Frequently asked questions

Answers to the most common questions about PSCT, cleanrooms, membership, trainings and cooperation with ICCCS.

What is the Polish Society of Clean Technologies (PSCT)?

PSCT (Polskie Stowarzyszenie Czystych Technologii) is a Warsaw-based society that brings together people working in cleanrooms and those interested in cleanroom technologies: designers, contractors, users, equipment manufacturers and scientists.

What is a cleanroom?

A cleanroom is a room or a group of rooms with a controlled environment – including airborne particle concentration, microbiological cleanliness, humidity and electrostatic control – together with equipment and people, used for research, analytical or production processes. Most such facilities are designed in accordance with ISO 14644.

Is PSCT a member of ICCCS?

Yes. PSCT represents Poland in ICCCS – the International Confederation of Contamination Control Societies, an international confederation of national societies dealing with contamination control and cleanroom technology, founded in 1972 in Switzerland.

What cleanroom trainings are available?

The training programmes cover five areas: setting up and operating a cleanroom facility, working in a clean environment, measurements and process control, maintaining the cleanliness class, and disinfection and ozonation. Trainings follow ICCCS guidelines and lead to certification (CCO, CCS, MCO, MCA).

Who can join PSCT?

Representatives of industry and science as well as anyone interested in new technologies – from sectors such as pharmaceuticals, electronics, chemicals, space, food and automotive. The statute provides for ordinary, supporting and honorary members.

What are the benefits of PSCT membership?

Members receive support for research projects, access to information and scientific materials, a shared network of contacts, free participation in the Society’s trainings and conferences, and special prices within the “Clean Science” and “Clean Industry” initiatives.

Can universities and student clubs cooperate with PSCT?

Yes. The Society delivers lectures and trainings for students (e.g. at the Lublin University of Technology for the SEMICON Student Scientific Club) and supports research projects of technical universities and student clubs.
