Who are we?
Dimer LLC is a team of infection preventionists, physicians, aerospace engineers and
professionals. Dr. Arthur Kreitenberg, Dimer Co-founder and CTO is a serial inventor and holds
more than a dozen utility patents for his unique application of Ultra-Violet C light targeting
fomites from sports balls (volleyballs and basketballs) to commonly touched surfaces on
airplanes. Kreitenberg’s GermFalcon, a device specifically designed for airlines to meet the
challenge of improved global health while providing passengers with a safer, more hygienic
cabin. The GermFalcon has now evolved into the UV-Hammer™ to meet the serious, deadly
and costly healthcare problem of HAIs (Healthcare Associated Infections).
The UV-Hammer is safe, sturdy and compact. It has a single limb with strategically placed UV
lamps. The operator is protected by a patented shield. The UV-Hammer’s mobility, variably
extensible limb make it unique among UV disinfecting solutions currently available in the
healthcare space. Dimer LLC is currently completing the first iteration of the UV-Hammer, for
fast, efficient and cost-effective, terminal whole-room disinfection.

2. Market and Demand
Hospitals and health providers are in a battle with HAIs, some are antibiotic resistant infections,
some are virus with no known cure. Sometimes these pathogens are referred to as “nightmare
bacteria” or “superbugs”.
● “With an Estimated one in 25 hospitalized patients having at least one hospital
associated infection on any given day, this serious issue continues to cause morbidity
and deaths while adding billions to health care costs” CDC 2018
● Medicare penalizes hospitals for HAI’s and readmissions
○ Cost of HAIs is around $20 Billion annually.
○ Penalties increased for all hospitals in 2018, set to increase again in 2019
○ Studies show UV whole room programs reduced 30-50% of HAI’s in 12 hospitals
