Tyvek QC Physical and Chemical Information
Rugged Splash Protection
Tyvek® QC sealed seam garments provide excellent splash protection against chemicals like pesticides. They're made with rugged Tyvek® by DuPont that's been "quality coated" with 1.25 mils of polyethylene, providing garments that meet Level B standards. Inorganic acids and alkalies can't get through either. These quality garments are reliable and economical safety measures for workers engaged in chemical cleanups or operating in industrial labs.
Tyvek QC Polycoated Garments Ideal for Chemical Cleanups
Our full line of "quality coated" polyethylene Tyvek® garments is a preference in the chemical industry for potential lightweight splash situations. Our entire collection of sealed seam garments -- encapsulated suits, coveralls, shirts, pants, hoods, boots, aprons and sleeves -- provide Level B protection to your workers against accidental spills, sprays and splashes of acids, bases, and other liquid chemicals such as pesticides. You'll recruit high-visibility yellow Tyvek® QC garments for use in chemical cleanups, and around industrial sites where liquid chemicals may pose a hazardous splash threat. Tyvek® QC garments are available in grey, also.
