Ceiling Grid Conversion System

Convert a existing office or room into an ISO class 4-8 cleanroom using Cleanroom Conversions a in a fraction of the time, and at a fraction of the cost, compared to new construction.

  • Mounts to existing office walls
  • Built to accommodate weight and dimensions of standard fan/filter units, lights and panels (order separately)
  • Powder-coated or 304 stainless steel ceiling grid forms a strong, rigid structure—no ceiling suspension or internal support columns required for spans to 20 feet (6096 mm)
  • Customized to your specifications

Installing a modular cleanroom inside an existing room often creates unusable or inaccessible spaces. In many situations, converting the entire unclassified room into a cleanroom is a more economical, space-efficient approach.

CLIN's Cleanroom Ceiling Grid turns nearly any room into an ISO 5 – ISO 8 Cleanroom. The grid structure mounts directly to most gypsum or concrete walls below an existing ceiling (requires ≥ 2 feet (610mm) clearance between CleanSpace and existing ceiling.) It can also be mounted on top of walls that lack a ceiling. Versatile mounting ledgers accommodate a wide range of wall materials and stud or other anchoring structure locations.

The all-steel interlocking T-joists, fabricated of powder-coated hot-rolled or stainless flat-stock steel, create a strong, rigid structure that supports spans of up to 20 feet (6096 mm), even when loaded to capacity with fan/filter units (FFUs). Larger spans can be reinforced with a single internal column or external ceiling cable.

The openings in the grid are typically 24" x 48" (610 mm x 1219 mm), although some cleanroom designs require bays of 24" x 36" (610 mm x 914 mm) or 24" x 24" (610 mm x 610 mm). The grid is not designed to be walkable.

Call CLIN with your dimension and cleanliness requirements. We'll provide detailed drawings and pricing on a system tailor-made to your needs. For ISO 5 and ISO 6 cleanroom conversions, CLIN recommends application of Cleanroom Wall Panels, which attach to all wallboard types.
