Overview

Cleanroom and contamination control standards have evolved to meet the demands of increasingly sophisticated industries. This chapter explores organizations focused specifically on standards for controlled environments, detailing their roles, collaborations, and impact on maintaining contamination control excellence.

By the end of Chapter 2, you will understand how:

  • The Institute of Environmental Sciences and Technology (IEST) advances cleanroom science and recommended practices.
  • The International Cleanroom and Contamination Control Society (ICCCS) promotes international cooperation.
  • The ISO Technical Committee 209 (ISO/TC 209) develops key cleanroom standards.
  • The American National Standards Institute (ANSI) supports U.S. representation in global standardization efforts.

“IEST and ICCCS collaboration under ISO/TC 209 exemplifies the power of international partnerships in advancing contamination control standards.”
