THE VISIBLE AND
INVISIBLE RISK

Contamination control is a major and growing concern in                Whether the environment you operate in is industrial, controlled,
cleanrooms, critical areas and controlled environments.                critical or sterile, Dycem enables all organisations to reduce
                                                                       particle counts by up to 99.9%.
Cleanrooms are markedly cleaner than a hospital operating
room and require an extremely stringent approach to controlling        The illustration below identifies the types of particulates present
possible contamination and ensuring an environment is free of          in these environments and how Dycem uses these groups to
bacteria, viruses or other pathogens.                                  assess and address your facility’s decontamination needs.

Particulate contaminants are known to adversely affect quality,
product yield, operational effectiveness and profitability, therefore
protecting these areas is vital.
