Price per square meter of clean room

The 12-year experience of the Comprehensive Iranian Industrial Thinkers Company has shown that usually factories and companies that are looking to build a clean room for their product for the first time or that need a clean room to produce a new product are often clean room manufacturers. They want the cost of a clean room per square meter as the first question on their mind. Of course, it should be noted that the cost of a clean room depends on various parameters and costs may vary from less than 50 million Rials to more than 200 million Rials per square meter. Therefore, we decided to provide the following explanations about the price difference for factories or companies that are looking at their first clean room construction project.

Due to various parameters that companies usually do not pay attention to, there are many reasons why it is not possible to directly calculate the cost of a clean room per square meter and announce the price to the employer by phone. The main point that should be noted is that many variables are effective in determining the price of a clean room that should be considered. Therefore, offering a general price without paying attention to details for a work project is unscientific and is not in the employer s interest and confuses the employer. To determine the price of a clean room, basic information is required, which must be provided by the employer to the manufacturers of the clean room. A clean room manufacturer must evaluate the initial design and perform the initial calculations (mechanical and electrical). Engineers may also need to challenge the initial design, identify any defects, or take action to reduce unnecessary costs. In other words, the company of comprehensive thinkers of Iranian industry does not have any catalog with the price of different types of clean rooms. Before offering a price, costing requires some engineering and basic calculations to be done by the clean room design engineers.If a supplier gives you a quick price per square meter, you are advised to consider! The costs associated with that clean room may not be standard. The price mentioned is like a car with no possibility of moving down the windows, no possibility of air conditioning or no sound system. You do not want such a thing in a clean room, so be careful!

In this article, we have tried to present some aspects affecting the price per square meter of a clean room.

 

Classification of clean rooms

As you are familiar with the clean room classification, you are certainly aware that the price of one square meter of clean room is not the same as the ISO 6 classification and the price of one square meter of clean room is not the same as the ISO 8 classification. Also, a clean room for non-hazardous sterile blending medium or a clean room for hazardous sterile blending medium at negative pressure are not the same price for different reasons.

First, the amount of air in ISO 6 is different from ISO 8. Keep in mind that the air in ISO 6 is about 100 times cleaner than in a clean ISO8 room. Therefore, the clean room HVAC air conditioning system must be able to ventilate more than twice as much air. Of course, a clean room is not just walls and ceilings. The heart of a clean room is the air purification system (HVAC), which can be between a quarter and a half the price of a clean room.

In addition to the clean room air conditioning system, the clean room classification also affects the amount of closed room requirements. For example, entering a clean ISO 8 room can be done directly from an uncontrolled environment. On the other hand, entering the ISO 6 environment requires at least one air lock (recommendation for two). This causes more wall partitions, doors, ceilings ... to be built, and as a result, the cost of building a clean room increases.

Dimensions of the clean room

The larger the clean room space, the lower the cost per square meter. It depends on the economics of scale. For a large clean room, each square meter costs less, but overall it costs more because more square meters are involved.

 

Use of steam hoods / biosafety cabinets

If the steam hood drains air to the outside of the building, you should replace the contaminated air with fresh air. This fresh air must be ventilated and its temperature and relative humidity must be provided. This requires a larger unit of air or air conditioner.

Monitoring system

To comply with most industry regulations and standards, there must be a history of clean room conditions. Is it a handwritten or automated system? The costs of the monitoring system can be from 120 million Rials to 500 million Rials.

 

Installation space and location

Undoubtedly, the distance from the place of production of the clean room to the site of the employer will affect the price. If the installation is included in the price per square meter, the clean room manufacturer must estimate the time and level of installation difficulty. To do this, they need to know everything about the place:

  • What is the atmosphere of the employer site like?
  • Are there any obstacles at the installation site?
  • What is the height of the customer site?
  • Is there a column in the hall to be installed?
  • What is the available floor, is it concrete?
  • Is the floor of the installation site level?
  • How accessible is the available space?

Of course, installing a clean room on the 16th floor in the city center requires closing the street, providing escorts and cranes to the installation site, and lifting the panels to the 16th floor by crane and then passing through the windows. This is an extreme situation, but clearly with this particular project there is a major difference in price compared to a simple installation in an empty warehouse.

 

Also, what is the temperature and humidity control in this building space - is it warm in winter and pleasant in summer? Otherwise, the air conditioning system will have to work harder to control the environment.

 

Installations and access panels on the walls

What services does the process need? Simple blank room panels are cheaper than ready-to-install panels. If you need three outlets for 40, we are not talking about the same price. Water and electricity include supply tanks (120 volts, 208 volts, 240 volts, 600 volts), plumbing (hot / cold water, deionized water), compressed air and ...

 

Excellent appearance

Air return exhausts, windows, doors, etc. have different models with different prices.

In the initial design, the number of doors and shutters can vary, and the size and type of windows affect the price of the clean room, as well as the type and number of doors and, of course, their quality. If you choose viewing windows with different thicknesses, the price will also be different. The same goes for air return networks.

Another parameter affecting the price of the clean room will be the lighting system of the complex. Depending on whether a clean room needs to achieve 300 to 1200 lux, the required light level also affects the final price per square meter. There are also several options for the quality of the lighting system, from standard lighting to full lighting through the ceiling can be selected and accessed at different costs, which causes the lights to be changed from outside the clean box to maintain and break the room. Makes cleaning easier but increases the cost.
