CLEVELAND, OHIO, UNITED STATES, September 1, 2021 /EINPresswire.com/ -- Today, industry leader in decontamination devices, CelerPurus, has announced Northwestern Mutual – Northern Ohio to be one of its first customers. With the help of CelerPurus, the financial security firm will be introducing a decontamination chamber in its office to enhance both employee and customer safety.

“With all the fear and uncertainty of the past year, I want my employees to know that they are safe when they come into the office.

About CelerPurus
CelerPurus was developed when Dr. Scott, leader of the Theory Division at the Cleveland Clinic, identified a need in March 2020 at the on-set of the COVID-19 crisis. He had the vision to apply UVGI decontamination technology with a unique point-of-care solution combined with a novel 60-second decontamination application. He collaborated with engineer Ian Charnas of the Sears think[box] at Case Western Reserve University, and created the initial prototype that was transformed into an innovative and scalable solution for hospitals and businesses to use for the decontamination of masks and a range of personal items.
