Hygienic furnishings for cleanroom changing areas and airlocks

A cleanroom airlock is a transition area between a cleanroom and adjacent zones with a lower cleanliness class. It serves to minimize particles and contamination when people, materials, or equipment enter or leave the cleanroom and to ensure the cleanroom air quality.

Several factors need to be considered when setting up a cleanroom personnel airlock:

- Hygienic furniture design: Joint-free, solid, and easy-to-clean surfaces made of materials such as stainless steel or HPL are essential.

- Functional equipment: This includes changing room furniture, sit-down benches to separate clean and unclean areas, lockers, shoe racks, dispensers for disposable items, and waste bins.

- Zone logic and material flow: The airlock must support clearly structured processes and help to prevent cross-contamination.

- Compliance with standards: Depending on the area of application, ISO 14644 and GMP guidelines (e.g., for pharmaceuticals, biotech, medical technology) must be observed.

- STORA plans and implements well-designed, standard-compliant airlock furniture and concepts that are perfectly tailored to your cleanroom environment – for safe, efficient, and hygienic transitions.

Hygienic, solid, and disinfectant-resistant materials such as stainless steel AISI 304 (V2A) and AISI 316 (V4A), HPL (high-pressure laminate) with sealed edges, and technical plastics with antimicrobial properties are particularly suitable for cleanroom airlocks and changing rooms. These materials are corrosion-resistant, easy to clean, and resistant to moisture, cleaning agents, and disinfectants—ideal for controlled areas where particle-free conditions, hygiene, and durability must meet the highest requirements.
