The Dual-Hazard Lab Gown: F739 (Chemical) & F1671 (Viral)
As a lab researcher, your risk profile is unique. You handle not only high-risk biological agents (BSL-3/4) but also a variety of hazardous chemicals, reagents, and fixatives. You need a single gown that can protect you from both. The Medtecs IL-4063WKTP is your solution. It’s an AAMI Level 4 gown (passing ASTM F1671 for viruses) that is also compliant with ASTM F739-12 for liquid chemical permeation. With 63gsm fabric and taped seams, it’s the complete, robust barrier for your lab.
This gown simplifies your PPE protocol by providing a verified barrier against the dual threats of chemical and biological hazards.
Engineered for Total Laboratory Protection
This gown is designed to be the single answer to the complex hazards found in research, pharmaceutical, and pathology labs.
ASTM F739-12: The Chemical Permeation Barrier
Your work with solvents, reagents, or fixatives poses a chemical risk. This gown’s fabric is compliant with ASTM F739-12, the standard for measuring resistance to liquid permeation. This provides a crucial barrier against chemical splashes, giving you time to de-gown safely.
AAMI Level 4 / ASTM F1671: The Viral Barrier
For your work with pathogens (cell cultures, viruses, bacteria), this gown provides the highest level of protection. It is a certified AAMI Level 4 viral barrier, proven to block bacteriophages. This is essential for BSL-3 and other high-risk biological work.
Impervious Construction: 63gsm Fabric & Taped Seams
This dual protection is supported by a robust construction. The heavy-duty 63gsm fabric resists tears and punctures. The 100% heat-sealed taped seams ensure that there are no entry points for either chemicals or microbes, making the entire gown impervious.
