Bio-Decontamination

Bio-decontamination is required to make units SAFE prior to maintenance, and to drastically reduce your environmental loading in processing and clean rooms. Bio-decontamination is often used when a suite of rooms has been unused for a period of time, or when Environmental Monitoring shows high counts of moulds or other microorganisms.  

Vapourised Hydrogen Peroxide (VHP) is an highly effective bio-decontaminant and has been used to sterilise laboratories for over 20 years. The technology was famously used following the 2001 Anthrax attacks in the US. As technological advances offer us new solutions to decontamination, it becomes clear that previous methods, typically using formaldehyde, chlorine dioxide and other steriliants are not only outdated, but also have unacceptably high levels of exposure to carcinogens. 

Advantages of Bio-Decontamination:
• Accelerate your Environmental Monitoring programme
• Extremely high kill rates
• Every decontamination is verified through the use of Bacterial and Chemical Indicators
• Safe to use and does not persist in the environment.
• Highly inert, will not react with most sensitive electrical and other forms of equipment. 
• The sterilant decomposes to environmentally-friendly water and oxygen. 

SF6 Tracer Gas Testing

SF6 Tracer Gas Testing is a method used to determine the containment factor of a Fume Cabinet following its installation.  It is a requirement on EN14175-3:2003 and is an important test as it provides the system owner with an indication of the effectiveness of the fumehood extraction and operator protection.

Icon Engineering have extensive experience in SF6 Tracer Gas Testing - please get in touch below to discuss how we can help you.

Air Barrier / Air Curtain Supply and Installation

ICON Engineering have many years of experience in the installation of Air Barriers. Air Barriers have many benefits including the following:  

• Saves energy by keeping the heating or cooling inside the building and the outside temperatures out.
• Improves indoor air quality by keeping dust, fumes and insects out. 
• Creates a more productive and comfortable environment for employees and customers.
• Assists in creating safer environments by increasing air circulation and making openings safer for employees and forklifts to pass through unencumbered.
• Allows visibility across thresholds and easy access and egress through openings, thus increasing safety.
