new products FIAT presents the Sanitizing Glove Box
A
utomobile manufacturer FIAT recently presented the Sanitizing Glove Box aboard their new 500 model. It is said to be an innovative and remarkable piece of technology which helps increase the hygiene on the surfaces of personal objects. To showcase how easy it is to operate, the brand has made two new online videos which explain, in perfect FIAT style, the importance of sanitising our everyday objects so everybody can fully experience the joy, light-heartedness, wellbeing and care of the Italian dolce vita. The “Touch” video stars a hand which comes into contact with unclean objects – like a shopping trolley, ATM keyboards, escalator railings – and then grabs a smartphone. These kinds of actions take place every day and often conceal insidious bacteria. However, the Sanitizing Glove Box is here to help. All one need to do is put their smartphone in the glove box and start the sanitising procedure.
In the second video, entitled “Washing machine”, the same hand puts a wallet, set of keys, sunglasses and cell phone into a washing machine. Once the machine is turned on, the sound of the objects banging around becomes more and more annoying. In an ironic tone, the claim states “There is a better way to sanitise your items” referring to the Sanitizing Glove Box. Available on the New (500)RED and the New 500 “La Prima by Bocelli”, the Sanitizing Glove Box contains a built-in UV-C ray lamp in the glove box and helps increase the hygiene of the
surface of smartphones, keys and other small objects. All you need to do is place them in the glove box, close it and turn on the system by pressing a button on the central console. An external blue light and a sound will inform you when the three-minute hygienic cycle has been completed. Posted on the brand’s social media pages, the videos “Touch” and “Washing machine” highlight the importance of sanitising objects so we can fully experience the Italian dolce vita in perfect FIAT style aboard the new 500.
