Case Study: ProPart Modular’s Solution For Altered Image’s New Facility

For the past 24 years, Altered Image has provided fast, quality clothing alterations to more than 30,000 happy customers. Eric Sana, owner of Altered Image, opened his first storefront in 1996 and grew his company over the next two decades to 13 more locations in and around the Greater Toronto Area. When the COVID-19 pandemic began sweeping through Canada, Altered Image began looking for a way to help fellow Canadians by providing personal protective equipment (PPE).

Mr. Sana turned to ProPart Modular to build a new 1,500 square foot clean room where he and his team could manufacture medical grade masks along with a change room where the employees could change into protective clothing. ProPart Modular’s experienced team worked quickly and efficiently and completed the construction with time to spare. Altered Image’s new clean room is certified to ISO Class 7 utilizing HEPA filtration technology to maintain air cleanliness.

Propart Modular’s System 40™  offers versatility with nearly unlimited options for commercial and industrial construction. Controlled Environments designed by ProPart Modular can be loaded with accessories such as air lock entry systems, HEPA filtration and special lighting  packages. Not only is it customizable but this “plug-and-play” system is clean and easy to install, providing 40% faster completion rates than traditional construction while kicking up less dust. 

Mr. Sana appreciated the speed at which ProPart Modular was able to finish the construction as timing was critical to meeting Canada’s growing demand for PPE. With more than 40 years of experience, ProPart Modular is at the forefront of custom clean room installations and prides itself on doing custom work the competition can’t. 

Being Ontario Made certified in late 2020, ProPart Modular recognizes the value of helping Ontario’s manufacturing sector grow. This sentiment is not lost on Altered Image, who sees three important reasons to keep manufacturing local: job creation, reduction of transportation costs, and a smaller carbon footprint. There is a growing focus on businesses aligning themselves with environmental responsibility and ProPart Modular takes pride in being eco-friendly leaders in North America.
