The ‘Safe Air’ system will be fitted to MSC Cruises’ new ship MSC Seashore

MSC Cruises is to install an air sanitation system called ‘Safe Air’, developed by Fincantieri and the International Center for Genetic Engineering and Biotechnology, onboard its new ship MSC Seashore.

The ‘Safe Air’ system combines UV-C lamps with the ship’s air conditioning system to radiate the air flow at its source with a short wavelength light, destroying organic particles. This will prevent the circulation of viruses, bacteria and mould throughout the ship, according to the cruise line.

The system will be fitted to MSC Seashore at Fincantieri’s shipyard in Monfalcone, Italy, where the ship is currently under construction. She is set to be delivered in July 2021.
