Today a growing proportion of high precision optical applications pose increased cleaning requirements on the production environment - be they individual components with particularly demanding surfaces or assembly of high performance optical systems.

Dr Aris Kouris - Sales Manager at Optical Surfaces Ltd commented 'Customer desire to push the limits of optical performance has been a key driver in this investment. The new clean room facility will allow us to eliminate airborne contaminants from our final assembly and inspection area - thereby guaranteeing the highest quality product is delivered to our customers'.
