Disposable Sleeve Protectors Provide Continual Barrier Protection for the Arms & Wrists

Sometimes in infectious environments, reducing potential exposure to workers does not stop at glove protection. Selecting the right glove is, of course, important, but what happens when that glove doesn't fully protect the rest of the arm? Protective apparel and hand protection PPE are then not enough if a lab employee's wrists are vulnerable. The wrist area is at high-risk of exposure, but this liability can be eliminated with our flexible sleeve protectors.

Enter Disposable Sleeve Protectors  which can be worn over garments as an extra layer of barrier protection, or over bare arms. Arm covers can be worn over street clothes, added as another layer of barrier protection for the wrist and forearm area or be worn over bare skin.

PURPOSE

Sleeve protectors are designed to cover the gap created as a barrier gown's sleeves rise and fall with movement. They serve as a block to chemicals, blood borne pathogens, particles and mold while allowing for and easy fit.

Simply slide the hand and arm through the sleeve's opening. If your technicians are required to wear protective sleeve gear to prevent particulate migration, chemical infiltration, or contact with contaminated material, take you need to take advantage of disposable protective sleeves.
