[labnetwork] asking advice of gowning renting/cleanroom cleaning service

[Martin, Michael]

Hi Gohmyeong,
    At U. Of Louisville, we have a cleanroom washing machine in one of our chases.  We do our own laundry once or twice a week and hang it to dry in the same chase.  Very cost effective for smaller facilities.

Regards,
   Michael

Hi Gohmgeong,



When I was at U-O, I started with CINTAS and then the team switched to another vendor after I left. The issue will be size appropriately and make sure the count is efficient enough. I know they usually charge for damaged/severely stained gowns so that’s something you have to monitor.



Good luck!

Dear labnetwork,



We are seeking effective gowning renting/cleaning service for small scale cleanroom facilities.



Could your advice on services that other fabs use currently for small scale size below than 4,000 sf?



Our annual budget is very limited, and many of our internal user groups cannot fully cover the associated costs.



Thank you for your advice.



Best,

Gohmyeong Bae.
