Cleanrooms & Nanotechnology
Experts in Cleanroom and Nanotech Facility Design
Cleanrooms are essential to the groundbreaking research that propels our society forward. They support everything from cell and gene therapy research and drug development to nanotechnology and quantum research, which deepens our understanding of the world and drives technological advancements. The design, planning, and development of cleanrooms are critical to achieving our clients’ ambitious goals. Cleanrooms and nanotechnology labs must be both safe to operate and flexible enough to keep pace with the ever-evolving landscape of research and technology. By integrating advanced cleanroom standards with cutting-edge nanotechnology requirements, we create design environments that foster innovation and excellence.
Innovative Cleanroom Solutions for Physical and Life Sciences
As a recognized leader in cleanroom design, we have created over 2 million square feet of cleanroom space for corporate, academic, institutional and federal clients. Our expertise spans Class 1 to 100,000 facilities (ISO Class 3 to 8). We excel in meeting stringent environmental control requirements — cleanliness, vibration, temperature, humidity, electromagnetic interference, and airborne molecular contamination — while maintaining flexibility for expansion, equipment swaps, and infrastructure additions. Our proprietary data-driven design tools optimize land use and logistics in site master planning projects, enhancing the relative locations of various functional areas within the facility. This approach yields highly efficient facilities that enable our clients to achieve their vision by fostering dynamic research environments that embody their core values and attract top researchers.
Comprehensive Design and Planning Services
Our portfolio includes some of the industry's most technologically advanced facilities, such as 300-millimeter wafer fabrication plants, nanotechnology facilities with the world’s most stable laboratory environment, anechoic chambers, environmental test chambers, rapid prototype spaces, standards laboratories, and mission-critical facilities that operate 24/7. We have designed facilities for the top five semiconductor manufacturers and two of the five nanotechnology core infrastructure facilities for the Department of Energy. Our services encompass environmental permitting, utility infrastructure planning, traffic studies, sustainability, site master planning, facility design peer review, industrial engineering, cleanroom and controlled environment room design and facility plant design. Regardless of size or scale, our team brings a broad range of experience and expertise to every advanced tech project.
