Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)
Q: What is a cleanroom?
A: A cleanroom is a controlled environment where the level of airborne particles, contaminants, and microbes is kept to a minimum. They are commonly used in electronics, healthcare, and pharmaceuticals. Greenwipes® Cleanroom Wipes are designed to help maintain this controlled environment by reducing lint, dust, and static discharge.
Q: What are cleanroom wipes?
Cleanroom wipes are special wipes made from materials that do not produce lint or contaminants. They are used in controlled environments like semiconductor labs, biotech labs, and pharmaceutical facilities. Greenwipes® PRO Cleanroom Wipes are made for ISO Class 6 (Class 1000) cleanrooms and higher. They are safe for industries with strict regulations.
Q: What does ROHS compliant mean?
A: ROHS stands for Restriction of Hazardous Substances. If a product is ROHS compliant, it means it does not contain hazardous materials like lead, mercury, or cadmium. Greenwipes® PRO Cleanroom Wipes are ROHS certified, making them safer for both users and the environment.
Q: What is an ISO Class 6 cleanroom?
A: An ISO Class 6 cleanroom (equivalent to Class 1000) allows a maximum of 35,200 particles per cubic metre of air. It is commonly used in electronics manufacturing and pharmaceutical labs. Greenwipes® PRO Cleanroom Wipes are tested against international standards and safe for use in ISO Class 6 environments and higher.
Q: Are these wipes safe for electronics?
A: Yes. They are ESD-safe, preventing electrostatic discharge that can damage sensitive electronic components, making them ideal for semiconductor and tech industries.
Q: Do they contain chemical binders?
A: No. Greenwipes® PRO Cleanroom Wipes are manufactured without chemical binders, ensuring they are safe for delicate surfaces while remaining durable.
Q: What makes GW-1109 different from standard wipes?
A: GW-1109 is specifically engineered for semiconductor clean rooms and critical environments. They are lint free, free from microorganisms, and free of heavy metals, making them superior to ordinary wipes.
Q: Are GW-1109 wipes FDA approved?
A: Yes. GW-1109 wipes are FDA approved wipes, ensuring safety and compliance for use in medical, laboratory, and cleanroom environments.
Q: Can I use GW-1109 with cleaning chemicals?
A: Absolutely. GW-1109 wipes are compatible with most standard cleaning chemicals used in cleanroom environments. Since they are chemical free by default, you can pre-saturate them with approved solutions if required.
Q: What certifications or compliances do GW-1109 wipes meet?
A: GW-1109 is ROHS compliant, free of heavy metals, FDA approved and independently tested to ensure no particle contamination.
Q: What industries use GW-1109 Cleanroom Wipes?
A: These wipes are trusted in semiconductor clean rooms, pharmaceutical labs, aerospace facilities, electronics manufacturing, and biotechnology environments where contamination control is critical.
