About Atlantic Ultraviolet Corporation®
This year, we are celebrating 60 years in the germicidal ultraviolet industry. Our longevity is a product of the strong relationships we have developed with our customers. Since 1963, our standard has been excellence in manufacturing, engineering, sales, and service — providing each homeowner, business, industry, and institution with durable UV-C solutions to meet their needs.
Watch our About Us videoopen_in_new which chronicles our 60 years of germicidal UV disinfection.
60 Years of Manufacturing in the USA
Our business began in November 1963, manufacturing out of Long Island City, NY. Over these 60 years, we have outgrown our facilities twice, constructing and expanding buildings in Bay Shore, NY in 1975 and Hauppauge, NY in 1994. Our current 37,500 sq. ft. facility stocks an extensive inventory and ships throughout the world. Today, our UV disinfection models and lamps are still made in the USA from U.S. and imported parts.
During the COVID Pandemic, we remained in operation as an essential business and successfully trained additional staff in product assembly and packing. Our record-setting production during that time is an example of our commitment to each homeowner, business, industry, and institution.
60 Years of UV Equipment & Lamps Manufactured for Longevity
Ever since founders Hilary Boehme and Thomas Dituro established the company, its mission has been to construct UV-C products from stainless steel and the highest quality materials. Determined to rival their competition, Boehme and Dituro developed our STER-L-RAY®open_in_new brand of germicidal UV lamps in 1970. With the same entrepreneurial spirit, they introduced the company’s first ultraviolet water purifier line, SANITRONopen_in_new® (which is still manufactured today). With every new product, accessory, and replacement part, we continue their legacy of longevity.

Engineered with Excellence for 60 Years
From our beginning, we have been engineering our own products — from the concept stage to the finished model. When the company was young and hungry for business, we would create custom designs to satisfy any customer need. As our engineering department has grown, it has implemented stringent quality control procedures — continuing to improve product form while keeping the function first. Here’s to 60 more years of engineering water, air, and surface disinfection models with excellence!

60 Years of Sales and Service by UV-C Specialists
Where would we be without our team of ultraviolet specialists? It all started with co-founder Hilary Boehme, who used his knowledge of UV-C technology to drum up any business he could. There have been many talented additions over the past 60 years, who have continued to provide our customers with effective and cost-conscious solutions.

Founding Families Carry the Torch
Hilary Boehme and Thomas Dituro led Atlantic Ultraviolet Corporation® to establish its customer base, expand its team, construct larger facilities, improve its units, and introduce new product lines. Since their retirement, Celeste (Boehme) Kopp, Tom Dituro, and Greg Boehme — who have worked for the business for decades — have taken over the operation. Celeste, President of Atlantic Ultraviolet, states, “Our stability since 1963 sets us apart from other companies that have come and gone over the years. We’ll continue the legacy that our fathers started.”
