For use in cleanrooms, adequate technical/engineering controls to remove airborne residues is mandatory (e.g. room ventilation or LEV. A minimum ventilation rate of 360/hr is mandatory for cleanrooms where the product is applied.

If the product is applied by wiping, the disinfection must be limited to small area.

When using the product with a mop to disinfect floors or other large surfaces in cleanrooms, additional risk mitigation measures must be considered:

| — | Use of respiratory protective equipment (RPE) providing a protection factor of 10 is mandatory for the professional user and all other personnel within the room. At least a powered air purifying respirator with helmet/hood/mask (TH1/TM1), or a half/full mask with combination filter gas/P2 is required (filter type (code letter, colour) to be specified by the authorisation holder within the product information). |
