Royal Theater Carré in Amsterdam and Theater De Ruchte in Someren are pioneering the use of Philips UV-C disinfection upper air luminaires in theaters

Philips is helping theatregoers in the Netherlands to again do what they love most: view top performances in some of the nation’s most renowned theatres. Philips is equipping Royal Theatre Carré in the centre of Amsterdam and Theater De Ruchte in Someren with almost 100 Philips UV-C disinfection upper air luminaires.

UV-C technology provides an additional layer of protection against Covid-19 transmission on top of existing governmental guidelines

The Netherlands is gradually lifting COVID-19-related lockdown measures, including reopening of cultural venues to the general public, while still taking the 1.5-meters guidance into account. By installing UV-C disinfection upper air luminaires, these two Dutch theatres are showing to other venues around the globe how UV-C can contribute to welcoming back their guests in safer spaces.
