Next-Generation Sterilization.
Built for Space. Ready for Earth.

SurfPlasma’s advanced sterilization platform—validated in microgravity eliminates pathogens without chemicals, heat, of water.

Validated in zero gravity, now ready for everyday
surfaces and sterilization demands.

Tested in Microgravity. Designed for Global Application.

SurfPlasma’s Active Plasma Sterilizer (APS) was successfully tested in a NASA-funded zero-gravity flight, confirming its performance in space-like environments and advancing the system to TRL 7.

Now, we’re delivering this same breakthrough plasma engine to real-world applications through two form factors:

  • CPPR: Our commercial sterilization platform
  • Sterbox: A sealed chamber system for enclosed disinfection

Today's Sterilzation Systems Aren’t Built for Modern Demands

Surfplasma Technology

A New Class of Sterilization Powered by Plasma Physics

SurfPlasma solutions are engineered to serve the most demanding industries and environments, from spaceflight to frontline medical response.
Our proprietary system uses ambient air and a small power input to create an active plasma field that inactivates pathogens in seconds—without the need for chemicals, liquid agents, or heat.

  • Low Power (<3W)
  • No Chemicals or Residue
  • No need of plumbing
  • Compact and Scalable
  • Feed gas can be added advantages
  • Safe for heat-sensitive Equipment

Product Platform

Sterbox

Sealed Chamber. Portable Power. Unmatched Safety.

A sealed, chamber-based housing system that integrates our plasma engine for enclosed sterilization. Ideal for workflows requiring contamination containment, cleanroom safety, or portable multi-use environments.

Key Features:

  • Closed-system, portable containment
  • Preserves integrity of sensitive materials
  • Ideal for repeatable, high-throughput disinfection

cPPR

Commercial-Ready Plasma Sterilization for Real-World Deployment

SurfPlasma’s commercial-grade device derived from APS technology. Designed for real-world deployment in labs, clinics, and mobile operations. CPPR makes our sterilization engine accessible for health, biotech, and defense use cases.

Key Features:

  • Based on APS core
  • Operates on <10W power
  • No chemicals, no waste
  • Plug-and-play for OEM integration

Best For:

  • Mobile diagnostics
  • scalable solutions
  • MedTech device builders
  • Field-ready sterilization kits

Markets & Application

SurfPlasma solutions serve multiple industries:
Cleanrooms & Containment Infrastructure

Cleanrooms must maintain strict sterility between personnel access, equipment changes, and material handling. Traditional chemical wipe-downs can leave residue and are time-consuming.

Legacy sterilization systems are too bulky, power-heavy, or consumable-reliant for device-level integration.

Contamination and dust can degrade server performance; traditional cleaning methods risk damaging sensitive components.

Cross-contamination between experiments or patient samples compromises accuracy.

Space missions require ultra-reliable, chemical-free sterilization in zero gravity.

Mobile medical units and clinics lack infrastructure for reliable sterilization.

Military and remote units need safe sterilization for sensitive gear in austere environments.

About SurfPlasma

From Spaceflight to Global Impact

Driven by a passion to help build affordable, healthy living environments for society, SurfPlasma was founded by Dr. Subrata Roy—an American scientist of Indian origin. Growing up in India, he witnessed firsthand the urgent need for accessible, clean technologies, which continues to inspire his work today. A professor of aerospace engineering at the University of Florida, Dr. Roy leads the Applied Physics Research Group (APRG) and is a pioneer in plasma science, with over 40 patents and 200+ publications. He is a Fellow of the U.S. National Academy of Inventors, the Royal Academy of Engineering, and the Royal Aeronautical Society. SurfPlasma, a University of Florida spinout, is revolutionizing sterilization through cutting-edge plasma physics.
