SLD Technology Providing the best air delivery performance in a modular contamination control system, allowing for fast, cost-effective installation. installed separately.

SLD Technology, LLC designs and manufactures systems and components that simplify design, speed installation and deliver superior performance in hospitals and other healthcare facilities. Common applications include modular ceiling systems for operating rooms (OR), procedure rooms, exam rooms and pharmacies requiring unidirectional, low turbulence (laminar) airflow for close temperature and humidity control, and airborne contaminant removal. SLD Technology products are based around the concept of a Single Large Diffuser (SLD) delivering a contiguous blanket of laminar airflow to most effectively sweep airborne contaminants away from the surgical site, patient and providers in the OR. Our ability to incorporate integral lighting and structural equipment mounting elements in complete, factory-built modules that are installed as a single piece makes us unique versus suppliers providing Multiple Diffuser Array (MDA) systems built onsite using independent components (diffusers, lighting, structural supports, etc.)

October is Breast Cancer Awareness Month, a time to honor those impacted by breast cancer and recognize the importance of advancing care through thoughtfully designed healthcare spaces.

Designed with patients in mind and built to protect the most vulnerable.

At Huntsman Cancer Institute in Salt Lake City, four operating rooms were thoughtfully designed to support a highly controlled, sterile environment, helping reduce contamination risks and support safe, precise surgical care.

AirFRAME®, protects the patient with Zonal Pressure Control®. ZPC delivers a continuous flow of ultra-clean air over the patient and surgical team, helping move airborne contaminants down and away from the surgical site.

Now that's Designed 4 Zero!

Healthcare construction in California is notoriously complex, governed by HCAI regulations—the absolute toughest, most stringent building codes in the nation. To ensure hospitals can survive and stay fully operational during major earthquakes, every single pipe, wall, and wire must meet uncompromising seismic standards.

Traditionally, this meant years of painstaking on-site work and lengthy inspection bottlenecks. By leveraging modular and prefabricated construction, we are moving the most complex part of healthcare design, the OR Ceiling, off the job site and into controlled factory settings. This allows us to manufacture highly precise, HCAI-compliant spaces simultaneously while foundation work happens on-site.

SLD Technology is proud to support innovative healthcare environments. AirFRAME® was installed at both University of California’s UC Davis and UCI Health, each receiving a 2026 Design-Build Institute of America (DBIA) Merit Award! These projects are great examples of the power of prefabrication in healthcare design.

Healthcare design trends are rapidly evolving to support the massive growth of Ambulatory Surgery Centers (ASCs) as procedures shift away from traditional hospitals. ASCs are cost-efficient, specialized, patient-centered outpatient facilities. They offer a lower risk of infection and healthcare-related harm compared to traditional hospitals due to their healthier patient baseline and same-day discharge models.

At SLD Technology our mission is to eliminate healthcare harm and enhance patient and staff safety. AirFRAME® is a fully integrated, modular, prefabricated solution designed specifically for operating rooms. Our ceilings integrate the structural, air diffusion, and lighting requirements of an operating room into a single system.

AirFRAME®, protects the patient with Zonal Pressure Control®. ZPC delivers a continuous flow of ultra-clean air over the patient and surgical team, helping move airborne contaminants down and away from the surgical site.

BEST-IN-CLASS AIRFLOW PERFORMANCE
Our operating room ceilings serve as one seamless large diffuser, delivering a uniform laminar blanket of airflow that sweeps contaminants away from the sterile field. Equipped with Zonal Pressure Control® (ZPC), AirFRAME exceeds ASHRAE guidelines and significantly reduces environmental contamination. Combining factory integration, fewer connection points, and easy test-and-balance functionality, SLD’s modular design outpaces traditional systems in both performance and reliability.

Our fully integrated systems are factory-manufactured and arrive ready to install. This ensures consistency across all of your operating rooms; something stick-built or partially integrated solutions aspire to but simply can’t guarantee.

From first sketch to final install, we build more than ceiling systems- we build trust. With over 70% of the nation’s best hospitals relying on AirFRAME, SLD is the name behind cleaner, safer operating rooms that get online faster and generate revenue sooner.

Installation in hours – AirFRAME requires as few as one electrical connection, one supply air, and two threaded drops per module. Having fewer trades on site reduces the general conditions required for access and safety. This simplifies the installation process, minimizes overhead expenses, and streamlines your project schedule, saving both time and money.

SLD Technology unites clean‑air science, structural engineering, and LED illumination into integrated modules that simplify the most complex room in a hospital—the operating room.

AirFRAME is a fully integrated, modular, prefabricated solution designed specifically for healthcare environments. Comprised of factory‑built modules that combine unidirectional airflow, LED lighting, boom support, and structural support into a single integrated assembly.

Why Prefabrication with AirFRAME Matters:
✔ Front-loaded coordination of all ceiling trades and vendors
✔ Pre-engineered MEP performance for efficiency and reliability
✔ Factory quality modules assembled in a controlled environment
✔ Reduced risk in general conditions
✔ Compressed construction timeline for faster project completion
✔ Single-source responsibility minimizes risk and condenses the submittal process
✔ Minimized site conflicts and change orders
