Astro Pak is the trusted leader in precision cleaning and passivation for mission-critical industries such as semiconductor, aerospace, data centers, and defense. Founded during the space race in 1959, Astro Pak has spent over six and a half decades perfecting its processes to support the most demanding applications, consistently meeting or exceeding the rigorous specifications of organizations like NASA, JPL, Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory, and Cal-Tech. With a nationwide presence, Astro Pak’s advanced cleanroom services, extensive library of approved procedures, and comprehensive QMS- and cGMP-compliant certification packages provide customers across public and private sectors with confidence in the quality, traceability, and reliability of every project.
Pak’s coast-to-coast Cleanroom Services facilities feature ISO 14644-1 certified Class 5, 6, and 7 cleanrooms and labs in a variety of sizes and configurations, supporting a full spectrum of precision cleaning processes such as ultrasonic, high-pressure spray, flush, aqueous, solvent, and manual wipe cleaning. These highly controlled environments also enable advanced services including pressure and cold shock testing, clean assembly, vacuum-sealed packaging, and cleanliness verification analyses like particle count, total filterable solids (TFS), and non-volatile residue (NVR). All cleanroom locations maintain AS9100 certified Quality Management Systems for strict industry compliance, with specialized capabilities at facilities such as Downey, CA which houses a large component cleanroom with a 2,500 psi spray system and two-ton overhead crane and Titusville, FL, which features an indoor 70-foot vertical tower for processing convoluted hoses.
A key differentiator for Astro Pak is our Technical Services Group (TSG), a dedicated team of subject matter experts and researchers who drive innovation in chemical cleaning, passivation, and material compatibility. Located at Astro Pak’s Space Coast cleanroom facility, the TSG leverages advanced lab resources and analytical tools to develop industry-leading processes, support ongoing R&D, and provide real-time consultancy for complex projects. Working closely with the Engineering Services Group (ESG), which offers expert consultation on system and facility design, flow path optimization, and maintenance strategies, Astro Pak delivers tailored solutions for high-purity gas, cryogenic, fuel, hydraulic, vacuum, and hydronic systems. By engaging these groups early in the design phase or during challenging operational scenarios, clients benefit from risk reduction, operational efficiency, and long-term reliability. This collaborative, expertise-driven approach-combined with rigorous quality management and decades of experience makes Astro Pak the preferred partner for organizations with mission-critical operations that demand uncompromising standards.
