AIRiWEAR exists to help people stay present, strong and fully engaged in life without preventable illness holding them back.

Airborne pathogens lurk in everyday environments, ready to derail the moments and pursuits that matter most. We deliver precision-engineered, accessible, wearable UV-C devices that effectively neutralize germs to enable confident, uninterrupted living.


U.S.-patented and American-engineered, AIRiWEAR was inspired by our concern for a vulnerable family member and created so you don’t have to worry like we once did.

For Gram

In 2014, engineer Nick Vukelja's grandmother underwent chemotherapy treatments for cancer. In her immunocompromised state and spending up to four hours at a time in a busy outpatient clinic getting infusions, she contracted a serious respiratory infection spread through the air.

It wasn’t the hospital’s fault. Viruses and bacteria are everywhere – even in healing spaces conscientious about cleanliness. In fact, Nick was pretty certain the HVAC system at his grandmother’s hospital used highly effective UV-C light for disinfection.

But between that sanitized air leaving the vents and his grandmother’s nose and mouth, there was plenty of opportunity for pneumonia-carrying droplets to enter her personal breathing space. The nurses shared Nick’s concerns and expressed worry about too many preventable infections impacting vulnerable patients.

While Gram recovered from her ordeal, Nick set his engineering skills to creating AIRiWEAR, the first wearable UV-C air sanitizer that delivers disinfected air straight to your personal breathing zone.

For All Of Us

Crowded waiting rooms, elevators, airplanes, packed public transit, business conventions, family gatherings…wherever life takes us, there’s an ever-present, invisible risk of disease-causing pathogens in the air.

And well all know infections don’t have to be life-threatening to be life-altering. 

AIRiWEAR provides proactive protection that keeps you showing up fully for the people and moments that matter most.
