Recognized for Groundbreaking and Innovative
Building Maintenance Technologies
Energy Focus, Inc. (NASDAQ:EFOI), a leader in sustainable and
human-centric lighting (“HCL”) technologies including its UV™ by
Energy Focus series of UVC disinfection products, has been honored
with a FacilitiesNet.com “2021 Vision Award” for the Company’s
mUVe™ autonomous surface disinfection robot. The mUVe™ robot
delivers chemical-free and rapid surface disinfection, destroying
molds, bacteria, viruses and other pathogens with UVC light at the
254 nanometer wavelength, which has been proven highly effective in
breaking the DNA and RNA bonds of pathogens, rendering them
inactive and unable to replicate. Following the “Top Product of the
Year” award from E+E for the Company’s Suncycle™ autonomous
circadian lighting system, this is the second prestigious award
Energy Focus has received this year for its technological

The FacilitiesNet.com “2021 Vision
Awards” honor innovation and excellence in products contributing to
the efficient, profitable operations and management of
institutional and commercial buildings in the United States.
The FacilitiesNet.com “2021 Vision Awards” honor innovation and
excellence in products contributing to the efficient, profitable
operations and management of institutional and commercial buildings
in the United States. The mUVe™ robot received the award in the
building maintenance category, having been evaluated by independent
judges for its technological advancements, efficiency,
productivity, cost savings and tenant satisfaction.
The mUVe™ robot incorporates patent-pending technology with an
extremely powerful 475-watt UVC 254nm amalgam lamp. With
1-million-square-feet mapping capability, machine-vision-powered
sensors and voice warning systems, mUVe™ can be operated easily and
safely by a trained operator. It is designed to deliver 99.9%+
disinfection effectiveness against common pathogens, including
viruses, bacteria and molds, within the range of 1 meter (or 3.3
feet). Moving at a speed of 18 inches per second, mUVe™ disinfects
approximately 10,000 square feet of space within one hour without
using noxious, time-consuming, and hit-or-miss chemicals.
“We are pleased and humbled to receive this timely technology
award from a leading publication and voice for the facility
management industry as we are planning to launch mUVe™ sales later
this year,” said James Tu, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of
Energy Focus. “The mUVe™ robot was born out of the COVID-19
pandemic as part of our overall UVC disinfection product portfolio
strategy to provide effective, comprehensive, and chemical-free
disinfection solutions for spaces of all kinds. Given the advanced
capabilities of mUVe™, we expect it will help facilities with heavy
traffic, such as universities, hospitals, factories, warehouses,
and hubs plus other uses such as transportation vehicles, to
disinfect public spaces in a precise, cost effective, and energy
efficient manner. The mUVeTM robot, provides a powerful, additional
layer of safety measures to help prevent contagions in the
post-pandemic world.”
