Seven product families

Cleanroom equipmentmanufacturer in India

Fabtech makes the core cleanroom equipment in its own facility in India. The range covers laminar air flow units, pass boxes, air showers, biosafety cabinets, cleanroom doors and modular cleanroom panels. Take a single unit, or have a complete turnkey cleanroom built around them.

The same team sizes it to your room, installs it, and stands behind it afterwards.

  • ISO 14644
  • HEPA H13 and H14
  • EU-GMP Grade A to D
  • Standalone or turnkey

Also in the range: cleanroom doors and modular cleanroom panel systems, both made in-house, plus fume hoods, supplied and integrated.

The proposition

What we make

Most people who need cleanroom equipment do not want to chase five different suppliers. The air units come from one place. The transfer hatches, the doors and the gowning airlocks come from three more. Then everyone hopes the pieces work together on site. Fabtech makes the core cleanroom equipment itself. So the company that builds the unit is the same one that sizes it to your room, installs it, and answers the phone afterwards. Buyers arrive here in one of two situations. Either something in a working room has to be replaced or added, and it has to match what is already there. Or a whole facility is being planned, and the equipment list is still open. Both are welcome, and both are quoted by the same engineers.

Buyers comparing cleanroom equipment manufacturers in India usually end up at the same question: who actually builds the unit. Fabtech builds its core equipment in its own facility, engineered to the ISO 14644 class the room has to hold. Nothing here is a generic box off a shelf. The room's classification, its airflow and its pressure regime set the specification for the unit. Every product can be bought on its own or built into a turnkey cleanroom. Each one below links to a dedicated page with specifications, variants and selection guidance.

Supplied and integrated

Equipment we supply and integrate

A working laboratory needs more than the units we build. Rather than send you off to find the rest, Fabtech supplies and integrates it as well. Where a product is supplied and integrated, Fabtech specifies the unit, installs it alongside everything else and carries it in the same scope.

Which enclosure?

If the hazard is biological rather than chemical, the right enclosure is usually a biosafety cabinet, which Fabtech builds in-house.

Fume hoods Biosafety cabinets

Specified to the chemistry

Fume hoods

Chemical, ductless and laboratory fume hoods, specified to the chemistry being handled and installed as part of the fit-out.

Fume hoods

Filtered at the unit

Ductless fume hoods

Recirculating hoods that filter at the unit, for laboratories where a duct run to roof level is not practical.

Ductless fume hoods

Specified and installed

HEPA filtration and air handling

H13 and H14 terminal filters, their housings and the air handling that drives them, sized to the room's air change rate.

HEPA filtration

Installed with the envelope

Epoxy and seamless flooring

Seamless, coved floor finishes that close the envelope and remove the joints that trap particles.

Why buy cleanroom equipment from the manufacturer

When the equipment and the room come from the same company, the responsibility comes with them. The supplier who made the unit and the team that installed it are the same people, so nobody can point across the table. A trader can sell you a unit. What a trader cannot do is size it to the room it is going into, or answer for it once it is running. That difference shows up late, usually on the day the room has to prove itself.

Making the core equipment in-house changes six practical things. It is the difference between buying a box and buying equipment that is already engineered for the room it is going into.

What changes when cleanroom equipment comes from the manufacturer that also designs and validates the room.
What changesFrom the cleanroom manufacturerTHIS PAGEFrom a general supplier
SizingThe unit is engineered to the room's ISO 14644 class, airflow and pressure cascadeA standard product is fitted to the room after the fact
Quality controlQuality control sits with the company that built the unitQuality control sits one step away, with a third party
Lead timeProduction is scheduled in-house rather than in someone else's queueThe lead time sits in a third supplier's production queue
InstallationThe team that made the unit installs it and ties it into the roomSupply and installation run as two separate contracts
ValidationThe installed unit is validated with the facility through DQ, IQ, OQ and PQValidation is arranged separately, usually after handover
AccountabilityOne team answers for the equipment and for the environment around itResponsibility is split between the supplier and the contractor

FIG. 03Structural comparison of the two buying routes. Not specific to any one supplier.

One accountable team

No handoff gap between the company that made the equipment and the one that installs and proves it.

Design, manufacture, quality control, installation and validation. Five steps, one contract, and one team to call when something needs answering.

From design to a validated install

Equipment is not finished when it leaves the factory. It is finished when it works in the room and there is paper to prove it. Every unit takes the same five steps. Validation is the step most of that paper belongs to. It proves the installed unit does what the design said it would, once the unit is in the room and running. The design that was agreed is the one that gets built, and the unit checked on the factory floor is the one that arrives on site. Two years on, the company to call about that unit is the one whose name is on it.

  1. 01To ISO 14644

    Design

    Drawn to the room's classification, airflow and process, not adapted from a fixed size.

  2. 02In-house

    Manufacture

    Fabrication runs in-house, which keeps the schedule and the quality standard together.

  3. 03Pre-dispatch

    Quality control

    Checked against its specification before it leaves the works, so site is not where problems surface.

  4. 04On site

    Installation

    The same team ties the unit into the envelope, the air system and the pressure regime.

  5. 05DQ IQ OQ PQ

    Validation

    Proved with the facility, through HEPA integrity testing, airflow readings and particle counts on the installed unit.

Standalone or turnkey

How this equipment goes into a complete cleanroom

Every product on this page can be bought on its own. The same units are also what a complete Fabtech cleanroom is built from. The panels form the envelope. The air units and the doors hold the classification and the pressure cascade. A pressure cascade simply means each cleaner room sits at a higher pressure than the one next door, so air always leaks the right way. The pass boxes and air showers control what crosses the boundary.

Buying unit by unit makes sense when you know exactly what is missing. When the room itself is the question, the whole build is easier to hand to one team. The turnkey route covers the design, the manufacture, the installation and the proof under one contract.

Where it goes

Industries we equip

What changes between industries is rarely the equipment list. It is the grade the room has to hold and the process it has to serve. A tablet line and a semiconductor fab both need clean air. They do not need the same room. Fabtech has supplied cleanroom equipment and complete cleanrooms across pharmaceutical, biotech and biocontainment, semiconductor, electronics, solar, data-centre, and food and beverage facilities in India since 2004. That is why each unit is engineered to the room rather than sold from a fixed catalogue.
