From outer space to the cleanroom
Carbon fiber reinforced plastics were originally developed as lightweight materials for space travel. Their advantages - stability, flexibility and lightness - were quickly discovered for other areas of application. This is how carbon fiber made its way into motor racing... and cleanroom cleaning.
CFRP in cleanroom cleaning
The low weight of the material makes it possible to break up traditional designs and create something new. This is what happened with the carbon fiber mop systems and isolator cleaning tools of the PurMop BLACK® Performance Line. New size, more features and more user-friendliness—carbon fiber makes it possible.

Carbon fiber in sterile areas
Our carbon fiber mop systems have been extensively tested for autoclaving, wipe disinfection and fumigation with hydrogen peroxide. All methods can be used without hesitation as long as the tested conditions are adhered to.
What is carbon fiber actually?
Carbon fiber is made from carbon filaments combined into strands. The structure and orientation of the fibers is responsible for their outstanding mechanical and physical properties. In order to make optimum use of the advantages of carbon fibers, they are embedded in a matrix of resins or thermoplastics. As a binder, the matrix regulates the force transmission between the fibers and distributes loads to surrounding fibers. It also protects against external influences.
