BioHiTech Global, Inc., a sustainable technology and services company, announced today that the SeaDream Yacht Club completed its first voyage utilizing the Altapure AP-4™ high-level disinfectant system provided by BioHiTech as part of its Covid-19 safety protocols for cruising.
The SeaDream I yacht completed a 15-day cruise to Barbados where the Altapure AP-4 was utilized to provide high-level disinfection throughout the ship, including guest and crew cabins as well as dining areas, health facilities and other common areas. The SeaDream I will be sailing weekly out of Bridgetown, Barbados with the Altapure AP-4 onboard to ensure the highest level of disinfection for the safety of its passengers and crew.
"SeaDream is leading by example, showing the rest of the cruise industry how to resume operations with a safety-first mentality that will only enhance their luxury cruise experience," said Frank E. Celli, CEO of BioHiTech. "Passengers and crew can feel more at ease when common areas and cabins are regularly disinfected to a hospital-grade level. When combined with other safety protocols, SeaDream is creating a road map for others in the industry to follow to help bring back this important industry and we look forward to being a part of it."
