TOKYO, May 08 (Pulse News Wire) – Wolves Hand CO.,LTD. (194A.T) announced today the launch of its new air purification device, Photo Barrier405, developed through collaboration with its subsidiaries Aoi Medical and Cartec.
The product utilizes advanced photocatalytic technology to decompose bacteria, viruses, and odor components, supporting environmental maintenance and hygiene management in medical facilities. The Photo Barrier405 was conceptualized based on insights accumulated from daily veterinary practice within Wolves Hand's network of animal hospitals. It combines Aoi Medical’s expertise in medical devices and Cartec’s patented high-efficiency photocatalytic technology, which uses visible light at 405 nm wavelength rather than UV light. Key features include the ability to break down volatile organic compounds like formaldehyde, reduce fever neutropenia in cancer patients, deactivate highly pathogenic avian influenza virus, and decompose Streptococcus pneumoniae.
Sales of Photo Barrier405 began on May 08, 2026. The impact on consolidated sales revenue is expected to be minor initially but could contribute significantly to long-term performance as a high-value-added product targeted primarily at veterinary clinics and medical facilities. Aoi Medical, established on July 07, 2025, with a capital of ¥10,000, will lead the distribution efforts, gradually introducing the device across Wolves Hand’s group of animal hospitals while expanding sales to external partners nationwide. Wolves Hand plans to conduct continuous efficacy evaluations and expand sales to various medical institutions.
Any future developments related to this initiative will be disclosed promptly.
