About Cleanrooms

Companies that manufacture Medical Devices or Medicinal Products must ensure their product are safe for patients. Suitable controlled manufacturing suites reduce the chances of contamination of the product. A cleanroom facility is a complex construction in which a low concentration of airborne particulates is maintained. For medical development various standards & guidelines apply, including: US FED STD 209E, ISO14644-1, GMP.

Cleanroom management

To ensure the continued safe and effective use of cleanrooms it’s rudimental that these areas are designed, constructed, and maintained according to high specifications.

  • During the design phase for instance, the types of building materials and air handling units can have a big impact on the usability and lifetime of a cleanroom. Moreover, specific product categories, for instance biologics require abrasive cleaning agents which can damage materials.
  • A clear and enforced facility layout and flow of material and personnel is a important tool in preventing cross-contamination.
  • During operation it is paramount that all operators are aware of the impact they can have on the cleanroom environment by their behaviour. Strict gowning, behaviour, cleaning, monitoring and validation procedures need to be in place. And all personnel needs to be trained and qualified to be able to work in these environments safely and effectively.
