Protect Your Research. Protect Yourself.
In a laboratory environment, protection is a two-way street. You need to protect your samples from contamination (like lint and particles from your clothes), and you need to protect yourself from specimen splashes and chemical sprays. The Medtecs IL-2025YTU is an AAMI Level 2 gown that excels at both, making it an ideal choice for research and clinical labs.
The Problem: Particulates and Splashes
Standard cotton lab coats are not fluid-resistant and can shed fibers, compromising your work. Conversely, many disposable gowns are simple-stitched, which can be a weak point for fluid penetration and also shed fibers. You need a barrier that is clean, durable, and fluid-resistant.
The Solution: Low-Linting SMMS with Ultrasonic Seams
The IL-2025YTU addresses both lab-specific pain points. The 100% 4-ply SMMS fabric is inherently low-linting, helping to maintain the integrity of your environment. Furthermore, it’s engineered with specific features for superior protection.
- AAMI Level 2 Fluid Barrier: Certified to AATCC 42 & 127, this gown reliably resists the splashes and sprays common in lab work.
- Ultrasonic Seams: This is a critical feature for labs. Instead of needle holes, seams are ultrasonically bonded. This creates a stronger, cleaner seam that reduces particle shedding and eliminates a common point of fluid failure.
- Thumb Loops: Secure the sleeves under your gloves, ensuring full wrist protection when handling samples or pipetting.
This combination of features ensures you are compliant with safety protocols while minimizing your impact on your sensitive work.
A Gown Designed for Lab Workflows
This isn’t just a medical gown; it’s a gown that understands the lab. Its design balances protection with the comfort and mobility you need for detailed tasks.
Why AAMI Level 2 is Right for Your Lab
AAMI Level 2 is the appropriate standard for procedures like specimen handling, reagent preparation, and analysis where the risk of splashes is low to moderate. It provides a tested, compliant barrier you can trust.
Lightweight 25gsm Fabric
Lab work often involves long periods of standing and focused activity. At only 25gsm, this gown is lightweight and breathable, preventing overheating and maintaining your comfort and focus.
Full Coverage Design
The over-the-head design with waist tie provides full front and back protection, ensuring you are covered from every angle as you move around the lab.
