Guide to Protective Materials
Here's a brief description of each of the five main materials used in the construction
of our protective apparel.
|
Spunbond Polypropylene
The standard fabric for basic protective apparel; formed by bonding
fibers together to form a single layer of breathable, woven-like
material. Its main advantages are economy and comfort, but it
also provides light fluid protection.
SMS
A three-ply material consisting of one layer of meltblown
polypropylene bonded between two layers of spunbond
polypropylene. Strong, fluid-resistant and breathable, SMS provides
an optimal mix of protection and comfort. Appropriate for
extended wear situations involving low to moderate fluid contact.
SMMS
A four-ply material consisting of two layers of meltblown
polypropylene bonded between two layers of spunbond
polypropylene. Strong, very fluid-resistant and breathable, SMMS
provides an optimal mix of protection and comfort. Appropriate
for moderate fluid contact in extended wear situations.
DuPontT IsolationWearT Medical Fabrics
DuPontTIsolationWearT medical fabric is made with patented
Advanced Composite Technology from soft to the touch and
through advanced material technology provides a splash-resistant
barrier that's breathable. The fabric meets the testing
requirements for AAMI level II protection.
DuPontT Suprel®IsolationWearT is made with patented
Advanced Composite Technology and delivers a high level of
fluid protection without compromising comfort, giving you the
freedom to perform. The fabric meets AAMI level III protection.
Coated Polypropylene
Created when soft, spunbond polypropylene is coated with
a layer of impervious polyethylene. This lightweight material
is ideal for any situation demanding a high level of fluid
protection.
Breathable Laminate
Microporous film bonded to nonwoven material provides
fluid-proof protection and great breathability. This material
is ideal for extended wear conditions where fluid contact is
expected.
