Clean room doors are not only entrances but also “shields” that protect the production environment in food factories from dust, microorganisms and insects. With the ability to maintain room pressure, prevent cross-contamination and integrate access control systems, clean room doors play an important role in meeting HACCP, GMP and ISO 22000 standard

1. Overview of Cleanroom Doors in the Food Industry
1.1 Function and Role in Contamination Control
Cleanroom doors in food factories are not merely entryways; they are an integral part of the contamination control system. Their main functions include:
- Preventing cross-contamination: Keeping clean areas separated from raw production zones or areas with a high risk of contamination.
- Maintaining room pressure: Working with HVAC systems and interlock mechanisms to ensure the required positive or negative pressure differential.
- Minimizing dust, microorganisms, and insect intrusion: Smooth surfaces with minimal gaps for easy cleaning and reduced particle buildup.
- Access control integration: Allowing installation of electronic locks, sensors, or interlock systems to regulate personnel movement.
Due to the specific demands of the food industry, cleanroom doors are typically made from 304 stainless steel, HPL panels, or powder-coated aluminum to resist corrosion, enable easy cleaning, and meet food safety standards.
1.2 Applicable Standards
To meet safety and product quality requirements, cleanroom doors in food factories must comply with international standards and industry regulations, including:
- GMP (Good Manufacturing Practice): Guidelines for designing and operating manufacturing facilities to ensure hygiene, safety, and food quality.
- HACCP (Hazard Analysis and Critical Control Points): A food safety management system based on hazard analysis and critical control point monitoring, requiring that equipment and doors do not pose contamination risks.
- ISO 14644: International standard for cleanroom classification based on particle size and allowable airborne particle concentrations.
2. Factors Affecting the Price of Cleanroom Doors in the Food Industry
The price of cleanroom doors is not fixed and depends on multiple technical and operational factors. Understanding these factors helps businesses choose products that fit the budget while meeting hygiene and food safety standards.
2.1 Material & Structure
- Powder-coated steel: Moderate cost, smooth surface, good scratch and corrosion resistance. Suitable for dry areas with low chemical exposure.
- 304 Stainless steel: High corrosion resistance, durable in humid environments, easy to clean. More expensive than powder-coated steel but longer lifespan.
- HPL panel: Lightweight, good insulation, available in various colors. Ideal for packaging and inspection areas.
Note: Multi-layer doors (honeycomb core, Rockwool core, etc.) are more expensive due to added soundproofing, insulation, or fire resistance.
2.2 Required Cleanroom Class
- ISO 8: Common in food processing areas; doors must ensure airtightness and easy-to-clean surfaces.
- ISO 7: Used in functional food manufacturing or inspection rooms requiring stricter particle control.
The higher the cleanroom class → the stricter the door specifications → the higher the cost.
2.3 Size and Design
- Single-leaf doors: Common for personal entry points; lower cost.
- Double-leaf doors: Used for transporting goods; require stronger hinges and frames.
- Doors with observation windows: Improve visibility but require tempered glass and anti-dust design.
2.4 Accessories & Additional Technology
- Interlock systems: Prevent two doors from being opened simultaneously, maintaining pressure and cleanliness.
- Dust-proof & magnetic gaskets: Ensure airtightness.
- Tempered glass: Increases safety and visibility.
- Sensors & automation: Improve convenience but add to cost.
2.5 Manufacturing & Transportation Factors
- Domestic production: Competitive pricing, fast delivery, easy maintenance.
- Imported: Greater variety in quality and design but higher price, longer lead times, and higher shipping costs.

4. Notes When Choosing Cleanroom Doors for Food Factories
4.1 Compliance with Hygiene and Food Safety Standards
- Must meet GMP, HACCP, and ISO 14644 to prevent cross-contamination.
- Surfaces should be smooth, waterproof, non-dust generating, and free from harmful substances.
4.2 Easy to Clean and Corrosion-Resistant
- Use 304 stainless steel, powder-coated aluminum, or HPL panels for rust resistance and easy cleaning.
- Minimize gaps to reduce dust and microbial buildup.
4.3 Airtightness and Area Isolation
- Install rubber or magnetic gaskets to ensure airtightness and maintain room pressure.
- Doors and hinges must be robust to prevent warping over time.
4.4 Integration with Interlock and Access Control Systems
- Should allow interlock installation to prevent simultaneous opening of multiple doors.
- Can integrate with card, fingerprint, or sensor access systems for restricted areas.
