About UWave
UWAVE designs and manufactures innovative UV LED lighting systems for industrial applications requiring precise photochemical processes. Founded in 2015 by optics graduates from the Institut d’Optique Graduate School, the French company specializes in powerful, flexible UV LED solutions for photonics, cosmetics, medical, electronics, packaging, and chemical industries.
Their product portfolio encompasses UV curing systems for photochemical reactions with UV adhesives, resins, and formulations, fluorescence lighting that excites materials to emit detectable visible light, and UV-C disinfection systems using germicidal rays to inactivate pathogenic microorganisms by disrupting DNA structures. UWAVE’s systems feature wavelengths from 275nm to 465nm with irradiance levels reaching up to 2,500 mW/cm² depending on the application.
Key product lines include the UFLEX flexible LED flood systems, USPOT handheld curing units, UCUBE homogeneous flood lamps, and UV OVEN compact irradiation chambers. Their systems serve both automated production lines and manual processes, with extensive customization capabilities to meet specific mechanical and optical requirements.
Based in Villebon-sur-Yvette, France, UWAVE maintains stringent quality standards for their made-in-France products, following comprehensive testing protocols throughout development and production phases. The company partners with EFFILUX, a European leader in machine vision LED lighting, to provide comprehensive industrial UV LED solutions. Their engineering team provides technical expertise and customisation services for applications requiring specific wavelengths, illumination patterns, or integration parameters.
