Clean Room
Monmouth Scientific has delivered its largest modular cleanroom to date for ADDEV Materials, creating a 26m x 26m, facility-scale controlled environment designed to support complex, multi-zone production.
ADDEV Materials, operating as ADDEV Parafix in Lancing, UK, is the European centre for the Healthcare & Wellness division within the global ADDEV Materials Group. The ISO 13485:2016 certified company specialises in engineered adhesive solutions, converting high-performance materials such as medical-grade adhesives, films, foams, and membranes into finished components for regulated sectors.
Strong growth across pharmaceuticals, life sciences, and personal care increased demand for higher-capacity, contamination-controlled manufacturing. Following expansion and relocation, ADDEV Parafix required a new ISO-certified cleanroom to support higher production volumes and more complex converting operations.
The facility needed to combine precision manufacturing with strict environmental control, including multi-zone workflows, segregation of processes, efficient material and operator flow, and scope for future expansion.
Laura Darwin, Production Manager at ADDEV Parafix, said: “We needed more than space. We needed a controlled environment that supported how our teams work and could scale with customer demand.”
Monmouth Scientific designed a 500m² modular cleanroom structured around 15 operational zones, including airlocks, gowning areas, production cells, transfer points, and packing areas. The facility supports ISO 7 and ISO 8 classified environments with controlled transitions between zones.
Key features include CAMT2000 HEPA-filtered air modules, Visionaire environmental monitoring, integrated LED lighting, cleanroom flooring, and flexible segregation systems. The layout was engineered around converting machinery to optimise workflow and reduce handling risk, supporting processes such as die-cutting, laser cutting, lamination, and high-precision slitting.
The new facility enables streamlined material flow, improved segregation of sensitive processes, and increased production capacity. Its modular design allows future expansion with minimal disruption.
Lewis Irish, Sales Director at Monmouth Scientific, said: “This project demonstrates how modular systems can deliver large-scale, highly controlled environments tailored to complex manufacturing needs.”
Laura Darwin added: “The layout has transformed how we operate. It feels intuitive, improves consistency, and gives us confidence in future growth.”
