Environmental control of pharmaceutical clean rooms is essential to the manufacture of a quality product. Control of such conditions as airborne particulate, microorganisms, temperature, humidity, differential pressure, airflow, air velocity and personnel is crucial to protect the product from contamination.

Air filtration for cleanrooms is a necessity to business continuity in an aseptic environment. Hepa and Ulpa clean room air filters are used to decrease the amount of particulate in the air. Clean room air filters are characterized and categorized by their anti particulate abilities and their air flow rates. For all cleanrooms that require class 100 or below, it is recommended that the controlled environment utilizes HEPA filtration units for the entire space.
