quality standards, which are usually very high.
It is shown how, in the food industry, an increased hygiene level allows a consequent and general product quality improvement. UV-STYLO-F achieves the elimination (99%) of bacteria such as Bacillus, Coli, Clostridium, Legionella, Vibrio, Salmonella, Pseudomonas, Staphylococcus, etc. in just a few minutes of operation.
High disinfection levels of UV-STYLO-F can be otherwise achieved but only with a massive use of chemicals, hazardous to health and harmful to the environment, as well as costly.
UV - TEAM-A-4P
It is shown that the control and the increase of hygiene level allows a consequent and general increase in quality both in healthcare facilities but also in pharmaceutical sector, in microbiological laboratories, etc.
The disinfection level with UV-TEAM-A-4P achieves the elimination (99%) of bacteria such as Bacillus, Coli, Clostridium, Legionella, Vibrio, Salmonella, Pseudomonas, Staphylococcus, etc. in just a few seconds of treatment.
