Cleanroom technology is central to high tech manufacturing.
Cleanroom, in manufacturing and research, is a dust-free working area with strict temperature and humidity control.
This is of vital importance in the manufacture of equipment sensitive to environmental contamination, such as components for electronic and aerospace systems.
A typical clean room has an atmosphere-control system that rigidly regulates temperature and humidity and bars entrance, by means of filters, of all but minuscule contamination.

ABOUT CLEANROOMS
Cleanroom technology is central to high tech
manufacturing.
Cleanroom, in manufacturing and research, is a dust-
free working area with strict temperature and
humidity control.
This is of vital importance in the manufacture of
equipment sensitive to environmental contamination,
such as components for electronic and aerospace
systems.
A typical clean room has an atmosphere-control
system that rigidly regulates temperature and
humidity and bars entrance, by means of filters, of all
but minuscule contamination.
Daniel Holbrook of Marshall University, traces the
origins of the cleanroom in his article 'Controlling
contamination: The origins of clean room technology'.

Development of the cleanroom stems from the convergence of
needs in several fields of manufacturing, health care, and military
requirements.
Small-sized mechanical and electro-mechanical devices brought
problems with dirt and dust to the forefront, particularly during
World War II.
As electronics became a military and commercial staple, cleanrooms
were created with:
• filtered and conditioned air
• controlled procedures and behaviours
• employee training
• special uniforms
• carefully selected construction design and materials
• physical isolation from other parts of the manufacturing facilities
ORIGIN OF CLEANROOMS
Diversity in practices drove the demand for
standards and fostered further developments.
By the 1960s, contamination control emerged
as a distinct field, with clean room technology
at its core.

4. HOW TO KEEP A CLEANROOM CLEAN
www.messungworkplacetechnology.com
To set up and maintain a cleanroom, an
extensive list of products and systems are
required.
They include testing equipment, specialised
consumables and apparel, cleaning equipment,
etc.
All elements must reduce chances of
contamination and ensure the environment
inside the cleanroom is as per ISO-14644-1 /
FED-STD-209E standards.
Furniture plays an important role too. Products
such as Laboratory chairs, stools, and stainless
steel tables are specially designed for use in
semiconductor, bioscience, pharmaceutical, and
board manufacturing in cleanrooms.

Cleanrooms are used across industries – for manufacturing and
testing in
• Pharma
• Clinical
• Chemical
• Biotechnology
• Defence
• Healthcare
• Electronics
• Food and other industries
Messung partners with clients in these sectors to help create
cleanrooms that meet ISO 5/Class 100/ISO-14644-1 standards.
Currently, Messung offers stainless steel tables, SS chairs & stools,
SS trolleys, storage racks, lab tables, lab tables with drawers as per
ISO-14644-1 cleanroom criteria, and provide unmatched
ergonomics and convenience in cleanroom applications.
Messung also offers Japanese-made ESD-safe cleanroom chairs
and stools from Uchida, and certified by ISO class 100.
6. Seat & Backrest
Cleanroom class-100 compatible upholstered vinyl
material
Processed material of Polyvinyl chloride and Rayon
upholstered on PU moulded foam with density
123Kg/m3
The material is tested for use in class-100
cleanroom and is designed not to generate any
contaminants
Wide plastic trim at the joint part of seat and back,
so dust from urethane cushion cannot escape
easily
Uchida's cleanroom seat cushion is covered by
dustproof cloth. Thanks to this, dust and dirt from
cushion cannot escape easily

7. Backrest Tilt with tension adjustment
Normal SS cleanroom metal chairs are non-
ergonomic and inflexible which makes sitting on
them and working for long hours in a cold
cleanroom environment a tedious task
Uchida’s lab chairs have a backrest tilting feature
that provides spring tension and supports the back
of the user
This is an ergonomic feature provided to help
customers sit and work comfortably for long hours

8. COMPLETE STEEL BODY
The complete steel body which includes the backrest
bar, the mechanism, the foot-ring (optional) and the
5-star base makes the chair corrosion resistant and
rust-free
Properties of Steel allows it to be used inside a
cleanroom without any issues
The steel body also allows the laboratory chair to be
cleaned very easily without causing any rusting
issue

Proprietary system is available in multiple height
adjustment range
The hard chrome-plated piston rod and spindle
pipe provide extra reliability and corrosion
resistance.
Class-4 cleanliness level is achieved
