Cagliari like Dubai: Sardinian airport first in Italy to sanitize environments with innovative technology
It is the Fotonit system and takes advantage of totally green products. Tests have shown that, just a few hours after application, the level of hygiene is comparable to that of a hospital operating room
Absolute accomplice the Covid, in the airport environment in recent years the sanitation has become one of the crucial areas for protecting the welfare of all users, from passengers to visitors and workers. In this sense, the"Cagliari airport chose a Finnish company specializing in functional surface coating solutions by adopting theinnovative Fotonit system, developed in collaboration with several universities and accredited research institutes, capable of combining perfect sanitization through the use of totally green products.
How does this technology work?
In this article:
All high-contact surfaces are sprayed with the Fotonit solution. The small particles in the basic titanium dioxide solution react to normal ambient light, whether natural or artificial, and form a invisible, protective and self-disinfecting coating on the surface. The phenomenon is called photocatalysis.
Tests show that as early as a few hours after application, the level of hygiene is comparable to that of a hospital operating room. Unlike traditional disinfectants, bacteria and viruses are unable to develop resistance to photocatalysis. Therefore, surfaces remain sanitized at all times, even between cleanings, for a period of 12 months. Fotonit technology is a unique innovation, patented and award-winning, and already in use, if only to mention the aviation sector, at the Dubai airports, third in the world by passenger traffic, as well as by Helsinki and Tallinn.
"In terms of sanitation, we were looking for the best solution to align with the highest sanitation and biosecurity standards worldwide. However, the fact that we operate, as a company, in Sardinia, on such an unspoiled island, leads to further reflection on sustainability, guiding, where possible, choices, precisely in this direction. We have found in Nanoksi, the ideal partner, thanks to the Fotonit® technology which Combines perfect sanitation with maximum sustainability and respect for the environment in which we are immersed," commented the top management of SOGAER.
