What is that fresh, crisp scent you notice after using ROSS, the Rapid Ozone Sleeve Sanitizer?
That’s ozone—nature’s powerful sanitizer. It’s the same smell that fills the air after a thunderstorm, caused by ozone created by lightning.
While ROSS doesn’t use lightning, it generates ozone through a safe and controlled coronal discharge method. This method produces ozone gas inside the enclosed chamber without any external supply—just clean, dry air and electricity.
How does ozone work?
Ozone works by oxidizing the outer membranes of bacterial cells. It disrupts their structure, breaks down their walls, and causes the bacteria to die—especially the ones that cause odor in prosthetic liners.
The ozone behaves like a dry vapor, clinging to the entire surface of the liner and reaching areas traditional cleaning methods like rubbing alcohol and soap will miss. The distinct “blue” smell is a sign that ozone has done its job, and it quickly fades after the cycle ends. That is because ozone has a very short lifespan and dissipates back on oxygen quite quickly.
Is ozone safe for prosthetic liners?
Importantly, ozone has been tested on all three major prosthetic liner materials—silicone, thermoplastic elastomer (TPE), and polyurethane (PU). These materials are inert to ozone at the levels used in ROSS, meaning they stay safe and intact with regular use.
ROSS is engineered with patented ozone control and safety systems and carries a UL safety certification, which is legally required for ozone-emitting devices.
In short, ROSS captures the power of nature’s thunder in a safe, compact device—keeping your prosthetic liner cleaner, fresher, and odor-free.
ROSS is Clinically the BEST.
In a study conducted at a globally accredited Contract Research Organization (CRO), ROSS achieved an impressive bacterial load reduction average of 5.1 log, far exceeding the efficacy of traditional methods like rubbing alcohol and antibacterial soap.
This cutting-edge device offers a superior solution for maintaining prosthetic liner cleanliness and comfort.
