Who We Are

Our Mission

Innovating eco-friendly ways to destroy biological and chemical contaminants for improving the living environment

Our History

SurfPlasma was founded by Professor Dr. Subrata Roy in 2009. Since its inception, our company has focused on transforming years of plasma research experience from the laboratory into the commercial market. We started in the UF Innovation District. In 2015, we moved to our new office in downtown Gainesville. Since then we have utilized our company's expertise, guided by Roy at the helm, to help bring the benefits of plasma technology to the world.

Our Company

SurfPlasma is a florida incorporated company innovating eco-friendly ways to destroy biological and chemical contaminants for improving the quality of water we drink, air we breathe, food we eat, clothing we wear and surfaces we touch. With portable, lightweight devices that destroy biological and chemical contaminants, our plasma clean technology is eco-friendly with power demands comparable to a light bulb.
