The advantages of modular over traditional construction for pharmaceutical...
ISO standard 14644-1 defines a cleanroom as "a room in which the concentration of airborne particles is controlled, and which is constructed and used in a manner to minimise the introduction, generation, and retention of particles inside the room and...
Common cleanroom hazards you should know about
While cleanrooms are supposed to be the quintessential sterile space, there is no guarantee of a perfect, contaminant free cleanroom. However risk of contamination can be minimised by adhering to proper protocols including room pressure requirements, proper gowning procedures. While...
Introducing Fabtech’s Sterilising & Depyrogenation Tunnels
Depyrogenation or Dry heat sterilisation is a process used to reduce the level of pyrogens with hot air in temperatures ranging from 160 to 400°C. Temperatures depend on the duration of the process which can be either gravity which uses...
Cleanrooms 101
Cleanrooms find use in almost every industry where small particles of viable and non-viable particulate matter can have adverse effects on the manufacturing process. Cleanrooms vary in size and complexity and are custom built based on application. They are typically...
Protect your personnel and plant from contamination with Mist Showers
Mist Showers deliver a fine atomised fog to temporarily bind any loose powders to the user's garment and prevent them from becoming airborne or migrating outside the containment area during de-gowning. These contamination control systems also provide essential protection to...
Everything you need to know about VHP pass-through chambers
In my earlier post, I wrote about Pass-through chambers for cleanroom applications. In this post, we'll discuss VHP (Vapour-phase Hydrogen Peroxide) pass-through chambers and their importance. VHP pass-through chambers are an effective solution to safely bio-decontaminate and transfer small products...
Demystifying Pass-through chambers for cleanroom applications
Pass-through chambers or pass-through airlocks are used in a variety of industries like pharmaceuticals, semiconductors, food processing, electronics, aviation as well as research and development. They are primarily used to minimise contamination during the transfer materials between classified areas within a...
