It took eight months to complete the 10,700-square-foot extension of Pfeiffer’s site in Culemborg. On the first floor, new offices were set up for service, service administration and technicians. On the ground floor of the new building, there is a 3,700-square-foot cleanroom divided into three areas: two of ISO Class 7 and one of ISO Class 6. It is primarily used for the maintenance of leak detectors used by major semiconductor customers in microchip production.
“The semiconductor industry is steadily growing and serves many important markets from computer technology to smartphones and the automotive industry. This makes it very important for Pfeiffer. The new cleanroom is excellently suited to meet the stringent requirements of Pfeiffer’s semicon customers,” said Kaya Busch, Co-Owner and Co-CEO, Busch Group.
