Vyv's LEDs going aboard cruise ships

The antimicrobial lights made by Vyv are going to be placed on cruise ships following a group of new international deals.

Under contracts with four companies — MJM Group, LightPartner Lichtsysteme GmbH & Co. KG, Middleby Corporation, and Delta Contract SpA — the lights will be installed throughout the ships in areas including galleys, lounges, food service, elevators, office spaces and more.

Vyv makes non-ultraviolet LEDs that kill microbes that grow on surfaces. A recent study showed the lights are also effective against some viruses, and the company plans to continue that research.
