Cleanroom Doors

Dortek’s Cleanroom sector Experience

Choosing the correct door system is a major factor in maintaining the delicate balance of a cleanroom environment. If a cleanroom door does not function correctly, the cleanroom could fail to meet the relevant standards and be exposed to a high risk of contamination.

 

Cleanroom doors.

Cleanroom doors are a crucial part of cleanrooms and are responsible for sealing the controlled environment. We offer cleanroom swing doors, cleanroom sliding doors and cleanroom hermetic sealing doors.

The ISO standard 14644-1 defines a cleanroom as: “a room in which the concentration of airborne particles is controlled, and which is constructed and used in a manner to minimise the introduction, generation, and retention of particles inside the room and in which other relevant parameters, e.g. temperature, humidity, and pressure, are controlled as necessary”.

The cost of air control in a cleanroom can be comparatively high. The energy requirement of HVAC systems usually amounts to 50-75% of electricity consumption in a clean production space, due to the high airflow rates needed for particular ISO classes. However, when a door is opened, a significant exchange of air (with that of the outside air) will take place. This can affect the cleanliness of air within the room until such time that the HVAC can recirculate and clean the air again.

Cleanrooms that have hermetic sliding doors can give consistent and fully predictable sealing and air leakage control over long periods. Hermetic sliding doors have a frame mounted seal that, along with special indentations in the track, uses the door’s own weight to seal perfectly against the frame and also the floor.

Hygiene, secure sealing, minimising pressure drops, protecting against contaminants and drafts, reducing energy costs, improving user safety and ease of cleaning; these are just some of the key issues that Dortek doors address.

Testimonials

What our clients say

Too often we don’t commend effort and hard work and in this case collaboration, so I just wanted to say thank you to the Dortek team for your very quick reaction and professionalism in assisting our on-site team, you and your team have demonstrated a real ‘can do’ attitude which I am very grateful for.

MD of a Specialist Operating Theatre Contractor, Major Dublin Hospital.

The Dortek team was an immense help in the procurement process and helped get us out of a pinch in a handful of instances. It seemed as though whenever we gave them a call regarding something time sensitive, they were willing to jump right on it. If any on-site assistance was needed, they were always willing to make themselves available and help us find both cost and time effective solutions. I can’t say enough good things about their help in making the project come together. Thank you for being a great trade partner!

Construction Project Engineer, US

Thank you and the Dortek team for continued world class service. As mentioned before the product is always great, but the service your team provides is even greater! The doors turned out very well for this project, and the owner is impressed with them as well.

Laboratory Designer, US

We have installed Dortek’s GRP doors for the past 12 years in 3 of our locations in Europe. The doors are ideal in production areas as they are without seams or crevices into which dirt and bacteria can gather as well as being very strong and hard wearing. I have found Dortek staff very technically competent, focused on working with me on presenting solutions to problems, and I regularly recommend Dortek to colleagues and peers in our industry.

Global Manufacturing Company

Infection control is of critical importance in our premises and, therefore, specifying the correct doors for our new operating theatres was crucial. We are impressed with the high quality and clean appearance of Dortek’s doors which are particularly suited to sterile areas. Their installation team were very professional, helpful and knowledgeable and we wouldn’t hesitate to recommend them to others in the industry.
