Our Story

Health, wellness, and productivity shouldn't be Building add-ons.

Founded in 2016, illumiPure was created to transform indoor environments with technology that actively promotes health and wellness. We launched with CleanWhite®, a patented LED technology that evolved lighting from energy efficient illumination to lighting that benefited occupants as much as the environment, setting a new standard for healthcare, education, and commercial spaces. This breakthrough was soon followed by Air Guardian®, a active UVGI air purifier developed to protect indoor air quality automatically.

Headquartered in Houston, Texas, illumiPure is proudly vertically integrated, with all research, development, and LED manufacturing conducted in the United States. This commitment to quality and innovation earned us recognition as Houston Business Journal’s fastest-growing company in 2021.

Today, we continue to lead the shift toward human-first, healthy and safe environments, spaces that support health without compromising on sustainability or performance. Our core team of researchers, engineers, and business leaders has been with us from the beginning, united by a shared mission: to bring healthy building technologies to every environment.

Our Mission

Our Mission

At illumiPure, our mission is to eliminate the false choice between building sustainability and occupant health. We believe facilities shouldn’t have to sacrifice energy efficiency, low waste, or material recyclability to achieve high indoor air quality, healthy lighting, and safety. That’s why we invent technologies that deliver both; creating spaces that reduce environmental impact while actively supporting the people inside. From biologically safe lighting to filter-free air purification and intelligent building controls, our solutions help any project achieve its performance and wellness goals without compromise.
