Judge: Nigel Lenegan, Managing Director, Energy & Carbon Reduction Solutions
Elis Cleanroom impressed the judge with a deeply detailed and data-driven Life Cycle Assessment (LCA), setting a new benchmark for sustainability submissions.
The company's reusable mops and wipes solution challenges traditional single-use approaches, addressing one of the cleanroom sector’s most resource-intensive practices.
By reducing reliance on highly purified water (including water-for-injection (WFI)), which is itself energy-intensive to produce, the solution offers meaningful environmental and operational benefits.
The judge particularly valued the depth of analysis and the clear demonstration of reduced waste, lower water consumption, and overall lifecycle impact.
This entry highlights how sustainability in cleanrooms can move beyond theory into measurable, actionable change.
