What Are Cleanrooms?

Cleanrooms are specially designed environments that control contamination by regulating air quality, temperature, and humidity. Used in industries like pharmaceuticals, biotechnology, and electronics, cleanrooms help ensure that products are manufactured under strict conditions free from pollutants such as dust, airborne microbes, and chemical vapors. These spaces play a vital role in maintaining product integrity and safety.

Frequently Asked Question

What industries commonly use cleanrooms?

Cleanrooms are essential in industries such as pharmaceuticals, biotechnology, semiconductor manufacturing, aerospace, and food processing to ensure contamination control.

Cleanrooms are classified by ISO standards, with ISO Class 1 being the cleanest and ISO Class 9 being the least clean, based on particle count per cubic meter of air.

Air quality is controlled by High-Efficiency Particulate Air (HEPA) filters that remove particles from the air. Some cleanrooms also use Ultra Low Particulate Air (ULPA) filters for stricter standards.

Humidity control is crucial to prevent moisture from affecting sensitive materials, particularly in electronics or pharmaceuticals where moisture can cause defects.

Materials like stainless steel, glass, and special polymer flooring are commonly used because they are non-porous and easy to clean, minimizing the chance of particle buildup.
