What is ISO vs Class Clean Room Standards?

ISO cleaning standards were developed by the International Organization for Standardization they are a non-governmental organization designed to bring measurement standards to the world. Cleanroom classification numbers refer to the federal standard. While sometimes still referred to in older documents the federal class system was officially retired and superseded by the ISO standard in 2001.
