Püre, a manufacturer of disinfectant products, has developed a new sanitising closet that uses UV light to help retailers disinfect garments, destroying 99.9% of pathogens, while keeping retail tags intact.
As retailer dressing rooms are at high risk for cross-contamination, the new PüreCouture device is designed to sanitise garments between fittings, the firm says.

The 3.5 sq ft device offers a range of cycle options including quick sanitise to complete a cycle for small items in two minutes and can hold up to 20 garments with the combination use of hanging and rack space.
“PüreCouture gives retailers a turn-key solution to ensure employee and customer safety while abiding by best practices for serving customers. We see this as a new product with immediate needs as well as a long-term alternative to dry cleaning and manual sterilisation of merchandise,” says Micaela Johnston, president and CEO of Püre.
The device is also available for in-home use as an alternative to traditional dry cleaning, using UV-C light, vibration, and gentle steam in place of chemical treatments.
Püre says the process is safe for the colour, brightness, and care of delicate materials including silk, cashmere, and wool.
