What is a Pharmaceutical Cleanroom?

 A pharmaceutical cleanroom is a controlled environment designed for the production of pharmaceuticals, medical devices, and other healthcare products. These cleanrooms are highly specialized spaces that require stringent controls to ensure that the products being produced are of the highest quality and meet strict safety standards. Cleanrooms are classified based on the level of air cleanliness, which is measured by the number of particles present in a cubic meter of air.
