About the MAXVAC MEDI 8
The MAXVAC MEDI 8 is a professional-grade HEPA air purifier that pairs multi-stage mechanical filtration with fully concealed, ozone-free UV-C disinfection. Designed for continuous use in occupied spaces, it draws room air through a G3 pre-filter, a HEPA H13 filter and an activated carbon stage before treating it with an internal UV-C chamber. The result is a compact, low-noise unit that combines particulate capture with airborne disinfection in a single pass — making it a practical UV-C air purifier for everyday clinical and commercial environments. The MAXVAC MEDI 8 is listed on NHS Supply Chain under catalogue number MFB85198.
How the multi-stage filtration works
Air purification in the MEDI 8 is sequential. The G3 pre-filter captures larger dust and debris to protect the finer stages, extending their working life. The HEPA H13 filter then removes 99.995% of microparticles larger than 0.01 microns — the fine particulate, allergen and aerosol fraction that ordinary filters miss. An activated carbon stage helps address odours and gaseous contaminants by adsorption. HEPA filtration works mechanically, trapping particles as air is forced through a dense fibrous medium, which is why filter grade and airflow both matter for real-world performance.
Concealed, ozone-free UV-C disinfection
After mechanical filtration, air passes an internal UV-C stage that disinfects the air up to 99.999%. UV-C works by disrupting the genetic material of micro-organisms as they pass the lamp, reducing their ability to reproduce. Because the UV-C source is fully concealed within the unit and built to ISO 15858, the MEDI 8 is safe to run in occupied rooms with no direct light exposure to people, and it operates without generating ozone. The filters are tested to ISO 16890-1:2016 and EN 1822-1:2019, giving a clear, standards-referenced basis for their classification.
Built for offices, waiting rooms and care settings
With variable airflow from 130 to 800 m³/h, the MEDI 8 scales from quiet background operation to higher-throughput cleaning as demand changes. Intelligent auto fan speed adjusts output automatically, while a timer, sleep mode and remote control make it straightforward to manage. Low noise levels suit spaces where people work, wait or rest, so it functions equally well as an air purifier for offices, an air purifier for waiting rooms, a solution for classrooms and an air purifier for care homes and care centres. Priced at £450 ex VAT (£540 inc VAT), with a 36-month operating lease available and Amazon availability, it is supplied with a 30-day trial so you can evaluate it in your own space, and can be quoted in GBP, EUR or USD.
