About TUVAS
TUVAS GmbH, based in Rausdorf in Thuringia, develops and distributes the TUVAS hygiene airlock, a UV-C disinfection device for reusable containers such as coffee mugs, reusable cups and shakers. The compact plug-&-play device disinfects containers made of metal and plastic in a contact-free manner, within seconds, and without chemicals or cleaning agents; according to the manufacturer, 99.9% of germs are killed. This works via energy-saving UV-C LEDs and a rotation principle: insert container, disinfect, remove. Target industries include gastronomy, bakeries, canteens, universities, gyms, retail and transport hubs, where the solution supports compliance with the reusable packaging obligation under the Packaging Act (VerpackG2). The device is sold via purchase, leasing or rental (€149/month, minimum term 2 years) including service and transport; TUVAS also offers pilot projects and trial periods.
