1. Product Overview
As a specialized manufacturer of operating room equipment, we understand that contamination control begins the moment personnel enter the clean zone. The CleanFlow™ OR-Grade Shoe Storage Cabinet is designed specifically for surgical suite anterooms, cleanroom changing areas, and laboratory gowning rooms. Its purpose is to provide a hygienic, organized, and contamination-free environment for storing footwear—whether it is personal shoes exchanged for cleanroom clogs or dedicated surgical footwear. By isolating street shoes from the clean area, this cabinet helps prevent the introduction of particulate and microbiological contaminants carried on shoe soles, supporting rigorous infection prevention protocols.
2. Surgical-Grade Construction
The cabinet is fabricated entirely from 304 stainless steel with a minimum thickness of 1.2 mm, ensuring exceptional durability and resistance to corrosion from cleaning agents and disinfectants. All surfaces feature a matte, anti-reflective finish that minimizes glare and fingerprints, maintaining a professional appearance in high-visibility areas.
Construction follows operating room equipment standards: all joints are fully welded and ground smooth, eliminating crevices where dirt and bacteria could accumulate. Radiused corners (minimum 10 mm) are used throughout to facilitate thorough cleaning and disinfection. The cabinet base is elevated with adjustable leveling feet to allow for complete floor cleaning underneath, preventing hidden debris accumulation.
3. Integrated Air Filtration System
To prevent the buildup of odors and airborne contaminants inside the cabinet, the CleanFlow™ series offers an optional HEPA‑filtered ventilation system. A quiet, energy‑efficient fan continuously draws air from the cabinet interior through a pre‑filter and a HEPA H14 filter (99.995% efficiency at 0.3 microns), then exhausts clean air back into the room or into a dedicated exhaust duct. This negative pressure inside the cabinet ensures that any particles released from shoes are captured and filtered, not released into the changing area. The system can be set to operate continuously or on an intermittent timer.
4. Ergonomic Design and Storage Capacity
The cabinet is designed for ease of use in busy surgical environments. Each shelf is angled slightly downward toward the back to prevent shoes from falling out when the door is opened. Shelves are perforated or slotted to allow air circulation and drainage of any moisture from wet shoes. Standard configurations offer:
-
Individual compartments for personal shoe storage, each sized to accommodate a pair of adult shoes.
-
Open shelving for cleanroom clogs or booties, allowing quick grab‑and‑go access.
-
Pull‑out wire baskets for high‑volume storage in larger changing rooms.
Typical capacities range from 12 to 36 pairs depending on cabinet size. Custom dimensions are available to fit specific space requirements.
5. Hygienic Door Mechanism
Cabinet doors are fitted with self‑closing hinges and magnetic or mechanical latches to ensure they remain tightly sealed when not in use. Full‑length door pulls are designed for operation with gloved hands, and doors can be specified with viewing windows of tempered safety glass to allow quick visual identification of contents. For maximum hygiene, doors are available with touchless foot‑operated openers or motion sensors, eliminating the need to touch handles with potentially contaminated hands.
6. Optional Accessories and Customization

-
Ultraviolet disinfection lamps installed inside each compartment for timed sterilization cycles between uses.
