Humancare Lab

OWAcoustic premium Humancare Lab is a 20 mm thick, smooth, white fleece covered, hygienic ceiling tile. It has an ISO 3 cleanroom classification, offers 100% RH and is a class C sound absorber. We only offer this hygiene tile with a square edge.

Suspended ceilings in laboratory cleanrooms may only emit extremely low quantities of airborne particles in order to meet applicable air purity requirements. EN ISO 14644-1 defines the permissible thresholds.

The suitability of ceilings for cleanrooms is defined by more than just their emissions behaviour. Equally decisive is how they create distinctions between lower and higher cleanliness classes and how they react to the different air flows which occur in cleanrooms. Both OWAtecta metal ceilings and Humancare Lab mineral ceilings contribute to maintaining the required pressure level in a room, thus protecting personnel and test results.

Humancare Lab is dirt repellent, scratch resistant and wipeable with disinfect. The hygienic ceiling tile prevents the spread of bacteria, fungi and germs. Even MRSA pathogens don’t stand a chance. It’s ideal for laboratories or hospitals, in particular ICUs, positive/negative pressure rooms and cleanrooms. It helps to create a clean, quiet and calm environment, thus aiding recovery and work.

OWA manufactures our mineral wool tiles from natural and recycled materials using a wet-felt process. Our boards contain negligible VOCs and exclude formaldehyde resin in their formulation. Therefore, they contribute to excellent indoor air quality which is ideal for hospital ceilings.

Humancare Lab hygienic ceiling tiles form a complete suspended ceiling system when combined with our exposed ceiling grid and perimeter trim. They are easy to install and demount for service access. OWA mineral board is dense and firm, ensuring the tiles maintain integrity during frequent handling. The solid core ensures particle emissions are low and cut edges are clean, eliminating the need for resealing. Also, the tile density prevents dust settling and marking the surface via air filtration.
