GMP Cleanroom Doors: Technical Specifications and Application Overview

Created on 02.09
In pharmaceutical manufacturing, biotechnology, electronics, and food processing industries, cleanroom doors are not merely access points, but critical components of the overall contamination control system. A GMP-compliant cleanroom door must meet strict requirements for structural strength, sealing performance, cleanability, and long-term durability.
Based on the following technical specifications, this article provides a comprehensive overview of the design features, material configuration, and application value of GMP cleanroom doors.

I. Basic Specifications

1. Door Dimensions

Single-leaf doors
900 × 2100 mm
1000 × 2100 mm
Double-leaf doors
1200 × 2100 mm
1500 × 2100 mm
These standard sizes meet common requirements for personnel access, equipment transfer, and material logistics in cleanroom environments. Custom sizes are available upon request.

2. Door Thickness

Standard thickness: 50 mm
A 50 mm thick door leaf provides enhanced rigidity and improved isolation performance while maintaining a compact structure suitable for GMP cleanroom applications.

II. Door Structure and Material Configuration

1. Panel Material

High-quality galvanized steel sheet
Optional: 304 stainless steel sheet
The door leaf is manufactured using integral bending and continuous welding, forming a robust, seamless structure with excellent mechanical strength and dimensional stability.
Galvanized steel surface:Electrostatic polyester powder coating for corrosion resistance, easy cleaning, and a smooth, dust-free finish
Stainless steel surface:Brushed or matte finish, suitable for high-humidity, corrosive, or higher-grade cleanroom environments

2. Core Material Options

Different core materials are available to meet varying cleanroom performance and fire safety requirements:
Flame-retardant paper honeycomb
Lightweight structure
Good fire-retardant performance
Suitable for standard GMP cleanrooms
Aluminum honeycomb
High strength and dimensional stability
Resistant to deformation
Ideal for large door leaves and high-frequency use
Rock wool core
Excellent fire resistance
Suitable for areas with specific fire-rating requirements
The composite core structure ensures a lightweight door leaf with high structural strength and long service life.

III. Hardware and Functional Configuration

1. Standard Hardware

Cleanroom-grade locks
Heavy-duty hinges
All hardware components are selected for corrosion resistance, ease of cleaning, and reliable long-term operation in controlled environments.

2. Optional Configurations

Vision panels with double-glazed tempered glass
Access control systems and electric interlocking
Door closers
Enhanced sealing systems

IV. Cleanroom Performance and Manufacturing Advantages

The door design and manufacturing process focus on critical cleanroom requirements:
Seamless constructionIntegral bending and welding minimize joints and gaps, reducing dust accumulation and microbial growth
Smooth, flat surfacesEasy to clean and resistant to disinfectants, fully compliant with GMP hygiene standards
Excellent sealing performanceHigh-quality cleanroom gaskets help maintain room pressure differentials and airflow control
High structural stabilityResistant to warping and sagging, suitable for high-traffic cleanroom areas

V. Applications

GMP cleanroom doors are widely used in:
Pharmaceutical cleanrooms (GMP production areas, clean corridors, airlocks)
Electronics cleanrooms (semiconductor and precision electronics manufacturing)
Food processing cleanrooms (processing and packaging areas)
Biotechnology laboratories, medical device clean areas, and other controlled environments

Conclusion

GMP cleanroom doors are a critical element of the cleanroom enclosure system rather than a simple architectural component. With optimized dimensions, robust door construction, high-quality metal panels, and advanced core materials, these doors deliver reliable performance in terms of contamination control, structural integrity, durability, and regulatory compliance.
Whether for new cleanroom construction or facility upgrades, selecting a professional GMP-compliant cleanroom door is essential for maintaining stable operating conditions and ensuring long-term compliance.
