The first biosafety technology company dedicated to making the indoor spaces we share safer, healthier and more productive MoreLess

R-Zero is a startup that operates in the health and safety industry, providing an intelligent disinfection platform for indoor environments. The company's primary focus is to create healthy indoor spaces for everyone, including workplaces, homes, and recreational areas. R-Zero's platform uses UV-C disinfection technology, which has been proven to be 99.9% effective in eliminating pathogens in the air and on surfaces. This technology is used in various settings, including large school districts, hospitals, and corporate offices.

The company's business model is centered around its IoT-enabled platform, which is more cost-effective than traditional disinfection methods such as chemical disinfection and HVAC solutions. R-Zero's platform is also environmentally friendly, emitting only 5% of the greenhouse gases produced by HVAC systems and producing no chemical waste byproducts.

R-Zero also offers a data-driven approach to optimizing real estate portfolios. The company's sensors measure occupancy and provide risk intelligence, allowing clients to optimize space utilization and disinfection. The sensors are wireless, require no wired installation, and have a battery life of over five years.

One of R-Zero's standout products is the Arc mobile UV-C tower. This device can disinfect air and surfaces in a 1000 square foot area in just seven minutes, and a 100 square foot area in less than a minute. This efficiency allows clients to reduce the presence of pathogens quickly and effectively.

In summary, R-Zero is a health and safety startup that provides cost-effective, efficient, and environmentally friendly disinfection solutions for indoor environments.
