Controlled Environments & Cleanrooms

Manufacturing facilities for pharmaceuticals, biotechnology products, and medical devices are controlled aseptic environments that meet stringent standards for cleanliness, air quality, airflow, temperature, humidity, and other measures.

Cleanrooms in surgical units, isolation rooms, burn units, and other areas are more common than ever as health systems work to reduce hospital-acquired infections, as well as control the spread of airborne particles and microorganisms.

Cleanrooms are critical to the semiconductor and microelectronics industry. Contamination is a major source of manufacturing issues and product failure, so static, particulate matter, outgassing, and other contaminants must be controlled.

There is little room for error in aerospace and automotive assembly because a single defect can cause catastrophic failure. That’s why both industries must maintain controlled cleanroom environments for some manufacturing processes.
