turnkey CLEANROOM Design & Build Turnkey Cleanroom in an Existing Facility
Ardmac were contracted to provide a Design & Build Turnkey Cleanroom in an existing facility, consisting of approximately 3500 square meters of ISO 8 Cleanroom, non-classified White Room, fit out of offices, meeting rooms and staff facilities for one of our global Medical Device clients in Waterford. Our architectural and structural scope involved the design and construction of a new mezzanine floor for the offices and new gantry cranes to service the cleanroom areas. Our design prioritised safety by implementing robust fire safety measures throughout the facility. The dividing firewalls, including all fire rated windows and doors along the firewall, compartmentalised the two cleanrooms and office areas, allowing suppression systems to protect neighbouring rooms, effectively enhancing overall safety. Our mechanical scope involved the design, supply, and installation of all mechanical services within the Cleanroom and offices areas, including HVAC systems, a compressed air system with strategically located live tap-ins throughout the Cleanroom facility, a central vacuum system with conveniently located inlets, cold and potable water supplies, drainage and sprinkler. Our electrical scope of work encompassed the design, supply, and installation of all electrical services within the Cleanroom and offices areas, including distribution boards, distribution systems, HVAC control cabling, general services, specialist cleanroom light fittings controlled through ceiling-mounted Passive Infrared Sensors (PIRs),
and equipped with a Central Battery-backed Emergency Lighting System. Ardmac demonstrated ingenuity on the project by incorporating specifically designed service plates. These plates provide the critical services needed for the client’s equipment, in a flexible solution allowing for the seamless movement of equipment in and out of the facility. This flexibility is crucial for the client, allowing them to adapt to changing technological needs, providing the ability to replace outdated machinery with new equipment without disruption. For this project, Ardmac used the latest technologies such as BIM to generate a clash free model, LEAN processes to bring value to the client and the use of integrated scheduling coupled with strong Project Management. The Ardmac PM on this site tells us ‘It is as important as anything else in the project to ensure that the client has trust in what we are doing’. Ardmac earns that trust by consistently delivering high-quality results that meet and exceed expectations. Our approach adds value to any cleanroom construction project and that is why Ardmac has become a trusted partner in the industry.
