ST. LOUIS – Code 3 is dedicated to protecting the public and those who serve our communities with industry-leading emergency warning and lighting devices. Through a partnership with Vyv (formerly Vital Vio), Code 3 introduced the Antimicrobial Light for emergency service vehicles, which provides useful white lighting while reducing harmful bacteria and microbes on high-touch surfaces.
Recently, other innovative public service organizations began installing Antimicrobial Lights throughout their fleets. As a responsible partner in public safety, Code 3 is committed to transparency and making sure customers have accurate information to make sound decisions for the citizens, first responders, drivers and operators that they support every day.
The Antimicrobial Light is designed to continuously combat a build-up of bacteria, yeast and fungi on high-touch surfaces. Along with other similar products in the market today, it has not been proven to kill or reduce viruses. The devices emit a spectrum of light that is specifically toxic to certain types of bacteria and microbes. Click here for more information on the science and specific capabilities. Viruses, such as COVID-19, are biologically dissimilar and the light’s effectiveness against these organisms have not been proven. Code 3 advises customers to be cautious of any supplier or vendor who claims that their products are “COVID killers.”
The advantage of using Code 3’s Antimicrobial Lights is that they provide an extra layer of protection for public service vehicles that can be in continuous operation without causing harm to citizens or animals. Devices that emit ultraviolet radiation may be harmful after prolonged exposure. Code 3’s lights, which are powered by Vyv’s advanced technology, emit wavelengths within the low-end of the visible spectrum. The Antimicrobial Light provides the best of both worlds to keep drivers and passengers safe in a health-conscious environment.
