Sustainability concept in cleanroom cleaning

Our service

As unique as our customers – we fulfill more than just wishes. Our thoughts and actions are shaped by the aspiration to meet – and at best even exceed – the requirements and wishes of our customers. From quotation to delivery, our service is therefore simple, fast and sometimes surprising, but always unmistakably partnership-based and solution-oriented.

Systematic cleaning equipment that conserves resources

When choosing the right equipment, three things are key for us: the material used, the CO2 footprint and the possibility of reducing the daily consumption of resources in the cleaning and reprocessing processes. At PFENNIG, we think systematically in the long term: the interaction of optimally coordinated components and the long service life of our cleaning systems result in valuable savings potential.

Our sustainability concept in cleanroom cleaning

With our EasyMop and MopScoop cleaning methods, we offer particularly resource-saving and maximally safe cleaning processes in the cleanroom – without excess disinfection liquors and contamination carryover. The uniform impregnation of the mop by means of both systems enables reproducible cleaning results to be achieved. And reproducible cleaning results are achieved by uniform impregnation of the mop covers.

Cleaning textiles in the cleanroom: disposable or reusable? On the one hand, thanks to the long service life of reusable textiles, they are preferable from a sustainability point of view. On the other hand, safety and economy should be considered depending on the object and the requirements. One thing is certain: With up to 100 non-sterile and 50 sterile reprocessing cycles, our high-quality reusable mops are made for long-term use in the cleanroom.

Resources
	Reusable concept (wipe cover can be used for 100 cleaning cycles)	Disposable concept (mop cover can be used for 1 cleaning cycle)
Weight per cover in g	110	50
Square meter performance of mop cover	20 – 25m²	ca. 10m²
Number of mops for 1 cleaning cycle at 100 cleaning cycles	5 pieces 5 pieces (afterwards exchange necessary)	10 pieces 1’000 pieces
In … g material at 1 cleaning cycle at 100 cleaning cycles	5.5 g 550 g	500 g 50’000 g
Ratio of the use of resources	1	91

Calculation of the resource input for a 100 m² cleanroom with cleanliness class ISO 7/8. If one considers the total throughput of disposable wiping covers and the amount of waste generated in the process, a disposable concept cannot be said to be environmentally friendly.
