Cleanroom products are vital when it comes to maintaining a sterile
environment. The cleanroom is a concept used when producing
pharmaceuticals and other sterile products, and it is also used in hospital in order to
protect patients with low immunity from pollutants such as dust or
microbes, which can seriously endanger their health.
There is a wide variety of cleanroom products that are especially
designed for use in aseptic environments. Such products are gloves,
sticky mats (adhesive mats), face masks, caps, shoe covers and swabs.
Gloves are by far one of the most important products when it comes to
cleanrooms. Usually made of latex or vynil, these gloves have double
role: they can prevent fingerprints on products (this, in the case of
cleanrooms that are designed for product manufacturing) and they also
prevent the transmission of microbes, since it is known that the human
hands may contain millions of dangerous microbes. They usually come in
boxes of 50 or 100 pieces and they are very cost effective, just like
the shoe covers.
The shoe covers are made of polypropylene, and their role is to prevent
contamination with pollutants that are located on footwear. Due to the
material they are made of, they are both very light and highly
effective. Face masks are also very important, since they provide proper
microbe filtration, which is vital in the aseptic environment.
The special cleanroom wipes can be either wet or dry, and they are made
of a special material since not all materials are compatible with
cleanrooms. These have special disinfectants that allow them to safely
clean surfaces and floors.
Besides the products mentioned above, an adhesive mat is also very
important. Located at the entrance in the cleanroom, the sticky mat has
the role of preventing the pollutants from entering the sterile
environment (microbes can be found either on shoes or on the invalid
chair wheels).
In conclusion, these products are absolutely necessary in order to maintain a safe environment for people who need i
