WHAT WE SERVICE

Clean Room & Hood Capabilities

Get comprehensive certification, testing, monitoring, and service for controlled environments in your pharmacies, labs, and healthcare facilities.

Clean Room Certification

Comprehensive programs to certify controlled environments according to USP 797/800, NSF, ISO, and CGMP standards

Chemical Fume Testing

Performance verification involving face velocity measurements and smoke visualization to ensure hazardous vapors are properly contained

HEPA Filter Integrity Testing

A nondestructive leak test that uses aerosol challenges to verify that filters, frames, and gaskets are free of bypass leakage

Quantitative assessment to ensure that the volume of filtered air supplied is sufficient to dilute or remove environmental contaminants

Pressure Monitoring

Verification of room differential pressures to maintain the required protective airflow between clean zones and adjacent spaces

Viable Air Sampling

Active collection of airborne microorganisms onto growth media to detect and quantify living bacteria, fungi, or yeast

Nonviable Air Sampling

Using specialized counters to measure the concentration of airborne particles (e.g., dust, fibers) per ISO class limits

Hazardous Drug Sampling

Targeted surface and air monitoring to identify potential contamination from hazardous medicinal products, such as antineoplastics

Pressure Monitors & Alarms

Installation and testing of calibrated devices that provide real-time alerts if airflow or pressure gradients fall out of spec

Decontamination Services

Professional cleaning and sterilization of controlled environments and contamination control equipment

HEPA Filter Replacements

Full-service maintenance to correct deficiencies and replace exhausted or damaged filtration media

Repair Services

Expert technical support for a wide range of contamination control equipment, regardless of the original manufacturer

HOW WE WORK TOGETHER

Controlled Environment Services That Protect Sterility, Safety, and Compliance

Confidence in Your Sterile Compounding

Keeping your sterile compounding areas compliant shouldn't feel like a constant uphill battle. We’ve designed a complete USP 797/800 program that handles the technical details for you, from certifying IV hoods and safety cabinets to precise particle counting. Plus, our self-serve subscriptions make it easy to meet your monthly surface sampling requirements so you can focus on what matters most.

Protection for Your Laboratory Environment

Your lab safety is our priority, which is why we provide specialized testing and certification for biological safety cabinets and chemical fume hoods. We'll also help you monitor your air quality through chemical exposure testing for formaldehyde or xylenes, alongside comprehensive ventilation studies. If issues arise, you have access to professional decontamination services to keep your critical research environments operational.
