How To Package Cleanroom Equipment For Shipping
Cleanroom packaging requires the use of specific materials and specific procedures. At CDC Packaging, we first outline the basic process we need to follow to package your cleanroom product and then we customize it to your application.
- Clean all surfaces inside and out with cleanroom wipes and a mixture of de-ionized water and isopropyl alcohol.
- Wrap each part in 2-3 layers of approved material and either tape or heat seal the material.
- Carefully inventory everything and properly pack in cleanroom boxes, bins, totes or wood crates.
- Triple bag large items such as machine modules with 2 layers of cleanroom film and 1 layer of a vapor barrier material such as foil.
- Evacuate the excess air and seal the bags with desiccant inside.
- Properly secure product in place using custom made shipping brackets, steel strapping or blocking and bracing.
- Assemble crates around product and strap both vertically and horizontally or properly box and palletize depending on size, weight and shipping destination.
- Properly label completed package include standard international shipping labels, shock labels, tilt labels and shipping address.
