What is a softwall cleanroom?
The softwall cleanroom is a modular clean environment constructed using soft enclosures (such as PVC soft curtains and tempered glass partitions). It features characteristics such as rapid installation, low cost, and flexible adjustment, and is suitable for small areas with moderate cleanliness requirements (ISO class 5-8).
What are the advantages of softwall cleanrooms?
Fast and efficient: Modular assembly, with a construction period of only a few hours to a few days (1/10 of the time required for traditional cleanrooms).
Low cost: No pre-construction preparation is required, and the cost is only 30%-50% of that of a hardwall cleanroom.
Flexible adjustment: The product can be easily expanded, dismantled, or relocated to accommodate changes in production lines or short-term projects.
Transparent and visible: PVC soft curtain or glass panel facilitates observation of internal operations.
Compliance: The product complies with cleanliness standards such as ISO14644 and GMP.

Core components of softwall cleanroom
Framework
Softwall cleanrooms typically adopt aluminum alloy or stainless steel aluminum profiles, which are assembled modularly to form a small clean space. FFUs (fan filter units) are suspended to the ceiling.
Enclosure
The enclosure structure typically adopts a 1.5-2mm anti-static soft curtain; or adopts 5mm acrylic tempered glass to enhance airtightness and observation convenience.
Airflow organization:
Air cleanliness is controlled by air supply from FFUs installed on the ceiling, with bottom grille air return or side air return.
Auxiliary facilities
- LED cleanroom lights are used;
- Optional temperature and humidity sensors and pressure difference sensors can be used to control the start-stop and power of the FFU.
What aspects should be considered in the construction of softwall cleanrooms?
- Provide electronic drawings of the existing site
- Understand the dimensions and cleanliness class of the softwall cleanroom required in the project
- Provide on-site photos for design reference.
