With nearly 75% of the U.S. population living in earthquake-prone areas, the need for seismic-rated cleanrooms has never been more critical. R&D - Research & Development World shared insights from Mark Zabala on the critical considerations when designing a seismic-rated cleanroom. Read the recent article: https://lnkd.in/gTdMGaJj

🚀 We’re live at Interphex 2025! 🚀 The Interphex event is officially underway in New York, NY, and Nortek Air Solutions is excited to be part of the action! Today and tomorrow, we’re showcasing our cleanroom solutions and discussing how we’re helping the Life Sciences industry achieve precision, efficiency, and contamination control in pharmaceutical and biotech manufacturing. We’re thrilled to connect with industry leaders, innovators, and professionals to explore how our technologies can elevate manufacturing standards and ensure contamination-free environments for life-saving work. 🌱 📅 If you’re here, stop by and say hello! Let’s talk cleanroom innovation.

Regulations are tightening, and pharmaceutical manufacturers must ensure their cleanrooms are not just compliant, but also optimized for efficiency and contamination control. From flush walls and ceilings that eliminate contamination risks to advanced HVAC and monitoring systems, GMP cleanroom design is evolving rapidly. Is your facility ready for the next wave of regulatory changes? Check out our latest blog for critical cleanroom considerations to maintain compliance and operational excellence. https://lnkd.in/gMvJUfEh

“The environments in a cleanroom are constantly changing. Real-time monitoring is critical in maintaining compliance with GMP standards. By using automated monitoring systems that log data continuously, operators can track trends and take proactive steps to ensure that the cleanroom environment is consistently within acceptable limits.” – Mark Zabala As pharmaceutical manufacturing evolves, data-driven insights are becoming essential for maintaining GMP compliance, reducing risks, and ensuring product integrity. Investing in advanced monitoring today means a more efficient and resilient cleanroom tomorrow.

Nortek Cleanroom Project Spotlight! Semiconductor Confidential Client CHALLENGE A decommissioned building needed to be re-purposed and retrofitted including a 130,000 Sq Ft Class 1000/ISO 6 cleanroom space. New Automated Material Handling System (AMHS) loads needed to be designed in with higher specifications. SOLUTION 🛠️     Performed a complete overhaul of the ceiling system and performance audit of existing air handlers. 🏭      Multiple Clean-Trak ceiling grid systems, plenum types and forced return-air chimneys (FRACs) were custom designed. ⌨️      Building Information Modeling (BIM) Revit design services used to incorporate these changes and successfully re-purpose the existing structure. IMPACT ✔️    The Client identified this as their #1 profitability project for this time period. 💲      Through the partnership, the client was able to successfully re-purpose the existing building, adding a custom ceiling design that allowed AMHS and live loads to be met. Project value: $18 Million Let's talk about your cleanroom project today!
