Cleanrooms are designed to keep out even the tiniest particles.
But one invisible pollutant often slips through: noise.
With the right acoustic solutions, you can take control of the sound environment
and create cleanrooms that sound as clean as they look – protecting
both hygiene and human wellbeing.
70% of employees report that noise is
the most significant source of annoyance at work.
In high-precision environments, from pharmaceutical production to microelectronics, every parameter must be perfectly balanced.
Hard, reflective materials are often prioritised to meet strict cleaning routines. But when hygiene standards are maintained without considering acoustics, every machine hum and spoken word will be an annoyance.
This makes noise more than just a nuisance – it becomes a significant risk for the people working there.
Did you know that noise in the workplace can raise stress hormones
and increase the risk of cardiovascular disease?
While neglecting acoustics presents a significant risk, installing well-designed acoustic solutions can completely transform the work environment.
Modern high-performance sound absorbers are engineered to meet strict hygiene standards in clean industries, combining hygiene, safety, and wellbeing. A well designed acoustic solution will reduce overall sound levels to make the space calmer, improve communication clarity, and help staff stay more focused.
A good acoustic environment can improve task motivation by 66%.
Cleanroom materials must withstand frequent cleaning, high humidity, exposure to various substances, and strict hygiene routines.
Ecophon Hygiene™ is engineered to fulfil the toughest requirements, while maintaining its acoustic performance. It covers a comprehensive range of products, suitable for environments with different needs.
This video gives you a clear overview of the Hygiene ceiling system, demonstrating how panels, grids, clips, and the inspection hatch come together in one seamless, fully integrated solution.
Discover how each component is designed to ensure a clean, compliant, and hygienic ceiling – built for spaces where hygiene truly matters.
Our sound-absorbing systems are tested and certified
to verify that they perform as intended.
Every cleanroom operates under strict regulations.
To meet hygiene and safety standards, all Ecophon Hygiene™ solutions comply with ISO 14644-1:2015 classified environments.
ISO 14644-1 is the global standard for cleanroom classification, defining air cleanliness by particle concentration. It’s widely used across industries such as pharmaceuticals, microelectronics, food production, and medical device.
Ecophon Hygiene™ offers acoustic systems compliant with ISO Class 3 – among the highest in cleanroom environments. With decades of development, they combine exceptional sound absorption with superior cleanability.
GMP (Good Manufacturing Practice) sets strict guidelines for hygiene, equipment, and quality control in sectors like pharmaceuticals, biotechnology, and medical devices. GMP cleanrooms are graded A–D based on contamination risk and product sensitivity.
Together, these standards establish a framework for ensuring safety, cleanliness, and optimal performance.
With a full acoustic ceiling and well-placed wall absorbers, perceived noise can be reduced by up to 10 dB – the equivalent of cutting noise in half.
Every clean environment – from pharmaceutical production to food and beverage processing – has its own set of demands. Appropriate solutions to the noise can vary, but they all share a common goal: to protect product and process quality, safeguard people, and stay compliant with regulations.
Create cleaner, quieter environments for pharmaceutical manufacturing.
Enhance focus and communication in medical device production with hygienic acoustic solutions.
Improve acoustics in healthcare and laboratory spaces without compromising strict hygiene standards.
Reduce noise in food and beverage facilities without compromising strict hygiene standards.
Poor acoustic conditions are associated with more workplace accidents.
See how our acoustic solutions have been implemented in various clean and controlled environments.
Since 1991, the Silesian Analytical Laboratories has been assisting in Poland by providing accurate diagnoses to patients through blood tests. The facilities are distinguished by their high quality, and this is no different for the new main headquarters that opened in Świętochłowice in 2022.
Large industrial spaces with hard surfaces often lead to significant noise issues – but problems are meant to be solved. Asia Pacific Breweries (APB), a major player in the brewing industry, took action to reduce noise levels at its production facilities in Vietnam.
Designing acoustics for high-containment labs is complex. Sealed spaces, hard surfaces, and strict safety standards make comfort a challenge – but with the right solutions, even these environments can support clear communication and safe, efficient work.
Noise in the sterile unit at Akershus University Hospital was a daily strain. With Ecophon Hygiene Performance™ B panels, the environment was transformed – creating better acoustics, greater efficiency and healthier staff.
Whether you're designing a new facility or refining what already exists, we’re here to help you find the best acoustic solution. With decades of experience in creating systems for spaces with high hygiene and cleanability demands, we bring acoustic expertise and reliability to every stage of the process.
