Thin 222 nm UV Lamps
From Eden Park
Eden Park’s lamps have led the way in flat panel UV innovation. Now, our Far UV-C lamp offers a way to inhibit the growth of harmful viruses and bacteria in densely populated spaces. Amid threats like COVID-19, it’s a science-backed solution to help return our communities to a newer, healthier normal.

Grady Trimble of “Mornings With Maria” spoke to our CEO, John Yerger, about the promising application of our thin 222 nm UV lamps for safely disinfecting populated spaces.
222 nm Technology: A Game-Changer
Not all ultraviolet light is created equal. UV wavelengths 222 nm and above are effective for killing or destroying bacteria and viruses. But unlike 254nm to 257nm wavelengths which, while effective, can represent significant risks to human cells, 222nm represents an effective and significantly safer alternative.
Eden Park technology separates a certain part of UV: Far UV-C or 222 nm. And it is that wavelength that studies show to be both effective at reducing pathogen concentrations, and safer for humans occupying the space.* Eden Park technology (in flat panel, thin 222 nm UV lamps) offers a vital element to help mitigate the spread of airborne pathogens in populated indoor spaces, including factories, submarines, aircraft carriers, planes, waiting rooms, restaurants and more.
It’s important to know that 222 nm UV light is not appropriate for direct treatment of people or for ingestion.
Effective
Tests show that Eden Park’s 222nm lamps could be more effective at killing the novel coronavirus than standard UV lights.**
eco-friendly
Eden Park lamps do not contain mercury, making them a sustainable option.
long life
Eden Park lamps range from 2,000 to 6,000 hours’ worth of lifetime.
thin & flat
Eden Park’s modular design makes them perfect for tiling, providing uniform illumination of large surface areas. And they’re easy to clean.
*As with any pathogen inhibition technology, each specific application and fixture design should be created in consideration of all applicable health, safety and efficacy implications. Eden Park has partnerships with fixture design companies that can assist in this process.
**Based on preliminary results gathered across five independent studies, the final results of which are forthcoming.
American Technology in Action
For the Global Good
Developed based on innovations by Dr. Gary Eden and Dr. Sung-Jin Park from the world-leading College of Engineering at the University of Illinois, Eden Park lamps are the result of years of research and engineering iteration, creating devices with specific wavelengths of UV light in a thin, flat format. This design opens the door for a wide range of commercial applications.
In the face of threats like COVID-19, our work-spaces and meeting places need safer, effective solutions that will allow us to return to a new normal. Eden Park’s thin 222 nm UV lamps, also known as Far UV-C, are made in Champaign, Illinois, for communities across the globe. They work to continuously inhibit the growth of pathogens over 100 times smaller than human cells. And unlike longer wavelengths, 222 nm cannot penetrate human skin. When deployed properly, it’s a safer way to use UV lamp technology, starting today.
A new Normal
Our businesses and communities need solutions that can bring us back together, safer and more prepared than before. If you’re ready to find out how Eden Park thin 222 nm UV lamps can address your business needs,

A Scientific Community-Wide Effort
All over the world, universities and labs are exploring Far UV-C. Dr. David Brenner, a pioneer in the use of 222 nm UV light for disinfection, has partnered with Eden Park in studies for the National Institute of Health and has released peer reviewed papers demonstrating results over the years. His findings, and those of other researchers, are extremely promising.

Eden Park offers a series of lamps that provide manufacturing and product solutions.
In the past, commercially available lamps were cylinders or tubes, making the illumination of large areas non-uniform. Our flat ultraviolet lamps are made possible through patented microcavity, microplasma excimer technology and enable more effective direct light onto surfaces.
In addition to our thin 222 nm UV lamps, Eden Park carries an assortment of lamps at differing wavelengths including 147 nm, 172 nm, 220-280 nm and 308 nm that address important needs across the commercial use spectrum.
Eden Park lamps can be easily tiled to provide illumination of large surface area. These products can have various geometries, beyond square.
172 nm Wavelength
- Front intensity of approximately 15 mW/cm2
- Approximately 430 milliwatts total UV output
308 nm Wavelength
- Front intensity up to 4 mW/cm2
- Approximately 115 milliwatts total UV output
Phosphor Wavelength
- Front intensity up to 10 mW/cm2
- Approximately 290 milliwatts total UV output
A Unique Design
Eden Park Illumination’s patented microplasma technology has been developed and honed over more than a decade. This enables each version of our unique flat, thin lamp to produce a specific wavelength of UV light that is ideally suited to a specific purpose.
Business Applications
OEM partners are designing Eden Park lamps into products for control of harmful pathogens. For three years, our 222nm lamps have been utilized in materials analysis and identification. With our newer thin 222 nm UV lamps, Eden Park partners are designing products for Restaurants, Offices, Schools, Senior Centers, Airports, and more . . .
