Cleanroom Workstations
Modular aluminum cleanroom workstations engineered for ISO 14644-1 Class 5 through Class 8 controlled environments — non-outgassing surface materials, sealed T-slot frame joints, perforated airflow panels for vertical laminar flow pass-through, ESD-safe options for sensitive device assembly, and stainless hardware throughout. Every cleanroom workstation is designed to not be a particle source. Manufactured in Auburn Hills, MI.
Why Choose Modular Solutions for Cleanroom Workstations?
Cleanroom workstations that do not generate particles, do not outgas, and do not accumulate contamination — designed to the classification, not just for the room.
Modular aluminum T-slot benches bolt together without welding and reconfigure without tools — giving you a purpose-built technical station today that adapts through every process change, instrument upgrade, and compliance revision without capital reinvestment in new furniture.
Non-Outgassing Materials
Anodized aluminum frame, stainless hardware, and non-outgassing surface materials (ESD-safe laminate, stainless steel, phenolic) selected to avoid molecular contamination in sensitive cleanroom environments.
Sealed T-Slot Joints
Silicone or EPDM-sealed T-slot frame joints eliminate particle traps at frame connections — all joint faces are sealed and cleanable for ISO Class 6 and cleaner environments.
Perforated Airflow Panels
Perforated lower frame panels and open-grid work surface options allow vertical laminar air flow pass-through, maintaining the unidirectional airflow pattern required for Class 5 and Class 6 cleanrooms.
ESD-Safe Configuration
Static-dissipative surface options (10&sup6;–10&sup9; Ω), common-point ground connections, and frame bonding for ESD-controlled cleanroom environments per ANSI/ESD S20.20.
Stainless Hardware Throughout
Stainless steel fasteners, stainless shelf standards, and stainless caster stems throughout — no zinc-plated or cadmium hardware that corrodes or generates metal particle contamination.
Easy-Disassemble Design
T-slot construction allows cleanroom workstations to be disassembled, cleaned, and reassembled for change control, decontamination procedures, or facility requalification events.

Frequently Asked Questions
Common questions about cleanroom workstations design, compliance, and configuration.
What ISO cleanroom classification can Modular Solutions workstations support?
Modular Solutions cleanroom workstations are specified for ISO 14644-1 Class 5 through Class 8. Class 5 and 6 workstations use sealed frame joints, perforated airflow panels, and non-outgassing materials. Class 7 and 8 workstations use the same sealed frame and stainless hardware with standard surface options. The appropriate specification is determined by the particle size and concentration limit for your classified environment.
How do perforated airflow panels help maintain cleanroom classification?
Unidirectional (laminar) airflow in ISO Class 5 and 6 cleanrooms requires that air flow vertically from ceiling to floor without obstruction. Solid benches and work surfaces interrupt this airflow, creating turbulent zones that accumulate particles. Perforated lower frame panels and open-grid work surfaces allow laminar air to pass through the workstation structure, maintaining the downward flow pattern and reducing particle accumulation on surfaces.
Are cleanroom workstations available with ESD control?
Yes. Cleanroom workstations combine ISO cleanroom material requirements with ANSI/ESD S20.20 ESD control. Static-dissipative ESD-safe laminate surfaces (10&sup6;–10&sup9; Ω) provide both cleanroom compatibility and ESD protection. Common-point ground wrist strap connections and frame bonding complete the ESD control system within the cleanroom environment.
How are cleanroom workstations delivered and installed without particle contamination?
Cleanroom workstations are packaged in poly-bagged assemblies inside sealed boxes at the factory. Installation in qualified cleanrooms is performed by gowned technicians following facility entry and garment protocols. Modular Solutions provides installation procedures compatible with your facility's cleanroom entry requirements. Workstation wipe-down and cleanroom entry particle protocols are coordinated with your facility team.
What surface finish is specified for cleanroom workstations?
Cleanroom workstation aluminum frames use Type II anodized finish (hard, particle-resistant, non-outgassing). ESD-safe laminate surfaces use phenol-free formulations verified for outgassing. Stainless steel surfaces use #4 brushed finish (Ra 32μin or better) for easy-clean without particle-trapping surface irregularities. Surface finishes are documented in the workstation drawing package for cleanroom qualification records.
