#SEMICONWest brought together leaders in the semiconductor industry. We captured the four major takeaways from the event and are sharing them in our latest blog post.

🔍 Dive into the success story of an industry-leading semiconductor player! When faced with the challenge of renovating a decommissioned building into a state-of-the-art cleanroom, they turned to Offsite Manufacturing (OSM) for solutions. 🏢 With a goal of maintaining an 18-month timeframe and staying within budget parameters, leveraging OSM was a game-changer. The facility underwent a complete overhaul, incorporating cleanroom ceiling design concepts using multiple types of offsite assembled grids and plenums. 💡 Discover how OSM saved time, reduced labor costs, and ensured project success in our latest case study: https://lnkd.in/dfYtSYSk

🏗️ Traditional cleanroom construction is labor-intensive and prone to delays, precision issues, and environmental impact. But with the rise of Offsite Manufacturing (OSM), the game is changing. Discover how OSM streamlines production, ensures precision engineering, and promotes sustainability in cleanroom construction:

Elevating Cleanroom Design with Partner Expertise 🏗️💡 Designing a cleanroom demands seamless collaboration between architects, manufacturers, and mechanical and electrical disciplines, especially in light of initiatives like the CHIPS Act. Partnering with manufacturers well-versed in BIM tools, backed by a team of engineers trained to implement solutions, becomes paramount. This guarantees refined designs that seamlessly integrate into the space, ensuring projects stay on time and within budget amidst the evolving semiconductor landscape. In the realm of constructing cleanroom ceiling grids, two prevailing methods—modular and stick-built—each offer distinct advantages: Modular Ceiling Grids: 🚀 Faster Installation: Ready-to-install modules streamline construction timelines, reducing downtime. 📏 Precision and Consistency: Factory-made components ensure heightened precision and consistency. 🛠️ Customized Components: Standardized systems offer flexibility for meeting specific requirements. 💰 Cost-Efficiency: Simplified installation translates to cost savings, aligning with budgetary considerations. Stick-Built Ceiling Grids: 🎨 Flexibility in Design: Greater adaptability for accommodating unique configurations and retrofitting needs. 🔩 Hybrid Construction Model: Bolted assembly allows for flexible construction and delivery approaches. 💸 Cost Considerations: While offering lower overall costs, the installation process tends to be more labor-intensive. Navigating between these methods requires a keen understanding of project requirements and future industry shifts. With the CHIPS Act driving industry growth, it's crucial to partner with manufacturers offering both modular and stick-built solutions, providing flexibility and expertise.

#SEMICONWest 2024 is in the books! An incredible event filled with thought leadership, collaboration and networking. We had several great discussions with many people about their #cleanroom needs and how our Nortek team can help. Looking forward to more future engagement. Bo.Coffman@Nortek.com

The gap in skilled labor in cleanroom construction has been a hot topic. We asked attendees at #SEMICONWest if they are faced with this labor gap and more than half said they are navigating this challenge. With the passing of the CHIPS Act, the skilled labor gap in manufacturing and construction will continue to be strained. That's why our team is continuosly innovating our cleanroom solutions and processes. Stop by our booth to learn more about how we are leveraging offsite manufacturing to address the skilled labor gap and ensure that cleanroom construction stays on track when it comes to our ceiling grids and air handlers.
