Data centre contamination is one of the biggest risks to IT performance, reliability, and hardware lifespan.

Maintaining ISO 14644-1 Class 8 cleanliness in your white space isn’t just best practice — it’s a business necessity. IT Cleaning Ltd ISO Class 8 check list.

Why ISO 14644 Class 8 Matters
Dust and debris directly affect IT hardware reliability.
The IEEE warns that contamination can cause:
- Overheating and increased energy use
- Electrical shorts and component failure
- Mechanical wear on fans and drives
The Uptime Institute reports that dirty components can increase energy consumption by up to 20 %. Regular, professional cleaning not only reduces downtime — it also extends the life of expensive IT assets.
“Contamination has been the indirect cause of more IT downtime than all the fires, floods, hurricanes, earthquakes, and disgruntled employees combined.”
