Containment & Cleanrooms

Cleanrooms are the enclosed, classified spaces used for processing bio/pharmaceuticals in a contained space with controlled reduction of airborne particulates, including microbes. Virtually every facility producing biologics or pharmaceuticals has at least one cleanroom. Here you will find information about cleanroom design, construction, operation and regulations.
