Frequently Asked Questions
Pharmaceutical cleanrooms require seamless, non-porous flooring that resists chemical attack, prevents microbial growth, and supports strict contamination control protocols required under cGMP and FDA guidelines. Stonclad GS flooring system, complete with coatings and sealers, provides a seamless, non-porous surface explicitly compliant with cGMP standards, and can be paired with hygienic coved curbs to create a continuous floor-to-wall transition that eliminates contamination points. For static-sensitive cleanroom environments, Stonlux ESD dissipates static charges that can make fine powders airborne, reducing cross-contamination risk and supporting GMP compliance.
Pharmaceutical processing floors must withstand constant exposure to water, cleaning agents, and chemicals while remaining hygienic, impact-resistant, and easy to maintain. Stonclad GS is a heavy-duty, chemical- and impact-resistant system widely used in processing areas and central spine corridors where materials movement and heavy traffic demand long-term durability. For fill suites and other wet environments, Stonshield HRI adds ultra-high slip resistance to reduce the risk of falls from water, cleaning agents, and product spills.
Biosafety-level laboratories, especially BSL-3 and BSL-4, require floor and wall systems that are seamless, non-porous, and capable of withstanding rigorous cleaning and decontamination protocols. Surfaces must resist harsh disinfectants, eliminate joints where contaminants can accumulate, and support validated cleaning procedures.
Stonlux flooring, integrated with a Stonglaze wall and ceiling coating creates a monolithic floor-to-wall system specifically suited for these demanding environments. The seamless transition from floor to wall eliminates vulnerable joints, creating a smooth, impervious containment envelope that is easy to clean and disinfect. Together, the systems provide exceptional chemical resistance, durability, and long-term performance while supporting GMP, cleanroom, and biosafety requirements.
Autoclave areas are subjected to repeated high-temperature steam sterilization cycles that cause significant thermal shock and cycling, which can crack or delaminate standard flooring. Stontec TRF is specifically designed for autoclave environments, offering thermal shock resistance, chemical durability, and a seamless, hygienic surface that withstands high temperatures, moisture, and harsh disinfectants. It also provides slip resistance and compliance with GMP and FDA cleanroom standards, making it a versatile choice for sterilization-adjacent spaces. For equal protection with more texture, Stonhard offers Stonshield UTS.
Gowning rooms, personnel and material airlocks (PALs and MALs), and clean-dirty locker rooms serve as critical transition spaces between cleanliness classifications. Flooring in these areas should create a seamless, hygienic surface while providing a clear visual demarcation between dirty, controlled, and classified zones. Using contrasting floor colors or finishes helps reinforce personnel flow, gowning procedures, and contamination control protocols.
Stontec TRF provides a seamless, chemical-resistant floor that withstands frequent cleaning and disinfecting while eliminating joints where contaminants can accumulate. For facilities seeking greater design flexibility, Stonblend HDF combines the same hygienic performance with colorful decorative quartz mortar, making it easy to create durable, highly visible transitions between cleanliness zones. Where electrostatic discharge (ESD) protection is required, Stonshield ESD provides static control without compromising cleanability. Together, these systems support GMP compliance, simplify cleaning, and create intuitive transitions between cleanliness classifications.
Pharmaceutical R&D labs handle a broad range of solvents, reagents, and biological agents, requiring flooring with broad chemical resistance and a low-friction surface that supports controlled environment research.
Stontec flooring systems are widely specified in lab environments where both slip resistance and chemical durability are required in high-traffic areas.
Vivarium floors must withstand the daily activities of animals, frequent high-pressure washdowns, and aggressive disinfectants while maintaining a fully hygienic, bacteria-resistant environment. Stontec UTF is a durable, seamless, non-porous floor engineered specifically for vivarium environments, preventing bacterial growth and making sterile maintenance straightforward. Its seamless design eliminates joints and seams where waste, moisture, or pathogens could accumulate.
Chemical containment areas must provide an impermeable barrier against concentrated acids, solvents, and corrosive substances used in pharmaceutical and biotech manufacturing. Stonchem high-performance linings are formulated with highly cross-linked novolac epoxy systems that resist chemical penetration, prevent leaks, and maintain structural integrity under prolonged exposure to aggressive substances. Specialized engineering fabric configurations are available for secondary containment applications requiring superior chemical resistance.
Minimizing downtime in pharmaceutical manufacturing is a critical constraint, as production shutdowns carry significant regulatory and financial consequences. Stonhard offers fast-install formulations — including Stonshield Xpress — that provide a quick turnaround without sacrificing chemical resistance, slip resistance, or wear performance. As a single-source manufacturer and installer, Stonhard manages substrate prep, product selection, installation, and inspection under one point of contact, streamlining the process and reducing scheduling risk in active facilities.
Pharmaceutical cleanrooms and GMP manufacturing facilities require wall systems that are seamless, non-porous, and resistant to repeated cleaning and disinfection. Traditional painted drywall and FRP panels can chip, crack, or develop joints that are difficult to sanitize.
Stonglaze epoxy wall systems create a smooth, durable, chemical-resistant surface that integrates seamlessly with Stonhard flooring and cove base to form a hygienic floor-to-wall system. The result is a cleanable, long-lasting finish that helps support GMP compliance while reducing maintenance and simplifying sanitation.
