OnQ introduces anti-microbial retail display solutions

August 6, 2020

OnQ, a manufacturer of custom retail displays, has introduced antimicrobial retail display solutions, according to a press release.

"COVID-19 has been a wake-up call for the retail industry, causing retailers to reimagine in-store experiences to prioritize shopper health and safety," Paul Chapuis, CEO of OnQ, said in the press release. "The biggest challenge we see for our brand and retail partners is making in-store shopping safer without sacrificing the rewarding, interactive experiences that attract customers in the first place."

OnQ has teamed up with Vital Vio, Inc. to embed the company's patented antimicrobial LED lighting technology into high-touch retail surfaces, constantly reducing the growth of bacterial pathogens on these surfaces.

Unlike ultraviolet light, which is dangerous when people are exposed to this light, Vital Vio's antimicrobial LED light is specifically designed for continuous and unrestricted use around people.

OnQ's LED solution, powered by Vital Vio, is designed to attach directly to existing retail displays, to be configured as an overhead attachment to an entire display, or to be applied as smaller individual attachments to protect specific products within a larger display.
