Company Description

The Xenex mission is to save lives and reduce suffering by destroying deadly microorganisms that can cause hospital acquired infections.

Xenex was founded by Dr. Julie Stachowiak and Dr. Mark Stibich, both holding PhDs in epidemiology from Johns Hopkins. The Xenex mission is to save lives and reduce suffering by destroying deadly microorganisms that can cause hospital acquired infections (HAIs). Xenex’s Pulsed Xenon Full Spectrum UV Disinfection Solution reduces the bacterial load often associated with an increased risk for HAIs. Since their commercial launch in June 2010, Xenex devices are now included in infection control protocols in almost three hundred hospitals throughout the U.S. Traditional UV disinfection methodologies primarily achieve one type of cellular damage. Pulsed Xenon Full Spectrum UV disinfection Robots leverage the full germicidal UV spectrum, achieving four primary methods of cellular damage. The Xenex Germ-Zapping Robot contains NO TOXIC MERCURY. Xenex is the only UV disinfection provider with multiple hospital customers reporting fewer infections in peer reviewed published studies.
