Modular cleanrooms offer fast design and installation, are easy to expand or modify, and have economical cost. Other advantages include wide variety of wall materials, easy to upgrade to higher class and durable construction.
Modular cleanrooms offer fast design and installation. The prefabricated cleanroom can be manufactured and installed 50% faster than a standard construction cleanroom.
Modular cleanrooms are easy to expand or modify. Components work like LEGO sets—easily disassembled and reassembled in the same or a new layout.
Economical cost – modular cleanrooms are comparable in cost to stick-built construction.
Modular cleanroom superior designs save money. The negative pressure plenum design with HEPA fan filter units eliminates expensive ducting to every HEPA, long lead-time custom air handlers, and costly annual balancing.
Modular cleanrooms offer a wide variety of wall materials. From economical vinyl, chemical-resistant FRP, static-dissipative aluminum surfaces, to stainless steel—modular systems can meet demanding customer's technical specifications.
Getting building permits for modular cleanrooms is straightforward and proven. Structural, mechanical, and electrical PE calculations and drawings can be provided.
Modular cleanrooms are easily upgradeable to higher ISO classifications. Additional HEPA fan filter units can be added to the existing plenum and more return air walls installed to support increased airflow.
Durable and reliable. When properly maintained, modular cleanrooms can last more than 30 years.
