Raw Description
Product | EcoBay Care222®is a brand new medical-grade sterilisation equipment, jointly developed by Columbia University, with a patented optical filtration technology which not only retains the high efficiency of traditional UVC technology, but is also harmless to humans and animals, and is more effective in killing new coronavirus variants. This reduces the risk of infection, with 99.9% disinfection achieved within ten seconds. The device is small, quiet and odourless, with a service life of as long as four years. It is thus an effective measure for long-term health protection. Currently, these devices have already been adopted in hospitals under the Hospital Authority of Hong Kong. | Traditional UVC contains mercury and should not be used near people, while chemical agents for disinfection, such as bleach, can make bacteria resistant to antibiotics. In the long run, it will not only pollute the environment, but also destroy the ecology when used in large quantities. EcoBay Care222® is designed to be used where you need it, not where you don't need it. We advocate safety, hygiene and sustainable development, so that the public can experience this hygiene revolution. | Technology | Ecobay, a HKSTP partner company, is a leading-edge disinfection solution provider and system integrator. Our R&D team has always believed that "light" has the power to change the future. Our world today needs to live with the virus – “Care222” is a new technology that can sterilise the air and surfaces just by shining a light in crowded spaces. We are committed to providing the most disruptive and effective technology to keep our “Care222” community safe and healthy while creating a new world without pandemics. We hope to let more people see, understand and experience the potential of Care222 to solve social problems caused by infectious diseases, creating a ‘safe and secure’ future for our society. | Follow Us || EcoBay is committed to building disinfection products as a sense of connection with users’ families, friends and fans. Our core values are longer, safe and smart living, with hygiene of utmost importance as well. | By creating sterile spaces, antibacterial surfaces, and guest-friendly experiences, we combine the antibacterial effects of far-UVC rays and the digital intelligence of IoT technology to decipher the specific location, time, and associated epidemic transmission issues, thus enhancing the quality of life of a smart city.

Strategic Analysis

Executive Brief

Ecobay Technologies is a leading-edge disinfection solution provider specializing in Far-UVC (222nm) technology. Their flagship product, the EcoBay Care222®, utilizes patented optical filtration and KrCl excimer lamp technology to provide human-safe, continuous sterilization. As a system integrator and HKSTP partner, they focus on "Light Technology" to solve public health challenges in high-traffic environments like hospitals and smart cities.

Strategic Fit & Lead Score

Lead Score: 62/100 (Adjacent Tech / Strong Potential)

Why this Score? Ecobay operates in the Deep UV (UVC) spectrum, where material limitations are the primary bottleneck for efficiency and lifespan. Their current excimer-based systems generate significant heat and require precision optical filtering. 6C's diamond technology offers the world's highest thermal conductivity for lamp cooling and unparalleled radiation hardness for UV-transparent windows, which do not "solarize" (degrade) like traditional glass or polymers under intense 222nm exposure. Furthermore, 6C’s Boron Doped Diamond (BDD) provides a logical product expansion for Ecobay into chemical-free water sterilization.

6C Solutions Proposal

Application Area 6C Solution Technical Value Prop
Optical Windows Optical Grade SCD Diamond is transparent down to ≈225nm. High-purity Single Crystal Diamond (SCD) provides a rugged, chemically inert, and radiation-hard window for Far-UVC emitters that will not degrade or cloud over a 4-year lifespan.
Thermal Management PCD Heat Spreaders KrCl excimer lamps and UV-LED drivers generate concentrated heat. 6C Polycrystalline Diamond (PCD) spreaders (thermal conductivity >2000 W/mK) reduce junction temperatures, extending the device service life beyond the current 4-year limit.
Product Expansion BDD Electrodes While Ecobay masters "Light" disinfection, 6C can enable them to master "Electrochemical" disinfection. Boron Doped Diamond (BDD) generates hydroxyl radicals (•OH) for instant, chemical-free water sterilization—perfect for Ecobay’s "Sustainable Development" mission.
Next-Gen R&D Custom MPCVD System To move from lamp-based systems to solid-state UV-C LEDs (AlGaN), Ecobay will face massive thermal barriers. Buying a 6C MPCVD reactor allows them to develop "Diamond-on-GaN" chips in-house to dominate the future of miniaturized UVC.
IoT Sensor Durability Diamond Coatings Ecobay uses IoT sensors to track infection risks. 6C can provide ultra-thin diamond coatings to protect environmental sensors from the corrosive effects of hospital-grade cleaning agents and high-intensity UV exposure.

Engagement Hooks

  • Technical Question: "As you scale the Care222® technology, how are you addressing the solarization and transmission loss in your optical filters over the 4-year service life? Would a radiation-hard SCD substrate with >90% UV transparency improve your device's sterilization flux?"
  • Value Statement: "6C can help Ecobay transition from being a system integrator to a deep-tech component leader by integrating Diamond-based thermal and optical solutions that double the intensity and reliability of Far-UVC disinfection systems."
