About Cleanroom Manufacturer: American Cleanroom Systems

Who We Are

American Cleanroom Systems is a fast reasonably priced design build modular cleanroom company. Experts in ISO-4 thru ISO-8 cleanrooms.

Founded in 1976

Building cleanrooms for more than 50 years. Located in Rancho Santa Margarita, California.

Family Owned

Unlike our corporate and private equity owned competitors, we care about our customers, employees and the local community.

What We Believe

We build cleanrooms, but the thing we really sell is confidence. When your product depends on a controlled environment, you want a partner who picks up the phone, gives you a straight answer, and stands behind the work years after the install is done.

Being family owned shapes how we do that. We are not answering to outside investors or quarterly targets. We answer to the customers who come back to us for their next cleanroom, the employees who have built careers here, and the community we have been part of for decades. That is the standard we hold ourselves to on every project, whether it is 200 square feet or 20,000.

Manufacture. We build your cleanroom in our own California factory, so we control the quality at every step.
Install. Our own crews handle the install nationwide. Our experienced factory crews are fast and clean.

Giving back

Staying in one community for nearly 50 years comes with a responsibility we take to heart. Every year we support local charities and sponsor youth sports teams, 31 and counting at last tally. We have backed programs tied to the US Marine Corps, local schools, and service clubs. It is a small thing next to the work we do for NASA or Apple, but it is the part of the job that keeps us grounded.
