Steribin

What Steribin does

Steribin is a privately held LLC founded in 2018 and headquartered in St. George, Utah. The company designs, manufactures, and sells ultraviolet (UV-C) disinfection systems primarily for airport security checkpoints and food processing facilities. Its product line has expanded from an initial airport security bin model (A1) to ten distinct devices spanning airport bin disinfection (Models A1, A2), general industrial applications (B1, C1), food processing (F1, F2, F3), specialty/water uses (L1, L2), and other applications (S1). Steribin holds several granted patents and pending U.S. and international patent applications covering its UV-C decontamination architecture, and assembles its devices at a Southern Utah facility using predominantly U.S.-sourced components.

The core technology is a chemical-free UV-C disinfection process claimed to eliminate 99.9% of bacteria and viruses on treated surfaces in seconds. Devices are sold as plug-and-play units with custom tunnel dimensions matched to specific customer bin or product specifications. Pricing is quote-based with multi-year contract service agreements available for ongoing maintenance, including bulb replacement scaled to usage volume and periodic component replacement. Steribin's go-to-market is direct enterprise field sales targeting airports, transportation security authorities, and food processors. The company cites a multi-year relationship with the U.S. Transportation Security Administration (TSA) since 2018 to develop and qualify its airport systems, and has extended its marketing reach through industry events such as the Dubai Airshow and the SMART Airport Conference.

In 2022, Steribin announced a merger with Vioguard to form UV360, Inc., consolidating UV disinfection capabilities under a single corporate entity, and introduced a new baby formula decontamination device extending the technology into powder food applications. Headcount remains small at approximately 10 employees spanning leadership, sales, engineering, manufacturing, and operations. The customer base is overwhelmingly enterprise and government, with no disclosed revenue figures, funding rounds, or named customer rollouts in the available source data.
