Modular Cleanroom Panel Systems — Rapid-Build Controlled Environments
Modular cleanroom panels are purpose-designed, prefabricated building elements that combine structural rigidity, thermal performance, hygienic surfaces, and airtight joints into a single off-the-shelf system. Metrolabs designs, supplies, and installs complete modular cleanroom enclosures for pharmaceutical, biotech, food, electronics, and hospital facilities across India — from a single ISO Class 8 room to a full multi-room GMP suite.
The Fastest Route to a GMP-Compliant Controlled Environment
A modular cleanroom is a pre-engineered controlled environment built from standardized, interchangeable panel, door, window, and ceiling modules — assembled on-site without wet trades, without plastering, and without the weeks of drying time required by conventional brick-and-mortar construction.
Fastest Time-to-Production
Conventional cleanroom construction takes 6–18 months. Modular panel cleanrooms are typically operational in 4–12 weeks — dramatically accelerating your facility’s path to production, regulatory submission, or accreditation.
Built to Exact Layout Design
Every panel is precision-fabricated to your approved 2D/3D layout plan — including all cutouts for doors, windows, pass-throughs, HVAC connections, and utility penetrations. No site-adapted workarounds. No dimensional surprises.
Permanently Relocatable
Unlike brick construction, a modular cleanroom can be fully dismantled, transported, and rebuilt in a new location — protecting your capital investment across facility moves, production line changes, and plant expansions.
Validation-Ready from Day One
Metrolabs delivers a complete Installation Qualification (IQ) documentation pack with every modular cleanroom — material certificates, joint sealant data, panel performance data, particle count records, and HVAC balancing reports.
Six Modular Cleanroom Panel Configurations
Metrolabs offers modular cleanroom panel systems in six core configurations — each optimized for a different ISO class range, industry, and performance requirement:
Standard PUF Modular System (ISO 6–8)
The most popular modular cleanroom configuration for ISO Class 6–8 pharmaceutical QC labs, food processing, and general industrial cleanrooms. 75–100mm PUF-core panels with PPGI or GI skins, cam-lock joints, H13/H14 HEPA FFU ceiling, and hermetic doors. Fastest build time and lowest cost per square metre for mid-range cleanliness classes.
SS 304 Hygienic Modular System (ISO 5–7)
Stainless Steel 304 faced modular cleanroom panels with PUF or Rock Wool core. Designed for pharmaceutical production, biotech fermentation, and food processing cleanrooms requiring a fully washable, corrosion-resistant interior — capable of withstanding daily chemical wash-down with disinfectants, caustics, and peracetic acid.
SS 316L Sterile Grade Modular Suite (ISO 3–5)
Grade 316L stainless steel faced panels electro-polished to Ra < 0.5 μm for aseptic manufacturing suites, injectable fill-finish areas, and Grade A/B critical zones. Every joint and penetration sealed with VHP-compatible sealant. Compatible with hydrogen peroxide vapour (VHP) and chlorine dioxide decontamination cycles.
Fire-Rated Rock Wool Modular System
Modular cleanroom panels with Rock Wool (mineral wool) core achieving Class A non-combustible fire rating to BS EN 13501-1. Required for multi-storey pharmaceutical facilities, hospital cleanrooms, and any facility where building regulations or insurance specifications mandate non-combustible wall and ceiling construction. Simultaneously provides acoustic isolation up to 52 dB Rw.
FSSAI / HACCP Food-Grade Modular Cleanroom
Food-grade modular cleanroom panels with antibacterial PPGI or SS 304 skin and PIR or Rock Wool core for food processing, FSSAI testing laboratories, and beverage production facilities. Non-toxic panel finish, thermal shock-resistant seals, and drainage-compatible coved skirting design. HACCP and FSSAI compliant from first day of operation.
Portable / Rapid-Deploy Modular Cleanroom
Lightweight aluminium honeycomb panel-based modular cleanroom system designed for rapid deployment, frequent relocation, and minimal floor loading. Specified for aerospace component assembly, defence facilities, mobile pharmaceutical compounding units, and temporary clinical environments. Complete modular unit can be assembled and operational within 1–2 weeks.
