? Key Takeaways
?️ Air change rate is the primary determinant of cleanliness class — Class 100 requires 240-480 ACH, Class 1,000 requires 120-240 ACH, Class 10,000 requires 60-120 ACH.
? Panel thickness is not the primary determinant of cleanliness — airtightness and surface smoothness are more critical.
? Airtightness is critical for all classes — continuous sealing at joints and penetrations is required.
? Surface smoothness and concealed joints with R50+ corners are required for all classes to prevent particle accumulation.
? Fire rating: Class A non-combustible is required for all cleanroom classes.
? SAMZOON provides cleanroom panels for all cleanliness classes with sealing solutions and R50+ corner profiles, supporting the full workflow for South China cleanroom projects.
