Automotive

Painting automobiles is usually performed in a dust free cleanzone to limit any paint buggers. ISO 14644 Standards provide guidance for the level of the cleanroom and cleanzones. ICCAT certifies that these standards are in compliance. ISO was formed from the US Federal Standard 209E Airborne Particulate Cleanliness Classes in Cleanrooms and Clean Zones. The need for a single standard, used world-wide, for cleanroom classification and testing was long felt. After ANSI and IEST petitioned to ISO for new standards, the first document of ISO 14644 was published in 1999, ISO 14644-1.
