Re-cyclex
Surgical Gowns have been developed over a three year period with the latest
state of the art technology to offer the most advanced protective gear for
the heath workers. |
Traditionally, surgeons gowns were constructed from cotton.
Researchers noted that bacteria could easily pass from patient to the health
worker.
A practical comfortable barrier fabric was required
Today Re-cyclex has the answer
A woven barrier fabric containing polyester microfiber, finished with
suitable physical and chemical finishes to provide the balance between
comfort and performance.
Fluid Barrier
The Re-cyclex fabric is treated to repel fluids. Fluid strike through
may be measured in terms of water pressure, expressed as a water column
height in millimeters. The Re-cyclex fabric exhibits typical values of
greater than 250mm mercury pressure.
Anti-microbial Finish
Re-cyclex is treated with an advanced broad-spectrum anti-microbial.
This is a permanent non-leaching treatment, making it user and
environmentally friendly. Treatment actively inhibits the growth of
bacteria, fungi and yeasts. Provides for hygienic freshness. Prevents
deterioration and discolouration.
Lint-Free
Re-cyclex™ gowns are made from continuous filaments, which prevent
linting. Spun yarns are formed by twisting together short fibres creating a
hairy appearance. These short fibres are called linters and can come free
during wearing, potentially causing infections.
Re-cyclex gowns are lint- free.
Breathability
Traditional cotton are virtually porous and polyethylene films and
rubber-coated textiles are not breathable.
Breathability is measured by the airflow of the fabric at a set pressure.
The re-cyclex barrier fabric offers the best of both worlds: it has porosity
and sufficient breathability to ensure maximum comfort.
