A clean room is essential for specialized industrial processes and scientific research, particularly in the pharmaceutical and microprocessor manufacturing sectors. These rooms are designed to minimize pollutants such as aerosol particles, dust, and microbes, making them indispensable in medical, pharmaceutical, manufacturing, technological, and food and drink industries. They are also crucial in biotechnology and medical devices, as well as selective manufacturing processes in aerospace, military, and optics sectors. The clean room concept originated in the 1960s with American physicist Willis Whitfield, who devised a system for highly-filtered, consistent airflow to eliminate impurities. Modern clean rooms maintain this principle with significant advancements. The cleanliness of a clean room is measured by the number of particles per cubic meter, with a typical clean room allowing only 12 particles per cubic meter compared to 35 million in an urban area. Key to their function are High Efficiency Particulate Air (HEPA) filters, which trap particles of 0.3 microns and larger, and sometimes Ultra Low Particulate Air (ULPA) filters for stricter requirements. Personnel follow strict contamination control protocols, such as using airlocks, gowning rooms, air showers, and special clothing to prevent contamination of the environment. Proper design includes a comprehensive air distribution system with downstream air returns, tailored to specific requirements. 1COLD Ltd offers custom clean room design and construction services across various sizes and applications.
