Clean room door (wrap-around frame) for pharmaceutical and food installations

The Clean Room Door (wrap-around frame) is a hygienically designed stainless steel or anodised aluminium door specifically designed for clean room installations in the pharmaceutical, high-end food and biotechnology industries. “Wrap-around frame” refers to the surround system that completely encloses the panel, with no gaps or dead corners where contaminants can build up, making full cleaning and disinfection of the assembly easy.

FAQs

What is the difference between a clean room door with a wrap-around frame and a standard door?

A standard door has its surround fitted into the wall, with a foam joint between the surround and the wall panel. With a wrap-around frame, the surround completely encloses the wall panel with no space between them, eliminating the foam joint and the gaps where dirt can build up. This difference is critical in installations where any build-up of contaminants is unacceptable.
