Tacky Rollers are designed to remove particulate from flat and slightly textured surfaces within the cleanroom including floors, ceilings, and walls.
A tacky roller is exactly like a lint roller but looks more like a paint roller. Instead of rolling paint onto the wall, the rolling part features sticky polyethylene film sheets. When the tacky film is rolled over a surface, it grabs any loose matter, creating a particle free surface.
Once the sheet is contaminated and no-longer tacky, it’s time to tear it off and expose a new layer.
It’s a quick, clean, and cost-effective way to remove difficult particles from flat surfaces such as walls, tables, and windows.
Sticky rollers are composed of polyethylene sheets coated with acrylic-based adhesive, which can be fast, efficient and easy to remove dust and particle.
The standard core diameter sizes are designed to allow maximum effectively clean wide or narrow areas with less frequent sheet disposal.
Particulates are limited by the lifting action of the roller as it passes over the surface.
The adhesive on the tacky film not only removes contaminants but also provides an inhibitor to prevent microbial growth, which makes it suitable even for non-cleanroom use.
