Non-Linting Cleanroom Swabs for Controlled Environments

Swabs designed for cleanroom applications should be manufactured from non-linting/shedding materials. Choosing the proper swab is vital to ensure the environment is not comprised. Cleanroom swabs are used for a variety of important tasks including specimen collection, diagnostic testing, surface cleaning, and cleaning small parts or difficult to reach areas.

Key characteristics of a clean room swab:

• Non-abrasive head
• Cleanroom packaging (for higher level cleanrooms)
• Non shedding material
• Synthetic shaft
• Low NVR’s (Non-volatile residue)
