FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
July 30, 2025

Dallas, Texas — The Cleanroom Center proudly announces Mecart Cleanrooms as its first Founding Partner, solidifying a strategic partnership that underscores the mission and momentum behind this first-of-its-kind facility.

Mecart, a North American leader in modular cleanroom design and manufacturing, is known for its high-performance systems, turnkey execution, and deep experience across industries such as biopharma, radiopharma, compounding, cell and gene, medtech, semiconductor, and advanced manufacturing. Their decision to join The Cleanroom Center as its inaugural partner speaks volumes — about both Mecart’s leadership in the market and the value they see in bringing cleanroom solutions closer to the decision-making process.

“Mecart is the perfect foundation partner. Having them as our inaugural partner not only validates the mission of The Cleanroom Center, it sets the tone for what this facility represents: quality, credibility, and innovation,” said Jeremy Witkins, Founder of The Cleanroom Center. “They represent everything we want this space to offer — technical excellence, integrity, and a genuine focus on helping clients build smarter. For clients touring the showroom, seeing Mecart’s system in person builds immediate confidence in their solution.”

The Cleanroom Center, opening this fall next to Pegasus Park in Dallas, is a vendor-neutral showroom where multiple manufacturers will display full-scale cleanroom systems. The space is designed to help clients explore real-world cleanroom environments and make informed purchasing decisions based on function, cost, and schedule – all in one visit.

With Dallas offering one of the most connected and accessible travel hubs in the country, The Cleanroom Center allows project stakeholders to see a range of systems and meet with cleanroom experts in a single day – a game-changer for companies evaluating their options nationwide. 

“We’re incredibly excited to be a founding partner for The Cleanroom Center. This innovative showroom offers our U.S. Clients a fantastic opportunity to experience Mecart’s advanced cleanroom technology firsthand, including our self-supported walkable ceilings and flush integrated low air returns, right here in Dallas. It’s a game-changer for businesses seeking high performance modular solutions and strategically bridges the gap between our Greenville, SC factory and the growing demand across the central and western parts of the country,” said Lisa Larocque, U.S. Sales Director at Mecart. 

“We are looking forward to a long-standing relationship with The Cleanroom Center. A strategic collaboration leads to a greater impact on the success of our business as well as our customers. At Mecart, it's about making top-tier cleanroom technology more accessible and responsive to the evolving needs of the market," said Jerome Jobin, VP at Mecart. "We are focused on empowering companies with the precise, reliable environments essential for accelerating their critical research, development, and manufacturing, ultimately supporting their continued success and growth.”

Mecart’s presence will allow clients to see their unique system and features — a rare opportunity in an industry where decisions are often made remotely and under pressure.

The Cleanroom Center is already hosting private tours and will celebrate its official grand opening in September 2025. With Dallas quickly becoming a national hub for life sciences and advanced manufacturing, this partnership helps ensure the infrastructure can scale alongside the innovation.
