Specifically, VÊPRES was responsible for:
- Removal of existing airlock equipment
- the expansion and redesign of the personnel airlock
- the expansion of the central corridor: 26.3 m² / ISO 6
- the establishment of a new equipment airlock: 17 m² / ISO 6
- ISO 5 cleanroom & associated grey finger: 17 m²
- ISO 5 cleanroom & associated grey finger: 31 m²
- A new peripheral airlock: 7.3 m² / ISO 8
- the preparation and commissioning of two rooms: 70 m²
VÊPRES thanks SOFRADIR and the FAURE QEI design office for their trust in this ISO 5 cleanroom extension project.
