BIRMINGHAM, Ala., January 27, 2023 (Newswire.com) - Coastal Alabama became the first college in the U.S. to install CASPR "Continuous Air and Surface Pathogen Reduction" technology to disinfect indoor environments 24/7, making them safer for students, faculty, and administration. Dr. Craig Pouncey, President of Coastal Alabama, started researching the most effective way to provide the safest indoor possible in early 2020. The staff vetted many air purification systems and discovered the medical-based company CASPR Technology, which was helping hospitals reduce Hospital Acquired infections (HAIs) in their ICUs. Natural Disinfection Solutions, NDS-360, distributes CASPR Technology and has expanded CASPR's products into the commercial market during the pandemic and now helps people in homes, schools, offices, restaurants, churches, gyms, cruise ships, and buses. 

CASPR uses Natural Catalytic Conversion (NCC) technology that uses the natural molecules in our ambient air to combine and form highly oxidized molecules to fill the air of a room and then settle on all surfaces. The oxidized molecules are predominately hydrogen peroxide and are completely safe for people, pets, and plants. CASPR takes a proactive approach to attacking mold, fungi, bacteria, and viruses, so as soon as pathogens are exposed in the air or on surfaces, they are being attacked, which makes them less likely to be transmitted. This technology is the future of effective disinfection in indoor environments. Coastal has joined schools like LSU, Texas A&M, and Michigan State to install CASPR, but is the only college to install campus-wide to date. Coastal Alabama decided to cover the classrooms, dorms, common areas, cafeterias, and offices. The first installations started in June of 2022 and now are complete. They have installed 300 units from Gulf Shores to Gilbertown. Some of the CASPR BLU TILES can be seen in the ceilings, but if not, know that some are working behind the scenes in the HVAC ducts that cover multiple areas. Coastal Alabama is now one the leaders in campus safety and ready for what variant comes next.
