Chemical Suits

Chemical suits as the name suggests are designed to protect workers from chemicals hazardous to human health and are used extensively in laboratories, chemical, petrochemical, oil and gas and mining industries. Chemical suits, particularly the ones used in bio labs and hospitals also provide protection against bacteria, viruses and other microorganisms. Chemical suits unlike other pieces of workwear are highly specialised and sophisticated items. Mostly these suits are available in the form of overalls and sometimes even come with an attached gas mask which allows one to completely seal off the suit. Chemical suits are generally made up of PVC along with nylon or other coating material. Depending on the intended use it’s possible to buy chemical suits with hoods protecting the whole head.
