Preparing plastic for painting or bonding – what is flame and plasma treatment?
Preparing plastic for painting or bonding – what is flame and plasma treatment?
Our products are perfect for identifying contamination, degreasing surfaces and removing particles ahead of treatment.
Why internationally recognised cleanroom standards matter
The cleanroom industry is controlled by international standards and certifications that govern environmental cleanliness – to operate successfully in the sector, understanding and conforming to these regulations is critical. Our Q+ cleanroom wipes, robot covers, face masks, and protection products help to secure clean environments to the relevant standards.
Ethanol vs isopropyl alcohol (IPA) – which is the best wipe for your application?
Switching to ethanol could save you 1.5 tons CO2 emissions annually.
This is just one of the reasons why you should consider switching from IPA to ethanol presaturated wipes.
Our wipes are PRI QPL certified for use in critical aerospace applications
In a highly regulated industry, there is a clear difference between a certified wipe and one that meets the minimum requirements for the application. Our CNM3A and CNM3KA wipes are qualified to the highly regarded AMS 3819D aerospace standard.
Is your cleaning routine endangering the integrity of your cleanroom?
Q+ cleanroom wipes and consumables are precisely measured and engineered to minimise particle release and reduce the contamination risk for critical clean spaces.
