Clean Room Flooring & Ceiling Guide

Vinyl flooring is suitable for clean manufacturing sites from Class 100,000 to Class 10,000 due to its sealed seams which prevent contamination accumulation. Sheet vinyl is commonly used in higher control clean rooms and is a homogenous solid vinyl material supplied in rolls to reduce joints. Raised access floors are most suitable for Class 100 and Class 10 clean rooms as they allow for unidirectional filtered air flow and are made of materials like steel, aluminum and composites.

o Vinyl flooring features sealed seams to prevent accumulation of contamination. This

material is considered suitable for high quality manufacturing sites; Class 100,000

thru Class 10,000.

o Sheet Vinyl is most common in clean rooms of higher control. Homogenous material,

which is solid vinyl, is preferred. Basically this material is supplied in rolls and serves

to reduce the joints, cracks and crevices.

o Control of electrostatic discharge damage can be addressed by the use of static

dissipative or conductive materials such as chemical resistant rubber floors free of

PVC, asbestos and halogen.

o In general the number of joints, cracks and crevices should be reduced. Appropriate

floor coatings could be applied to fill the joints/cracks/crevices. It is critical to avoid

selecting a poured floor or coating that will deteriorate with use and subsequently

contribute to the contamination – particle control.

3) Raised Access Floors

o Raised access floors are most suitable for applications in Class 100 and Class 10

facilities. Primary benefit is achievement of unidirectional flow of filtered air entering

the clean zone. These systems are available in steel, aluminum and composite

materials. The selection of the most appropriate material for your application should

be discussed with the supplier. The choice of this approach for clean room flooring

will be critical to the envelope and airflow system design

4) Ceiling Grid Systems

o Frameworks of parallel and perpendicular bars used to house filter and light fixtures

in clean room ceilings.
