Cleanroom furniture and consumables

Every industrial unit engaged in the process of manufacturing high end electronic devices or in the field of complex scientific research work needs to maintain a particular standard of safety and cleanliness in the work area. Since a number of hazardous elements like contaminants, pollutants and electrostatic discharge are a common concern for various industrial genres like medical research, biomedicine, and aeronautics, specialised equipments for the purpose are needed. Besides the machines and equipments used in the manufacturing and research work, the industrial furniture to be used at the workplace also need to go through the safety and cleanliness check. Even the minutest of contaminants can force the production of silicon chips and hard drives to turn turtle, which so to speak can be passed on to by work benches and chairs that fail to comply with the safety standards set by the regulating authorities.

Since cleanrooms are those vital segments of an industrial unit within which the production and the research work are conducted. In stark consonance to the name, a cleanroom is an industrial haven that is devoid of any signs of contaminants and other hazards. And what induces such an immaculate work environment is a well planned assortment of specialised cleanroom furniture and consumables that are custom made just for the task. What you must understand here is that these are not your regular standard benches, but customised furniture designed for your cleanrooms.

In order to maintain the safety rigors of cleanrooms, workers are required to be dressed in industrial quality overalls, which in turn need to be stored in dust free racks meant especially for the purpose. This is where gowning racks and gowning benches come in. These can be customised to include hangers, wire shelves, S hooks, undershelves, dividers and other necessities that facilitate storage of special worker uniforms. The units come with bench accessories designed to make the gowning rack a perfect rack for storing industrial clothes away from contaminants and in the safety of a confined, well-allocated atmosphere. Racks with solid or perforated tops, in chrome or silver finish, will not only help you keep workers’ outfits neatly segregated, but also enliven a cleanroom. They can be anchored to the floor if need be, can contain heavy boots or other wearables, and come with supports and a backer to ensure everything stays in its place. There are several affordable industrial quality racks available in the market, so you can easily make your workplace safe and comfortable for your workers.
