ProVent Plus – Coveralls – PPH433

The ProVent Plus – Coveralls – PPH433 is part of a range of products from general biohazard protection to certified apparel for CDC guidelines.

ProVent Plus provides high-performance, breathable protection for a wide range of healthcare and emergency response situations. The ProVent Plus line ranges from lab coats and gowns to the NFPA 1999 certified garment which meets CDC/OSHA guidelines for protection against Ebola infected body fluids and other biohazards.

ProVent Plus PPH439-99 — Certified Protection For CDC Guidelines

ProVent Plus is the only economically priced single-use garment certified to NFPA 1999, while also meeting OSHA and CDC guidelines for biohazard exposure. The use-and-dispose distinction of ProVent Plus means emergency responders and healthcare workers faced with infected body fluids and other biohazards can achieve proven protection at a much lower cost than reusable garments.

In addition to passing the ASTM F1671 blood and viral penetration tests, ProVent Plus is a microporous fabric that offers increased comfort due to its high moisture vapor transmission rate (MVTR). The demanding NFPA 1999 certification covers use as part of a system of components with other protective equipment including respiratory, eye and face protection, examination gloves, boot/shoe covers and over aprons. ProVent Plus meets OSHA and CDC guidelines as part of such a protective system.

OSHA and the CDC have issued a comprehensive PPE guidance document for workers who may be exposed to potentially infected blood and body fluids. Details include:

• The guidance is in a matrix format and identifies the type and level of PPE performance.
• It includes protective gowns and coveralls, described as fluid resistant or impermeable.
• Fluid resistant garments are specified where the risk of exposure to blood and body fluids is low. Fluid resistant garments are defined as those with fabrics and seams that meet certain industry standards for liquid repellency.
• Impermeable garments are specified for scenarios with high exposure risk. Impermeable garment definition references industry standards and test methods for blood and viral penetration resistance under pressure.
• Protection is achieved by a system of components. In addition to protective apparel, a proper system includes respiratory protection consistent with OSHA 29 CFR 1910.134, plus eye and face protection, examination gloves, boot/shoe covers and over aprons.
