As the demand for cleanrooms and environmental enclosures continues to expand, the need for cleanroom building components like window systems has increased as well.
To meet the need for a cost-effective, two-sided window, PortaFab has recently introduced a new Beveled Window option to integrate with its line of modular cleanroom and office systems.
Designed specifically for cleanroom applications, the tapered metal extrusion reduces the presence of a window ledge making it easier to clean while the eliminating corners that often collect dust particles and other micro organisms.
“Our cleanroom window product line already included a Flush Window system and Double Flush Window system that were ideal solutions for many cleanroom applications. The new Beveled Window system, however, is a cost effective alternative to the Double Flush Window system that requires two separate pieces of glass and provides the dual room functionality not inherent in the Flush Window design,” says Wayne McGee, President of PortaFab.
The new Beveled Window is ideal for interior wall applications where controlled environments exist on both sides of the wall. The system features only one piece of glass with a beveled bottom extrusion that minimizes dust and organism collection and is easy to wipe down, further helping cleanroom owners achieve FDA compliance.
The new cleanroom windows can accommodate numerous sizes and materials to meet the specific needs of one’s application and integrates seamlessly with all of its modular wall and ceiling systems. Windows can be hermetically sealed and coated with a desiccant finish while insulated glass units or double flush glazing can be easily incorporated into most designs.
