Cleaning cleanrooms: Invisible particles, visible cleanliness

Out of sight out of mind Cleanrooms are fascinating places. This is where products are manufactured that require the utmost precision and cleanliness - from microchips to medicines. It is obvious that this production environment must be cleaned with particular care. The cleaning staff are faced with a major challenge: the particles that need to be removed in these rooms are invisible to the human eye.

Why invisible particles are so dangerous

Cleaning cleanrooms may seem unspectacular at first, as Cleanroom is almost always clean at first glance. However, precisely because the particles cannot be seen with the naked eye, it is all the more important that cleaning is carried out thoroughly and regularly. A strict cleaning routine and the right equipment ensure that invisible particles are effectively removed and that the Cleanroom retains its high quality and functionality.

Cleaning routine is crucial

A defined cleaning routine ensures that all surfaces and equipment are cleaned regularly. Proper training of cleaning staff is crucial to ensure that cleaning procedures are always carried out in the same way. Wiping movements are carried out in fixed linear sequences to avoid re-contaminating areas that have already been cleaned. It is important to apply the correct amount of cleaning agent and to dispose of or recycle cloths and mops after use.

It all depends on the right equipment

Special equipment is used for cleaning cleanrooms. This includes antistatic cloths for cleaning surfaces, mop systems for cleaning walls, ceilings and floors as well as special cleaning agents and disinfectants.

Our cleanroom training courses also cover correct wiping and cleaning.
