Mark Nathan, Founder of Violet Defense was a frequent business traveler for many years. Falling ill from the bacteria and viruses he encountered on airplanes, in bathrooms, and everywhere in between, he knew there must be a better way to protect us from germs.

After years of research, Mark discovered a unique way to combine a light source with a highly transmissive lens material to produce greater photonic energy. Because the lens can withstand direct and immediate contact with the light source, we have the ability to miniaturize the technology deployment. Violet Defense secured extensive worldwide patent protection for this breakthrough discovery.

In 2012, Violet Defense was founded to research and develop new products using this patented technology that can help protect our world from germs. S.A.G.E. UV, the first line of products hit the market in May 2017.
