Self-Sanitizing Changing Tables

Clean the Sky - Positive Eco Trends & Breakthroughs

Pluie is a Public Diaper Changing Table with UV-C Tech

— October 29, 2020 — Life-Stages
Pluie is the world's first and only self-sanitizing diaper changing table and it was created by a pair of mompreneurs who saw the need to improve public diaper changing stations to make them more comfortable, safe, hygienic and all-around modern.

Pluie uses a patent-pending UV-C light system that turns on when the table is folded up and not in use. As UV-C light is known to kill 99.9% of germs, bacteria and viruses, hospitals rely on it for sterilizing surfaces. On top of addressing cleanliness, Pluie boasts an improved design with a leak-proof cushion, a retractable security strap and multipurpose durable handles. For locations that lack access to power, there's also a non-UV version of the innovative diaper changing table.
