ATLANTA, June 2, 2026 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ -- ZONO Technologies™ and ZONOSanitech™ are pleased to announce new independent testing results of 99.9% reduction of the measles virus on surfaces during the ZONO™ disinfecting and sanitizing process.
Measles cases have been rising in the United States, especially among children and teenagers. According to recent data, the U.S. has experienced the largest number of measles cases in an outbreak since the year 2000 when the disease was declared eliminated in the U.S. The measles virus is one of the most contagious infectious diseases and can unknowingly remain viable on surfaces for extended periods. With increased awareness around infection control in educational and childcare settings, organizations are seeking solutions to help support their comprehensive hygiene and safety protocols.
"With measles cases rising, especially among children who are in shared classrooms and play spaces, we invested in additional independent laboratory testing and have confirmed that existing and new ZONO™ equipment kills 99.9% of the measles virus in a standard 38-minute disinfecting and sanitizing cycle," says Walter Mann, CTO of ZONOSanitech.
"Childcare centers, schools and businesses choose the ZONO™ machine as their partner in their comprehensive disinfecting and sanitizing protocols to help reduce the spread of viruses and bacteria that can cause sickness and absenteeism," says Tracy Doucet, President and CEO of ZONO Technologies. "With this additional independent test data, ZONO™ customers can be even more confident that their ZONO™ kills pathogens including the measles virus, additional viruses, and bacteria without the need to utilize harmful liquid chemicals."
The independent testing was conducted using standardized laboratory protocols designed to evaluate measles viral reduction performance. According to the test results, the ZONO™ system demonstrated a 99.9% reduction of the measles virus following the standard ZONO™ disinfecting and sanitizing cycle.
"This additional testing reflects our continued commitment to providing science-backed disinfecting and sanitizing solutions for environments where health and safety are critically important," said Mann. "As schools, childcare facilities, head start and early head start classrooms, ABA therapy providers, sports programs, and families continue prioritizing infection prevention, these results further validate the effectiveness and value of the ZONO™ technology."
"Independent testing validation is essential in building trust with our customers and partners," said Doucet. "As always, we remain focused on advancing practical, scalable technologies that help organizations strengthen their health and safety protocols and infection prevention strategies."
