Description

Amplitude Sigma cleanroom wipers are used for cleaning and spill control in controlled environments. They help maintain cleanliness while reducing contamination risks.

These wipes are made from a hydroentangled blend of polyester and cellulose. This combination provides strong absorbency and reliable durability during use.

The material structure allows the wipes to perform well both wet and dry. They maintain strength while helping trap particles and reduce residue during cleaning.

With low particle and extractable levels, these wipes are suitable for sensitive cleanroom environments. They are commonly used in ISO Class 6 settings and similar controlled areas.

• Routine maintenance cleaning in controlled environments across multiple industries

 
Who This Is For

The Amplitude Sigma is a strong choice for facilities that need a reliable, high-volume general-purpose wiper across a broad range of ISO Class 6 cleanroom applications. The hydroentangled polyester and cellulose blend delivers more absorbency than a standard polypropylene wiper, making it well suited for both routine surface cleaning and spill control without needing to stock separate products for each task. At 3,600 wipers per case, it is one of the higher per-case counts in the wiper lineup, making it a practical and cost-effective option for operations that go through wipers at high volume daily. Its broad industry applicability — from biotech and pharmaceutical to semiconductor and printed circuit board manufacturing — makes it a versatile staple for multi-use cleanroom environments.

FAQ

What does hydroentangled mean?
Hydroentangling is a manufacturing process where high-pressure water jets interlock fibers together without the use of binders or adhesives. The result is a strong, durable nonwoven material that holds together well during use, even when wet, while keeping extractable levels low — which is important in cleanroom applications.

What is the difference between polyester/cellulose and pure polyester wipers?
Pure polyester wipers like the ISO Class 5 lightweight wipers in this store offer a higher cleanliness specification and lower particle generation, making them better suited for the most critical applications. The polyester/cellulose blend in the Amplitude Sigma provides greater absorbency due to the cellulose component, making it a better fit for spill control and general cleaning in ISO Class 6 environments where maximum absorbency is valued alongside cleanliness.

How does the Amplitude Sigma compare to the Amplitude Zeta also in this store?
Both are ISO Class 6 rated nonwoven wipers, but they differ in construction and strengths. The Sigma is a hydroentangled polyester/cellulose blend optimized for high absorbency and versatile general-purpose cleaning across multiple industries. The Zeta is a 3-ply thermally bonded polypropylene/cellulose wiper that offers particularly strong chemical compatibility including acids, and is noted for use as a tray liner and spill mat. The Sigma is the better everyday general-purpose choice; the Zeta is stronger when acid resistance and multi-use versatility are priorities.

Are these wipers non-abrasive?
Yes. The hydroentangled construction creates a soft, non-abrasive surface that is safe for sensitive equipment, instruments, and components that could be scratched or damaged by rougher materials.

What industries are these wipers designed for?
These wipers are designed for general-purpose use across biotech, pharmaceutical, semiconductor, electronics, medical device, and printed circuit board manufacturing environments.

How many wipers come per case?
Each bag contains 300 wipers and each case contains 12 bags, for a total of 3,600 wipers per case.

Can these wipers be used dry and wet?
Yes. The hydroentangled polyester/cellulose blend maintains strength and performance both dry and when saturated with cleaning solutions or solvents, making these wipers effective for a wide range of cleaning tasks.
