Even a small amount of environmental contaminants such as dust particles, airborne bacteria and microbes, other microscopic aerosol particles, and chemical vapours pose a threat to certain manufacturing units and scientific research. So to overcome this difficulty, a fully air-locked and concealed area, termed a cleanroom in technical terms, with a controlled level of contamination must be created. The size of cleanrooms is usually large so as to accommodate all equipment, a work area, safe zones, etc.

In general, clean rooms do have some mandatory regulations that have to be followed, and likewise, having a set of equipment is a must for a cleanroom to be called complete. This equipment includes high-efficiency and ultra-low penetration air filters, air showers, and airlocks, through which air entering the room is filtered, wherein the airborne particle and air quality levels are tested by a particle counter to ascertain that they are well within the permissible number. A cleanroom is also facilitated with HVAC systems to efficiently control humidity levels. Electrostatic discharges are also kept in mind and are kept ...

Apart from this, equipment and furniture for hospitals also play an important role, without which a proper critical care facility becomes incomplete. This equipment includes beds, stretchers, proper seating, a doctors examination table, thermometers, a blood pressure apparatus, an electrocardiograph, and so on. Likewise, if the hospital is a fairly large one with a diagnostic lab, then the equipment also must be inclusive of microscopes, analyzers, centrifuges, cold storage, X-ray machinery, and so on. The hospital equipment is also dependent on the specialties that are diagnosed and treated; for example, if the hospital takes care of infectious diseases, then infection control isolation rooms must be provided. Then comes the illumination, where the cleanrooms must usually be equipped with cleanroom teardrop lighting.
