SMS and SSMMS Materials
The Spunbond/Meltblown/Spunbond process produces media suitable
for use in various applications. This media structure allows airflow while
filtering various size particulates. Superior grab, tear and burst strengths
are properties of this cost effective fabric. Surgical gowns are manufactured
to the highest quality technique to ensure patient and staff protection. Not
only is the fabric impervious, but also the main seams on the sleeves are tailored
with a unique seal on the sleeves and cuffs to eliminate the gaps that can
occur with other sealing methods, providing impervious protection.
All materials used are compatible with infection control issues including barrier properties, effective protection against occupational exposure to blood and body fluids, able to meet aseptic handling qualities and professional standards.
