Sanitizer
Sanitizer is a hardware design project developed for Plasma Innova, focused on creating a mobile sanitisation system using plasma gas technology. The project responds to the need for a compact, efficient, and adaptable solution that could be applied in different sanitisation scenarios. The design explores a clean and elegant physical language while integrating the plasma generator into a system that supports hand, foot, and surface sanitisation, maintaining a strong balance between functionality, hygiene, and visual clarity.

The project started with a clear set of constraints defined by the client, Plasma Innova. The design proposal was required to minimise manufacturing complexity, avoid the use of moulds, and reduce assembly steps as much as possible. These requirements strongly influenced material selection, structural decisions, and the overall design strategy, guiding the project toward simplicity and efficiency.
After several design reviews, acrylic was selected as the main material for the system. This choice allowed the creation of a sealed structure that minimises material contamination while supporting a clean and controlled internal environment. The material also enabled a visually light and refined appearance, reinforcing a simple yet elegant design language across all proposed applications of the system.
The system was developed as a flexible platform capable of supporting different configurations, including a plasma generator unit and sanitisation solutions for hands, feet, and surfaces. A consistent visual language was maintained across all variations, ensuring coherence while adapting the system to different use cases. Internal component distribution was carefully defined to support functionality, accessibility, and structural clarity.
The process included direct communication with the client through interviews, allowing key decisions to be validated at important moments. Ideation was developed through sketches and 3D modelling using Rhinoceros, followed by rendering in KeyShot to clearly communicate materials, proportions, and design intent. Construction drawings and internal layouts were defined to support local manufacturing requirements and ensure the feasibility of the proposed system.
