What UV Smart does
UV Smart Technologies B.V., founded in 2017 and headquartered in Delft, Netherlands, designs and manufactures UV-C high-level disinfection (HLD) systems for non-lumen medical devices, primarily semi-critical ultrasound probes (including TEE/TOE probes), ENT and gastroenterology endoscopes, and related instruments used in hospitals, fertility centers, and long-term care facilities. Its portfolio consists of three core hardware products — the D25+ (25-second cycle), D45 (75-second cycle), and D60 (60-second cycle) — all built around the company's proprietary Impelux™ UV-C dosing technology and validated against ISO 13485, EU MDR Class IIa, FDA 510(k) (D60, TEE probes, February 2026), TGA, and Swissmedic requirements. Compatibility with 65+ GE HealthCare probe models and 50 supporting clinical studies underpin its positioning as a chemical-free, rapid-cycle alternative to traditional high-level disinfection.
The company sells capital equipment through a hybrid model: direct sales combined with a 35+ country reseller/distributor network, supplemented by a distribution partnership with Pentax Medical for endoscopy channels. Customers include named European and US hospital systems (Amsterdam UMC, Radboud UMC, Erasmus MC, UMCG, ETZ, Franciscus, UKGM, NYU Langone), with deployments spanning cardiology, ENT, ultrasound, infection prevention, fertility, and nursing-home segments. Unit economics are anchored by capital equipment sales plus recurring consumables/services and multi-year service contracts.
In June 2026, Advanced Sterilization Products (ASP), a Fortive subsidiary, acquired a majority stake in UV Smart, integrating the business into one of the world's largest sterilization product platforms. The team comprises approximately 17 named individuals across leadership, engineering, clinical, sales, and operations based on the company's About Us page. Non-dilutive capital has included an EU EFRO grant (2024) supporting D45 market development.

UV Smart competitors and assessment
Company assessmentBroad incumbents
- Solventum (formerly 3M Health Care): Large medical device and infection prevention conglomerate offering Cidex, Attest, and other chemical sterilization/disinfection products. Competes with UV Smart on the chemical-vs-UV-C value proposition at the hospital procurement level.
- Olympus Medical: Dominant endoscope and endoscope reprocessor manufacturer (e.g., ETD, OER-Pro). Both a potential OEM partner and an incumbent competitor for UV Smart's D60 in ENT and gastroenterology endoscope HLD.
- Advanced Sterilization Products (ASP): Fortive-owned infection prevention business (now UV Smart's parent) offering Sterrad low-temperature hydrogen peroxide sterilizers and other HLD systems. Overlapping portfolio of hospital reprocessing solutions makes ASP both an incumbent competitor and the new owner.
Direct peers
- Xenex Disinfection Services: US-based provider of UV-C pulsed xenon disinfection robots for hospital room disinfection. Comparable UV-C core technology and healthcare customer base, though focused on environmental surfaces rather than medical device HLD.
- CS Medical: Specialist in high-level disinfection of transvaginal and transesophageal ultrasound probes, including automated probe reprocessors (TD 100). Direct competitor to UV Smart's D45/D60 in the same ultrasound/TEE HLD workflow.
- Nanosonics: Australian-listed company behind the trophon device, which is the dominant automated high-level disinfection system for ultrasound probes. Directly competes with UV Smart's D45 in the same clinical workflow and hospital procurement cycle.
- Tru-D SmartUVC: US company offering UV-C disinfection robots used in hospital rooms for terminal cleaning. Same UV-C disinfection value proposition and hospital infection prevention buyer, though applied to room rather than device reprocessing.
- Germitec: French UV-C high-level disinfection company targeting ultrasound probes and vaginal/cavity probes. Closely comparable to UV Smart in technology, regulatory pathway (MDR Class IIa) and target customer base.
- UVDI (UltraViolet Devices Inc.): Manufacturer of UV-C disinfection equipment for healthcare and commercial facilities, including surface and air disinfection products. Directly comparable UV-C technology applied to healthcare infection prevention.
Emerging players
- CIVCO Medical Solutions: Provides ultrasound probe covers, storage, and disinfection accessories. Adjacent competitor in ultrasound probe infection prevention workflows targeted by UV Smart's D45.
