CAS Cleanroom curtains are the preferred way to keep sensitive work areas free of contaminants. They are made up of a variety of different materials and attachment methods depending on your specific requirements. A primary concern for the Semiconductor or Microelectronics industries is damage due to static build-up in or around their critical processes.

Not all anti-static curtains are created equal. Any material that reduces electrostatic discharge can be referred to as anti-static, but the degree of performance of these so called anti-static curtains can vary greatly! We offer the best in anti-static curtains, using only materials that have been tested ESD Safe. CAS does not use topically treated anti-static materials that can wear away. In addition to ESD Safe materials, we also offer materials that meet or exceed the flame spread requirements of the UBC Class 1 and NFPA Class A.

To address the AMC (Airborne Molecular Contamination) concerns, Non-Outgassing materials are also available.

Hardware: The most exciting improvement to the cleanroom curtain industry is our new Seal Tech hardware system. It’s considered to be far and away the best attachment method available anywhere. This innovative new hardware makes installation and panel replacement simple. Once the mounting channel is anchored to either the ceiling or wall no further nuts and bolts are required! The extruded vinyl hook on top of each curtain is secured to the mounting channel by the matching fascia plate. The Seal Tech system works equally well for Softwall Panels or Strip Curtains up to an 80 mil thickness.

Curtain Styles

Strips: Strip curtains are made of heavy duty individual 8” wide, 80 mil strips available in a variety of colors and formats. They are used in applications where there is a great deal of personnel and/or light cart traffic in and out of a particular area. 80 mil strip curtains are extremely durable, resist tearing, and outlast strip curtains made of lighter material.

Softwall Panels: As the name implies, Softwall Panels are a solid yet flexible vinyl curtain that functions as a wall or room divider inside a cleanroom environment. Sometimes known as Laminar Air Flow Shields, they are commonly used to insure laminar flow over sensitive work areas. Both Softwall Panels and Air Flow Shields are generally made of 20 mil vinyl with weighted bottom hems or 40 mil vinyl with non-weighted bottom hems.

Sliding Track Curtain: Sliding Track Curtains are made for applications which require movable curtains. The curtain assembly consists of hangers suspended from trolleys which roll inside a special anodized aluminum c-channel. Hangers then hook through grommets located at the top of the curtain.

Accordion Style Curtain: The accordion style curtains are the newest way to effectively partition or enclose any area within your work environment. The sliding track hardware assembly allows the curtain to move easily into place when needed. When not in use, the curtain requires very minimal storage space due to its unique folding panels. Valance curtains are available for both the accordion and sliding track curtains to help provide a light safe environment when necessary.

Flexible films have a several beneficial uses inside the cleanroom. Many items in the cleanroom are used to store product or transfer product via mobile carts. If you require carts or other storage racks to be free of contaminants, TRAX also manufactures custom Cart and Rack Covers. They can be fabricated from a wide variety of flexible vinyl materials and attachment methods. UV and colored materials are available as well as Anti-Static materials for ESD control.
