Introduction to ILIMEX

LIMEX delivers advanced air sterilisation and biosecurity solutions purpose-built for poultry and intensive agricultural environments. Our high-performance UV-C air-cleaning systems significantly reduce airborne pathogens at the point of transmission, helping strengthen biosecurity, improve bird survival by reducing mortality rates, improve weight outcomes, and strengthen flock resilience.

ILIMEX combines scientifically proven UV-C technology with patented engineering to achieve measurable reductions in airborne microbial load beyond conventional filtration or ventilation. Our system can monitor real-time air quality data to support proactive disease management. Our technology is trusted by respected organisations including the NIAS, Ulster University, Complement Genomics and AJ Forster’s.
