Cleanrooms are becoming more essential in a variety of industries such as high-tech manufacturing, pharmaceutical compounding, and other applications that require a controlled environment. Supplies for a cleanroom, regardless if they are critical area cleaning supplies, furniture, disposable apparel, or other types, must be manufactured and packaged in a way that makes them safe for use in a clean room environment.
The main focus of working in a cleanroom is to minimize the amount of contamination introduced into the facility. Often, the targeted contamination is particles. Keeping particles out of the cleanroom is usually accomplished by wearing disposable, non-linting cleanroom suits with accessories over street clothes to trap all loose particles inside the suit. Coveralls, gloves, masks, shoe covers, sleeves, goggles, and bouffant caps are all examples of supplies for a clean room that minimize the amount of particles introduced into a controlled environment.
Cleanroom Cleaning Supplies
Lint and other particles can be introduced into your cleanroom even from using the wrong cleaning products. For instance, an incorrect mop will leave behind far more lint and particles behind than is allowed by you protocols. Cleanroom mop covers are laundered in a special washing machine and then packaged in a ultra-low particulate cleanroom environment to eliminate any loose particles on the mop.
This also applies to all non-shedding lint-free wipes that are used to clean inside a clean room. Depending on what ISO class your clean room is, you are only allowed to use certain non-shedding wipe materials. We specialize in educating our customers about what supplies support or satisfy different cleanroom protocols. We have years of experience cleaning clean rooms and working with cleanroom product manufacturers that have trained us to properly use their cleanroom supplies. Not only will you save money by buying your high-quality lint-free cleanroom supplies from us at direct wholesale prices (see our best price guarantee on cleanroom supplies), but also our cleanroom consultants will help you understand how to use the supplies properly.
Disposable Apparel For A Cleanroom
The disposable apparel that must be worn every time you work in a clean room not only protects the critical environment from contamination from clothes, skin, hair, and nails, but also is specially washed and packaged so that the apparel does not introduce particles. Depending on the ISO class level of your cleanroom, your cleanroom workers will be required to wear lint-free, non-shedding coveralls, lab coats, frocks or, gowns.
