Project Background

Healthcare facilities and laboratories demand building materials that meet stringent requirements for cleanliness, antimicrobial properties, durability, and construction efficiency. Color steel (pre-coated galvanized steel), with its superior dustproof, antibacterial, and corrosion-resistant properties, along with rapid installation capabilities, has become the ideal choice for high-standard environments such as hospital operating rooms, sterile wards, and laboratory partitions.

Key Applications of Color Steel

1. Cleanrooms and Operating Rooms

The smooth, seamless surface of color steel sandwich panels is easy to clean and disinfect, effectively preventing bacterial growth. Their superior sealing performance ensures cleanrooms meet the highest ISO 14644-1 standards (ISO Class 5), providing reliable protection for operating rooms and sterile wards.

2. Laboratory Partitions and Ventilation Systems

Color steel wall systems enable rapid construction of laboratory partitions, accommodating flexible layouts. Their chemical resistance makes them suitable for demanding environments such as biological and chemical laboratories. Combined with high-efficiency ventilation systems, color steel effectively controls airflow, ensuring a safe experimental environment.

3. Antimicrobial and Mold-Resistant Properties

Antimicrobial coatings can be applied to color steel surfaces to inhibit the growth of common pathogens such as E. coli and Staphylococcus aureus, making it particularly suitable for high-hygiene areas like ICU wards and pharmacies.

4. Rapid Construction and Modular Design

Prefabricated modular designs allow for quick on-site assembly, significantly reducing construction timelines. For example, a new operating room project at a top-tier hospital was completed in just 20 days using color steel wall and ceiling systems, saving 50% time compared to traditional materials.

Case Study
