Contamination control

Contamination control is essential to all high-tech industries and research facilities where ‘cleanliness’ is a precondition for the quality of the product and for the safety and health of the users or employees. Contamination control enables new technology. New research results and innovative technological applications make it possible to keep improving our control over air purity. Sharing this knowledge worldwide significantly accelerates the developments in this field. The ISCC plays a prominent role in doing so.
