A new brand identity and logo for Schöck S


chöck will have a new look from January 2021. Innovation has always been a key part of the company’s


philosophy and the new branding is intended to represent a more authoritative and contemporary look going into the new decade. The ‘Schöck seal’, represented by two interlocking brackets, combined with the use of upper-case type, symbolises even more strongly the promise of delivering reliable, consistent quality; at the same time maintaining strong relationships between the company, its customers and its employees. The strapline will continue to be: ‘Dependable by design’.


Schöck’s primary focus is on the


development of structural components that make a substantial contribution to building physics – minimising thermal bridges, preventing impact noise in buildings and reinforcement technology solutions. Mike Bucher, CEO of Schöck AG comments: “Schöck has developed very successfully over the last 30 years. Our company is now more innovative and international than ever – and we want to present this to the outside world.” The most striking feature of the new design


Mike Bucher, CEO of Schöck AG


is the logo. The blue used in the logo is darker and becomes the leading brand colour and


the Schöck name is now presented in upper- case type. “The new Schöck seal stands for a clear promise. It is a symbol of quality and value, of reliability and security” explains Mike Bucher. “These are values that are at the core of our actions, even in times of digital transformation.” For a free copy of the Schöck Thermal Bridging Guide; the Schöck Specifiers Guide or to view the range of downloadable software, contact Schöck or visit the website.

Clean Air Series: UVC lighting that actively reduces the bacterial and viral charge


h


umanlumen, the lighting brand with a uniquely human-centric approach, introduces the Clean Air Series, a range


of UVC Air Sterilisation Units, providing a safe, reliable and sustainable solution for a safe ‘Return to Work’ for many employers and employees.


The Clean Air Series is a range of efficient


UVC lighting devices that actively reduce the bacterial and viral charge of the air in closed environments. This truly innovative design can provide


fast sterilisation for offices, classrooms, hotel rooms and healthcare environments. The International Ultraviolet Association


(IUVA) believes that UV disinfection technologies can play a role in a multiple barrier approach to reducing the transmission of the virus causing COVID-19 and SARS- CoV-2, based on current disinfection data and empirical evidence.


UVC Air Purification Unit The powerful UVC radiation is totally isolated inside the Air Filtration System (AFS) as exposure of UV light, of any type, in high dosage to the naked eye will cause potential long-term health issues. The system draws in contaminated air and removes all bacteria through a series of


integral filters and then delivers clean air back into the space. Each unit cleanses up to 3000 cubic square metres of open office space and is a simple plug and play system with no integration into the existing mechanical systems. The clean air units work like an air purifier,


but instead of filters it uses the UVC technology to eliminate the viruses. The fan located in the bottom of the fitting sucks in the air of the room and channels it through a series of UVC light canals that have the UVC lights. The UVC kills the viruses and the clean air is released in the room through a carbon filter. The carbon filter’s main purpose is to clean


the odours from the air, with an additional dust filter at the entrance of the fan, neither is essential to kill bacteria, this is the role of the UVC light.
