Biozone Europe sells devices which contribute to personal protection against infection from influenza viruses caught through direct transmission. The technology used (oxygen cold plasma) is not intended to be a substitute for measures for vigilance and care as set out in national guidelines to combat the threat of a flu pandemic. It is intended as a complementary measure to make the air and surfaces safe in areas where patients are treated, so as to guarantee safety for people exposed to a source of influenza. In order to confirm the qualities of these products, Biozone Europe is spearheading research to be published jointly with major European laboratories. The CNRS in Lyon has demonstrated that Biozone technology destroyed the avian flu virus:
Biozone Europe devices were then adapted to suit various settings, such as offices, industrial premises, patient rooms, continuous operation devices, on-board ambulance devices, etc. Biozone Europe already looks after sanitary care in a number of healthcare establishments (e.g. Paris Hospitals), SDIS – Fire Service, private clinics, airports (Ajaccio, Clermont Ferrand, and others) and institutions such as the Banque de France and the Paris police headquarters.
On top of the measures taken as part of the BCP (Business Continuity Plan), which recommend washing hands, wearing surgical masks and FFP2 masks, areas that employees are likely to share may be difficult to be made safe, and represent a potentially significant risk of contamination, given the large number of people involved. This is particularly true of break rooms, cloakrooms, food and catering areas, meeting rooms, reception halls, etc. The installation of Biozone devices in these areas is a valuable addition to staff safety. A number of tests have been carried out with performances similar to those done for the avian flu virus. Among them is the test for influenza, E. Coli and even RSV (the virus responsible for child bronchiolitis). These results enable us to target our equipment to make crèches safer - a strategic choice to preserve the health of all our children. Because quality of life also depends on the quality of the air we all breathe every day, Biozone Europe has developed a whole range of devices that can be adapted to suit the desired location and level of protection. For companies and highly frequented areas, Biozone Europe creates a biologically protected space that scientists have called a "BIO ZONE".
