Clean rooms and hygienic areas

In sensitive production environments, cleanliness and hygiene are not an option, but a matter of survival. Even the smallest mistake – whether due to contamination, unclean handling or inefficient processes – can have enormous consequences: Loss of quality, damage to consumer health, loss of production, damage to image or even legal consequences.

In order to meet these high requirements, different concepts are used, each pursuing specific protection goals. This is precisely where two worlds meet, which at first glance appear to be different and yet pursue a common goal: cleanrooms and hygienic areas. While cleanrooms are primarily focused on particle and germ freedom, hygienic areas concentrate on protection against microbiological contamination and infections. Different approaches – one common claim: uncompromising protection against contamination and process safety.

Handling in hygienic areas and cleanrooms requires strict measures to prevent contamination and comply with cleanliness standards. This includes the use of suitable personal protective equipment (PPE) such as protective suits, gloves as well as mouth and nose protection, regular hygiene training and the correct use of auxiliary and operating equipment such as lifting devices.
Quick movements and frequent surface contact must be kept to a minimum, and tools and materials must be sterile and disinfected. Cleaning, decontamination and maintenance processes, including the maintenance of ventilation systems, ensure that cleanliness is permanently safe. These measures ensure product quality and process reliability.
