The project
This PanelBloc® cleanroom has been installed at the premises of D&D Kunststofbewerking, in Geldrop. The ISO class 7 cleanroom has been put into use for cleaning, assembly and packaging of high-tech plastic components. As Ronny Moors (Managing Director) mentioned in our customer interview: “Having an in-house cleanroom gives us more control and flexibility” This turned out to be the case and after the construction of the first cleanroom in 2019, it soon became apparent that there was a need for more cleanroom capacity in the form of a 70m2 PanelBloc® cleanroom.
Utilizing the patented PanelBloc® system, all walls and ceiling are fully flush which accommodate fast and maximum cleaning of the areas and allow for maximum cleanliness performance. With its H14 HEPA filtration and innovative design, the cleanroom achieves an ISO class 7classification in the main area.
As with the first cleanroom built in 2019, the placement of an ultrasonic cleaning line had to be taken into account when determining the layout. In order to protect the products in the cleanroom against contamination from the industrial cleaning line, various areas have been created. A pass through hatch has been installed between the cleaning/goods area and the main area. In the main area, the products are assembled and packaged according to ASML grade 4 specification. Due to its performance, the cleanroom is also suitable for ASML grade 2 activities.
All areas are accessible via self-closing swing doors. This application ensures that the contamination transfer between the different areas is kept to a minimum. The cleanroom features an integrated gowning room. A step-over-bench forms the physical barrier between the “dirty” and clean zone of the clean room.
Designed for employees
The internal height of 2.7m gives a spacious feeling and large windows with double safety glass have been implemented to allow ambient light to enter the cleanroom, this ensures maximum comfort for operators. A high capacity air conditioning system offers heating and cooling capabilities.
In addition to the full design, manufacture and installation of the cleanroom, ProCleanroom has supplied a wide range of cleanroom furniture and accessories. A full line of special clothing and accessories has been provided for the cleanroom operators, such as coveralls, mobcaps, gloves, overshoes,