Every Modular Cleanroom Component — Engineered to Work Together
A complete modular cleanroom from Metrolabs is more than panels — it is a fully integrated system of engineered components, each specified for your ISO class and compliance requirement:
Wall & Ceiling Panels
PUF, Rock Wool, GRP, or Honeycomb core with GI, PPGI, SS 304, or SS 316L face skins. 50–150mm thickness. Cam-lock joints and pharmaceutical-grade silicone sealant throughout.
Hermetic Cleanroom Doors
Airtight steel or SS doors with brush seals, gaskets, and automatic closers. Single and double leaf options with vision panels and pass-through hatches. Coded access, interlock systems for airlocks.
Fan Filter Units (FFU) with H14 HEPA
Ceiling-integrated Fan Filter Units supplying HEPA H14 filtered (99.995% @ 0.3μm) laminar downflow air. Speed-controlled fans for clean zone air changes adjustment from 20 to 600+ ACH depending on ISO class.
Vision Panels & Pass-Throughs
Flush-mounted double-glazed vision panels for visual monitoring without zone entry. Static and dynamic pass-through boxes with UV decontamination for material transfer between cleanroom zones.
Integrated LED Lighting
GMP-compliant flush-mounted LED panels (IP65+) providing 500–1000 lux at work surface level. IEC 60598 rated, anti-static polycarbonate diffusers, zero particle-shedding design.
Utility Penetrations & Services
Pre-fabricated service penetration collars for electrical conduits, gas lines, compressed air, vacuum, and data cables — all sealed with cleanroom-grade foam-in-place seals to maintain panel integrity.
Matching the Modular Panel System to Your ISO Class
The ISO class you must achieve determines the panel core, skin material, HEPA filter grade, and air change rate. This quick-reference table maps ISO class to the correct Metrolabs modular panel specification:
| ISO Class | US Fed Equiv. | ACH Required | Recommended Panel |
|---|---|---|---|
| ISO 3–4 | Class 1–10 | 300–600+ | SS 316L Sterile System |
| ISO 5 | Class 100 | 240–360 | SS 304 / SS 316L System |
| ISO 6 | Class 1,000 | 150–240 | SS 304 Hygienic System |
| ISO 7 | Class 10,000 | 60–90 | SS 304 / PUF PPGI |
| ISO 8 | Class 100,000 | 20–60 | Standard PUF GI / PPGI |
Integrated HVAC & Air Management
Fan Filter Units (FFU) with H14 HEPA
Ceiling-integrated FFUs provide HEPA-filtered laminar downflow at the correct air velocity and change rate for your specified ISO class — individually speed-controlled for precise room pressure management.
Differential Pressure Control
Positive pressure cascade (from Grade A→B→C→D→corridor) prevents cross-contamination between cleanroom zones. Pressure differential monitoring with real-time display and alarm function.
Temperature & Humidity Control
Precision HVAC systems maintaining temperature ±0.5°C and relative humidity ±2% RH within the cleanroom enclosure — critical for pharmaceutical stability and electronic manufacturing.
Environmental Monitoring System
Continuous particle count monitors, temperature loggers, and differential pressure sensors integrated into a central building management system (BMS) for real-time environmental data logging and 21 CFR Part 11-compliant records.

Modular vs. Conventional Cleanroom Construction
For most laboratory and production cleanrooms, modular panel construction dramatically outperforms brick, drywall, or site-plastered construction across every metric that matters:
4–12 Weeks vs. 6–18 Months
Modular panel construction eliminates wet trades, curing time, and site-adapted workarounds — getting your facility from design approval to operational status in a fraction of conventional timelines.
Expand or Reconfigure Without Demolition
Add a room, move a wall, or reconfigure a zone layout without structural demolition — modular panels disassemble, new layouts assemble in days rather than months, with no production shutdown.
