Services
Cleanroom Design
We engineer custom cleanrooms meeting USP 797/800 and ISO 14644-1 standards. Our designs incorporate modular hardwall and softwall systems for pharmaceutical, biotech, and healthcare applications. Each solution includes HEPA filtration, pressure control, and temperature regulation to maintain Class 10 to Class 100,000 environments.
HEPA Filtration
Our HEPA filter systems achieve 99.99% efficiency at 0.3 microns. We manufacture terminal filter modules, portable blowers, and custom housings for cleanrooms, laboratories, and industrial facilities. All systems comply with ISO 14644-3 testing protocols for aerosol challenge and airflow velocity.
Validation Services
We perform ISO-certified validation including particle counts, airflow velocity, pressure differentials, and microbial sampling. Our documentation meets FDA cGMP requirements, with on-site testing and comprehensive reports for pharmaceutical and healthcare facilities.
Air Showers
Our standard and explosion-proof air showers remove particulates using 25 FPS airflow with HEPA-filtered recirculation. Available in vertical downflow, horizontal flow, and tunnel configurations for personnel and material decontamination in BSL labs and clean manufacturing spaces.
Chiller Systems
We supply air- and water-cooled chillers from 1/4 to 25hp with custom configurations for low-temperature and cryogenic applications. Our systems include corrosion-resistant materials and explosion-proof designs for pharmaceutical and industrial process cooling.
