gowning room

In a previous blog about cleanroom walls, we discussed the potential to add more walls within a cleanroom. When a space requires a separate room or defined area, such as a gowning room or an anteroom, a qualified cleanroom supplier can adjust the modular cleanroom system to accommodate that need. If you’re in the early […]

cleanroom validation process

One of Technical Air Products’ most frequently asked questions is: How long does cleanroom installation take? It’s obviously important to anyone investing in a cleanroom to know how long it will take before the room can be up and running. Part of this process is installation, and the other part is the cleanroom validation process. […]

cleanroom behavior

When we think of common cleanroom contaminants, what comes to mind is dust, lint, fibers, and a variety of other particulate matter. Yet how do those contaminants enter the cleanroom? It’s not by osmosis – the airtight walls prevent that. People are the most common source of contamination. They bring it with them when they […]

In several previous blog pieces we have talked about different types of isolation rooms, including positive air pressure rooms and negative air pressure rooms. In this blog we will talk about anterooms and how they can be used with other types of isolation rooms to maintain cleanliness within the room.  What Is an Anteroom?  Within a healthcare setting, […]

prevent contamination

The focus of cleanroom design is rarely on its lighting, but this is a crucial element of cleanroom operation. Proper lighting makes it possible for workers to do their jobs correctly, control contamination, and maintain the temperature within the room. Energy efficient lighting also lowers operating costs, which is a concern for any organization. What […]

replace a cleanroom

A cleanroom is an investment in your organization’s productivity, efficiency, and compliance. Naturally, you want to get the most value and lifespan out of that investment. However, there are circumstances where replacing or upgrading your cleanroom is the best solution to meet your evolving operational or regulatory needs. So how do you know when it’s […]

isolation rooms

When designing controlled healthcare or laboratory environments, understanding the different types of isolation rooms is essential. Each type—negative pressure, positive pressure, quarantine and anteroom—is engineered to protect either people inside the room or those in the surrounding environment from airborne contaminants. Modular solutions offer flexibility and compliance-friendly design for these specialized spaces. Let’s talk about […]

negative air pressure rooms

In addition to manufacturing softwall and rigidwall modular cleanrooms, Technical Air Products also produces specialized isolation rooms designed for controlled environments. Among these, negative air pressure rooms play a critical role in facilities where containing airborne contaminants is essential for safety. But what exactly are negative air pressure rooms, and how do they work? Understanding […]

ULPA vs. HEPA fan filter units

When it comes to cleanroom functionality, few components are as essential – or as overlooked – as the fan filter unit (FFU). These ceiling-mounted units are the heart of clean air circulation, responsible for removing airborne contaminants and maintaining the strict particulate counts required by ISO cleanroom classifications. Here we’ll explain how a fan filter […]

best cleanroom ceiling

When designing a cleanroom, most of the attention goes to floors, walls, filtration systems, and furnishings, but don’t overlook one of the most critical components: the cleanroom ceiling. This often-unnoticed surface plays a major role in contamination control and airflow management. Selecting the best cleanroom ceiling grid system is essential to maintaining cleanliness, reducing maintenance […]
