In the field of animal experiments, a compliant experimental environment is crucial for the accuracy and reliability of experimental results. As a company deeply rooted in the purification equipment sector, Guangzhou Cleanroom Construction Co., Ltd., leveraging years of industry experience, will provide you with a detailed overview of the standard requirements for walls, floors, ceilings, doors and windows in animal laboratories. Our aim is to assist in creating professional and compliant experimental spaces.

Walls in animal laboratories should be made of non-toxic, odorless, corrosion-resistant, and easy-to-clean materials. Color-coated steel panels are commonly used. They feature a smooth surface that resists dust and microbial adhesion. Additionally, they possess excellent moisture-proof and fireproof properties, effectively withstanding the corrosion of various chemical reagents during animal experiments. Moreover, in some high - end laboratories, stainless - steel panels are employed. Their superior corrosion resistance and antibacterial properties make them better suited to complex and demanding experimental environments.

The corners of the walls should be designed with rounded edges, typically with a radius of not less than 50mm. This design eliminates sanitation blind spots, preventing dirt accumulation and facilitating daily cleaning and disinfection. Meanwhile, the joints between the walls, floors, and ceilings should be sealed to prevent water vapor, dust, and microorganisms from entering the gaps, thus avoiding cross - contamination.

Floor materials must have the properties of being slip-resistant, wear-resistant, corrosion-resistant, and easy to clean. Epoxy self - leveling floors are an ideal choice for animal laboratories. Their seamless connection eliminates hiding places for dust and bacteria. Moreover, they have a high surface hardness, capable of withstanding the wear and tear caused by experimental equipment and animal activities. In addition, PVC roll floors, with their good elasticity and slip - resistance, can effectively reduce the risk of animals slipping and getting injured. They are also convenient for cleaning and maintenance.

A rational drainage system is key to floor design. The floor should have a certain slope, usually between 0.5% and 2%, ensuring that accumulated water can quickly drain towards the floor drain. The floor drain should be made of stainless steel, which is odor-proof, overflow - proof, and easy to clean. It should also be equipped with a sealing cover to prevent the escape of odors and microorganisms.

Ceiling materials should be lightweight, fireproof, moisture-proof, and easy to clean. Color-coated steel panels or aluminum alloy gusset plates are often used. Color-coated steel panel ceilings not only have good fireproof properties but also effectively prevent the growth of dust and microorganisms, maintaining the cleanliness of the laboratory. Aluminum alloy gusset plates, with their excellent moisture - proof properties and aesthetic appeal, are widely used in some animal laboratories with high environmental requirements.

The installation of the ceiling should ensure flatness and airtightness, avoiding gaps and holes. The installation of lamps, air vents, and other equipment should be closely integrated with the ceiling to prevent dust and microorganisms from entering the interior of the ceiling and contaminating the experimental environment.

Doors should be made of materials with good sealing performance and easy operation, such as stainless - steel doors or broken - bridge aluminum doors. The width of the door should meet the requirements of transporting experimental equipment and animals, generally not less than 1.2 meters. At the same time, doors should be equipped with automatic closing devices to prevent experimental animals from escaping and reduce the interference of outside air on the internal environment of the laboratory.

Windows should be made of double - glazed insulating glass, which can effectively soundproof and prevent heat transfer, maintaining a stable internal temperature in the laboratory. The windows should have good sealing performance, and rubber sealing strips can be used for sealing to prevent dust and microorganisms from entering the laboratory. In addition, the opening method of the windows should facilitate cleaning and maintenance.
