Wipers

Wipers are amongst the most important consumables in the cleanroom. They are integral to a complex cleaning process which removes contaminants generally invisible to the naked eye and support the maintenance of good basic hygiene together with a clean visual impression.

To ensure efficient cleaning, the wipers must be able to absorb a wide range of surface contaminants in the shortest possible time and without themselves distributing further pollution in the form of particles, fibres, ions or microbiological contaminants.

Because cleanroom requirements vary widely, the selected wipers must be appropriate to the application. The various materials and structures of the wipers have a major effect on their technical and functional performance.

The first level of selection is:

• Dry Wipers
• Pre-wetted Wipers
• Sterile Wipers
