Rockfon® CleanSpace™: Designed to Exceed Hygiene Standards

Hygienic Spaces Are a Must

A building’s materials play an important role in limiting the spread of bacteria and infection. And with a heightened awareness of hygiene and sanitation in recent years, people will feel more comfortable in interiors that are designed for user health and wellbeing. To accommodate these needs, it is more important than ever to carefully consider the materials used in the built environment.

The Importance of Acoustics

We’re constantly exposed to noise pollution in indoor environments. Everyday activities like conversations, overhead music, telephones and everyday buzz not only harms our health and wellbeing but make it difficult to concentrate. According to a growing body of evidence that reveals the damaging impacts of noise pollution [1], it’s important that we respond.

Materials are an important part of the solution, as surfaces allow sound waves to bounce off back into a space and can create a noisy interior environment. Sound-absorbent materials, on the other hand, can manage the ambient sound levels, while sound insulation can prevent noise travelling from one space to another. By incorporating acoustic products into an interior’s design, you can create comfortable and safe spaces that have the power to impact everything from performance in schools and offices to the way patients heal in healthcare facilities.

You Don’t Have to Choose Between Clean and Quiet

When you’re looking to design an indoor environment where cleaning and sanitation are necessary, our Rockfon CleanSpace sound absorbing tiles offer the ultimate solution that uphold the highest levels of cleanliness. All of the CleanSpace products are developed with an outstanding balance of acoustic comfort, cleanability and resistance to humidity and bacteria, helping to ensure that health and safety standards are met. The range includes four acoustic ceiling tile products that are suitable for environments with a variety of hygienic demands. That way, you can find the solution that fits the requirements of your space.

“With CleanSpace, we wanted to create a simple range of acoustic ceiling tiles that are designed for hygienic environments. And by simple, we don’t mean less advanced, but simple to understand. There are so many cleanable tiles out there in the market, and it can be difficult to determine which products can accommodate varying cleanability requirements. Through the introduction of our CleanSpace range, we strive to make it easy for our customers to understand what tile they should choose based on the required cleaning method of their hygienic spaces. On top of that, we understand that the COVID-19 pandemic has created an enhanced need for sanitation in spaces, which is why we now have tiles tested for many types of disinfection methods– such as UVC and Ozone.” Megan Thorn, Product Manager

Proper cleaning and disinfection of building materials are proven methods to reduce and control the spread of infections. Designed to minimize maintenance time and costs, the ceiling tiles within the CleanSpace range can be easily cleaned with a vacuum cleaner fitted with a soft brush attachment. In cafeterias, locker rooms, clean rooms and other spaces where infection control is a priority, our solutions’ moisture repellent surfaces allow for cleaning with water, disinfectants, and even UV and ozone methods (for select tiles within the range).

Our CleanSpace range of products are not only humidity resistant, but also sag-resistant due to their stone wool properties. Even in consistently wet rooms like kitchens, restrooms, etc., there is no risk of sagging as they remain entirely stable even up to 100 percent relative humidity (RH) and in temperatures ranging from 0 to 40 degrees Celsius. In addition, our products don’t need fungicides or antimicrobials to prevent mould, mildew and bacteria growth as they have zero nutritional value. Therefore, harmful microorganisms that cause skin infections, pneumonia and other airborne illnesses won’t grow on the tiles.

With the Rockfon CleanSpace range of products, you can meet the demands for a sanitary and hygienic environment while still maintaining acoustic excellence with an aesthetic touch.
