Cleanroom associations in the DACH region are working more closely together

The cleanroom associations – the ÖRRG (Austrian Cleanroom Society), the DRRI (German Cleanroom Institute) and the SwissCCS (Swiss Contamination Control Society) – are stepping up their cooperation. A cooperation agreement to this effect was signed on 1 June 2026. The aim of the collaboration is to strengthen professional exchange between the associations, make better use of synergies and jointly advance cleanroom technology in Germany, Austria and Switzerland.

Stronger networking within the DACH region

The three associations are committed to fostering networking within the cleanroom industry in their respective countries. In future, this networking is to be expanded beyond national borders. To this end, the associations regularly exchange information on current issues, ongoing projects and relevant developments. There are also plans to publicise each other’s events and make them accessible to members of all three organisations. Joint events in the DACH region will also be explored and launched in future.

Sharing expertise in training and further education
Another focus of the collaboration lies in the area of training and further education. The associations aim to make better use of their shared expertise and link their educational programmes more closely.

Coordination on standards and guidelines

Cooperation is also being intensified in the area of standardisation and guidelines. The associations regularly exchange information on relevant developments. The respective standards delegates are working more closely together and coordinating their efforts on current topics in cleanroom technology.

Working together for cleanroom technology

The presidents of ÖRRG, DRRI and SwissCCS are looking forward to this enhanced collaboration. With this agreement, the three associations are sending a clear signal in favour of stronger professional networking and the joint further development of cleanroom technology in the DACH region.
