“Millions of people worldwide suffer from allergies, asthma, viruses and a host of other issues including lack of sleep, all originating from harmful microorganisms and bacteria found on surfaces in the home environment,” said Dr. Sungjin Lee, physician and founder of RAYCOP. “RAYCOP products give families peace of mind in knowing their home is a clean, fresh and healthy environment.”
The Importance of Cleaning the Unseen:
According to the Environmental Protection Agency, a single mattress may be home to as many as 10 million dust mites and a multitude of bacteria and viruses. Unlike a regular vacuum, RAYCOP purifiers have a dual filtration system incorporating a primary filter along with a HEPA filter which is proven to capture 99.9% of common allergens like dust, pollen and mold. Additionally, the combination of UV light technology, suction and pulsating pads in RayClean Technology® effectively extract potentially harmful microorganisms to capture allergens and outdoor pollutants, leaving home surfaces sanitized.
The Evolution of RAYCOP:
Founded in 2005, RAYCOP was developed to address concerns about allergies and asthma symptoms caused primarily by irritants in dust, dirt and pollen. Dr. Lee researched and developed a unique and effective product designed to apply UV rays to sanitize and clean fabric surfaces such as bedding and upholstery. The resulting RayClean Technology® effectively traps and helps eliminate dust mite matter, pollen and bacteria that are usually unseen by the naked eye, but nevertheless exist all around living spaces.
In the years that have followed, many customers in Japan and other parts of the world have attested to the fact that using RAYCOP products have helped to create a cleaner environment in their home, and improved their overall quality of life.
Reasons to RAYCOP it:
- Designed with a dual filtration system including a HEPA filter to capture over 99.9% of common allergens and UV light to deactivate the DNA of potentially harmful microorganisms.
- Proven RayClean Technology® enables optimized synergy of UV sanitization, vibration, suction and filtration works to carefully sanitize delicate fabrics, resulting in a cleaner, fresher home and easier breathing.
