<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:11.0pt;color:#1F497D">Hi Aju,<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:11.0pt;color:#1F497D">The small company that used to clean wash our gowns closed its doors some good years ago. The other company dealing with this here had very expensive rates and not comfortable conditions (minimum
quantity and frequency). We purchased a simple washing machine, placed it in one of our chases and connected it to our RO water supply. We have three sets of 25 gowns and once a week we exchange and wash them. After washing they are left in that chase to dry.
It is a simple task done by the responsible for the clean room cleaning. Before that company closed they learned us what detergent to use and so on. This arrangement works just fine. We save a lot of money and have maximum flexibility.<o:p></o:p></span></p>

<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:11.0pt">I am reaching out to the ISO 5 and 6 cleanroom users regarding cleanroom gowns.<o:p></o:p></span></p>

<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:11.0pt">Does anyone opted to laundered their own cleanroom gowns in house? If yes, what type of washers/dryers you use? I am aware that washers specific for cleanroom can be very expensive and outsourcing the task
is also expensive. I am also aware that some labs are using dedicated regular washers.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
