Created specifically for A & B Grade cleanroom environments where compliance with ISO 14644 is critical, Hygienox tables from Teknomek are manufactured from 316L grade stainless steel as standard: offering customers the ultimate in future proof, hygienic equipment.
“Our customers have told us they need specialist products that support aseptic environments where effective particle management and contamination control is critical to support efficient risk management,” explained Sue Springett, Commercial Manager at Teknomek. “With our new range of Hygienox tables we have addressed every concern raised and exceeded the ISO 14644 Class 5 standard to provide a superior product.”
Meeting ISO 14644 standards now means using higher concentrations of Chlorine and increased use of hydrogen peroxide. Hygienox tables have a range of intelligent design and specification features to mitigate the risk of rouging or tiger stripes while reducing contamination risk and supporting improved clean down productivity.
“Harsh cleaning chemicals can reduce the lifespan of furniture built using 304-grade stainless steel, leading to surface corrosion and even rust” continued Sue Springett. “Hygienox tables are manufactured from 316L-grade stainless steel because it is more robust against pitting and crevice corrosion by even the harshest of chemicals.”
In addition, the 316L stainless steel used in Hygienox furniture has an ultra-smooth finish. Chemicals can pool on coarser surfaces if not thoroughly removed with IPA wipes and, over time, the trace amounts of these chemicals will corrode, stain and contaminate the passive layer of the 304 stainless steel leaving tiger stripes. “The ultra-smooth finish of our tables means they are easier to clean,” continued Sue Springett. “The lower surface roughness of the steel allows for fewer microscopic grooves where harsh chemical cleaning fluids can lurk and corrode the furniture. The ultra-smooth finish is also less abrasive; preventing friction between furniture and any surfaces it may come into contact with, such as gloves or equipment. Any abrasive contact could cause particles to be released into the atmosphere and pose a risk to hygiene.”
As well as the materials used, it is the fact that all Hygienox cleanroom furniture is designed with obsessive attention to detail that makes these tables noteworthy:
In the words of David Mitchell of Cambridge Pharma Ltd: “These new Hygienox tables from Teknomek genuinely are a game-changer for our industry. They look amazing, with their open corners, lack of edges and the quality of welding is exceptional. I have used Teknomek for years, and products are always great quality and fit for purpose. These tables are a significant step up from the standard range: perfect for A & B grade cleanroom environments.”
Hygienox tables are available in three sizes and can be selected as static or mobile. Bespoke variations can also be created to suit the specific needs of any cleanroom.
