Product Description
The HyGenikx HGX-W-10-F is a compact, wall-mounted air and surface sterilisation unit designed specifically for food preparation and food service environments. It works continuously in the background, using a combination of UV-C light and photocatalytic oxidation to break down airborne bacteria, viruses, and other biological contaminants — without producing ozone or requiring the space to be vacated during operation.
In a working kitchen or food preparation area, airborne pathogens and surface contamination are an ongoing concern, particularly in high-traffic spaces where staff movement and food handling create consistent hygiene risk. The HGX-W-10-F is intended to run 24 hours a day, complementing existing cleaning regimes rather than replacing them. It is rated for spaces up to 10 square metres, making it appropriate for smaller prep rooms, dry stores, chiller ante-rooms, or service counters where localised air quality management is needed.
Practical benefits for food operators include:
- Continuous passive sterilisation without disrupting kitchen workflow
- Reduces airborne cross-contamination risk in enclosed food areas
- Wall-mounted installation keeps floor and counter space clear
- White finish suits standard kitchen and food prep environments
- Low-maintenance operation with straightforward lamp replacement servicing
Installation is wall-mounted and straightforward, requiring only a standard mains electrical connection. The compact footprint — 400mm high by 135mm wide — means it can be positioned unobtrusively in most spaces. It is worth noting that coverage is rated to 10 square metres; larger preparation areas, open-plan kitchens, or high-ceilinged spaces would require additional units positioned to provide adequate coverage throughout the room.
This unit is well suited to smaller food businesses — cafés, delis, small restaurant prep areas, or food retail counters — where a dedicated hygiene measure is required for a defined space. Larger catering operations with multiple preparation zones or bigger floor areas may need to consider a higher-coverage model or a multi-unit installation.
If you are unsure whether this unit is the right fit for your space or need guidance on how many units a larger kitchen would require, our team is happy to talk it through with you.

Frequently Asked Questions
- The HGX-W-10-F is rated for spaces up to 10 square metres, so it suits smaller, defined areas such as a prep room, dry store, or service counter. For larger or open-plan kitchens, multiple units positioned throughout the space would be needed to achieve consistent coverage — it is worth mapping out your floor area before ordering.
- Yes. The HGX-W-10-F is designed for continuous operation in occupied spaces. It does not produce ozone, so there is no requirement to clear the area during use — it runs in the background as part of your normal kitchen operation.
- The main ongoing maintenance requirement is periodic replacement of the internal UV-C lamp, which degrades in output over time and needs changing to maintain sterilisation effectiveness. The unit is otherwise low-maintenance, and the wall-mounted installation keeps it accessible for servicing.
