FUJITEC’s Hygiene Solutions for Lifts and Escalators!

The crowd intensive communication in rather sealed environment of lifts and through contact with escalator handrails may provide transmission conditions for infectious diseases such as seasonal influenza and new coronavirus (Covid-19), to give passengers the opportunity to be infected.

Touchless call and air purify system for lifts
The designers & engineers of FUJITEC have improved the current lift buttons for touchless design, and developed ionized air purified ventilation system, to reduce direct contact with the button by hand and improve air quality in lifts respectively so that passengers will not be infected by infectious diseases as a result of the use of lifts, thereby protecting public health.

Application of lift touchless buttons and "Ionful" air purification systems
Already some of FUJITEC's existing lifts have been fitted with lift touchless buttons and "Ionful" air purification systems. It involves properties & estates and Grade A Commercial Buildings under the Government and major management companies, e.g. Government (Tamar) Headquarters, Electrical & Mechanical Services Department's Headquarter, Lam Tin (North) Municipal Services Building, Hong Kong Plaza, Imperial Cullinan at Olympic Station, Citywalk, etc.

FUJITEC's "IONFUL" Air purify system for lifts
Tested by Kitasato Research Center of Environmental Science, the system can remove 95.5% of influenza viruses when it is started: Coronavirus is one of the influenza virus so the system also has a certain inhibitory effect on the new coronavirus.

FUJITEC continues to test and explore other option(s) for improving lift hygiene: Fictitious button (Non-touch Holographic Lift Button Technology) (below photo). This technology system is still being tested at the headquarters of the Electrical and Mechanical Services Department.

FUJITEC Double Sanitation (UVC + IONIZER) Escalator Handrail Device!
Already some of FUJITEC's existing escalators have been fitted with Double Sanitation (UVC + IONIZER) Escalator Handrail Device. It involves properties & estates and Grade A Commercial Buildings under the Government and major management companies, e.g. Government (Tamar) Headquarters, Three Garden Road at Central, Hong Kong Plaza, Sorrento at Kowloon Station, V City at Tuen Mun, etc.

FUJITEC is pleased to be able to use professional engineering knowledge, innovation and control programs to make a little effort in Hong Kong's epidemic prevention work.

Courtesy Reminder: Maintaining personal hygiene, wearing masks and avoiding aggregation (e.g. by crowding lift) before a vaccine is available is the best way to prevent new coronavirus infections.
