Cleanrooms play an important role in the Life Science industry - where even the smallest contamination can have outstanding consequences for a companies' research, production, and quality control of pharmaceutical, medical devices, and biotechnological products. Therefore, it is crucial to have a specialized cleanroom design that meets specific requirements and ensures the cleanliness and safety of the production environment.
In some cleanrooms, there must be no bacteria, while others require no particles in the air. Regardless of the type of cleanroom we work with, the overall principles are the same – they must have a high level of ease in terms of cleaning and be designed around the various requirements for air cleanliness. It is a prerequisite that lays the foundation for our overall design process.
Olaf Eskil Runstedt, Senior Architect & Cleanroom Specialist
Our architecture features a full range of cleanroom designs, including layout optimization, air filtration systems, materials, surfaces, and technical installations. We focus on creating cleanroom solutions that ensure sterility, air quality, and control of particle levels to achieve the best working conditions for our customers' research, development, and production.
Each type of cleanroom has specific requirements for air filtration, pressure control, temperature, humidity, and other parameters depending on the specific applications, and industries. These requirements are always a prerequisite for the cleanroom design, surfaces, materials, and flow.
Our primary responsibility as architects is first and foremost to create an optimal flow of goods and people in the room and ensure that the room's space is fully optimized. Access to the cleanroom must always be controlled to prevent contamination. Therefore, the surrounding facilities such as changing areas, airlocks, filtered entry routes, and access procedures are also part of the cleanroom flow and design.
Natural light is crucial for our well-being in the workplace. However, it poses a challenge when designing cleanrooms because direct sunlight must be avoided. One of our solutions is to create an aisle between the windows on the facade and the cleanroom. Increasing the height of the windows allows light to penetrate deeper into the cleanroom.
