Better Workplace Health at Nice Touch

Nice Touch, a creative agency run by Peter Giese, faced a common challenge: maintaining a healthy workspace in a small, open-plan office where airborne illness spreads more easily. With immunocompromised team members and no backup staff, illness outbreaks directly impacted business operations, delaying projects and reducing profitability.

Giese knew that better air quality was essential—not just for health and safety, but also for productivity, employee well-being, and the company’s bottom line.

The Challenge: Poor Indoor Air Quality Impacting Health & Business

Before implementing Violett, Nice Touch struggled with:

“The challenge for us—working in a relatively small shared space—was that the risk of getting sick was extreme,” Giese said. “And when I have a team member go down, it has a massive effect on our project timelines and profitability. My people are not replaceable. When multiple folks in the office get sick from each other, there’s just no workaround. It’s a balance between caring for my employees’ well-being and making sure I can run my business.”

The Solution: Violett’s UVC Vortex™ Technology

Giese chose Violett for its groundbreaking air purification technology. Unlike traditional HEPA filters, Violett’s patented UVC Vortex chamber destroys airborne viruses, bacteria, mold, and allergens in a single pass—offering up to a million times more effectiveness than standard filtration methods.

Key benefits that led to Nice Touch’s decision to adopt Violett:

"Effectiveness and profitability—those two factors have undeniably improved since we turned on the Violett device. When you look at the cost of the unit and the value it delivers, it’s such a no-brainer."

The Results: Healthier Employees, Improved Business Outcomes

Since installing Violett, Nice Touch has seen a measurable improvement in employee well-being and business efficiency. "We’ve had Violett for two years,” Giese said, “and without a doubt, we’re not getting each other sick anymore. We’re providing both a physical and a mental health bonus for our team. Our employees feel like I care—they know I care!"

As a creative agency, Nice Touch depends on in-person collaboration to deliver excellence for its clients. “Working together physically is simply not replaceable when it comes to creative projects,” Giese said. “Making my people feel safe in the office is important to me. And I need to get the most out of the dollar. That’s just bottom line stuff.”

Conclusion: The Business Case for Clean Air

For Nice Touch, investing in Violett was a game-changing decision. The air purification system has not only protected employees but also strengthened the company’s ability to operate efficiently.

“People are out there in the world doing their thing, getting exposed to viruses of all kinds,”  Giese said. “But we don’t pass it around at the office anymore. We’ve also had people come in during the COVID incubation period when they don’t know they’re sick, but they’re contagious. It happens—and they literally sit right next to me. It’s incredible that we have not had a single incident of the virus passing to another person.”

With its peer-reviewed technology, effortless implementation, and proven results, Violett continues to set the standard for air health management in workplaces nationwide.

“We just plugged it in, turned it on, and it worked,” Giese recalled. “We’ve had zero issues. "I’m an engineering nerd, so it's cool to see the air-quality metrics on the Violett dashboard in real-time.”
