An active breathing system is for an aseptic overalls arranged to be worn by a user. The system includes an aeration device and a surrounding air inlet, and aseptic overalls for a cleanroom. The aeration device includes a first longitudinal hollow body arranged to receive a ventilator connected to an energy source, an air suctioning tube in fluidic communication with the longitudinal hollow body, and the surrounding air outlet in fluidic communication with the longitudinal hollow body, and arranged to direct surrounding air upwards. The aeration device has an air inlet on the aseptic overalls and arranged to enable passage of the surrounding air on the outside of the aseptic overalls in an inner portion of the aseptic overalls.

A protective garment comprising a hood with a face area, the face area provided with an elastomeric interface having an opening for engaging and demountably sealing a full-face mask or full-face respirator to the hood, the opening having a forehead edge and the chin edge that are both incurvate edges with respect to the center of the opening, and two cheek edges that are excurvate edges with respect to the center of the opening; the opening further having a centerline horizontal dimension between the first and second cheek edges and a centerline vertical dimension between the forehead edge and the chin edge; the centerline horizontal dimension to centerline vertical dimension aspect ratio being 1.5 or greater.

Disclosed is a re-usable an integrated wearable suit (100) including battery powered ventilation for providing protective shield with complete safety from viral and bacterial loads, and a transparent head shield (102), a microphone (116) with dual speakers (118) for peer communication, a microsensor (107) for filter clogging sensing, alarm display device and amplifier connected to re-chargeable battery backup (108), a torso (120) including chain covered with a sealable flap facilitating the opening and closing of the kit, a lower body part (136) extending from mid hip to ankle and shaped for movement comfort of both legs and bending and sitting freedom, a pair of shoes covers (138) with a gripped bottom (140), with earthed anti-static and low voltage safety and a plurality of restricted one way air outlets (142).

This present invention provides a system and device for protecting a wearer from hazardous materials and conditions while still allowing for freedom of movement.

A chemical resistant composite glove that includes a first polymeric layer in the shape of a glove; and a second polymeric layer disposed on the first polymeric layer, and wherein the first polymeric layer is specified for one class of chemical resistance and the second polymeric layer is specified for a second class of chemical resistance, and optionally a third polymeric layer, which may be a thin coating, disposed on at least one of first polymeric layer or the second polymeric layer and is optionally specified for a third class of chemical resistance.

A fire resistant textile material comprising a fire resistant textile material comprising a woven face fabric composed of fibres selected from: meta-aramid, para-aramid, polyamideimide and mixtures thereof; wherein the number of warp face threads, per unit width (cm) is greater than the number of weft threads, per unit length (cm).

Embodiments generally relate to personal protective equipment (PPE) (such as gloves, shoes/boots, hoods, protective clothing, etc.) for industrial applications. More specifically, the invention relates to using magnetic particles (e.g. incorporated within or attached/affixed to the PPE) so that a magnetic scan may be run to determine a change (e.g. decrease) in initial magnetic field signature (MFS) for the PPE). The change in MFS is used to determine end of service life of the PPE (such that the protective equipment should be retired or repaired).

The invention relates to a method for the coating of a textile material, said method comprising the following steps: d) providing a coating composition comprising an aqueous solvent and an organosilicon precursor; e) impregnating the textile material with the coating composition by means of pad finishing; f) drying the impregnated textile material; characterized in that the coating composition contains no polycarboxylic acid or catalyst.

A method and a device connects a partially flexible protective cover (2) sealed against the environment and forming a barrier between a contaminated area (12) and an uncontaminated area, to a partially flexible safety cover (20) by transferring the protective cover (2) out of the contaminated area (12) inverting the protective cover (2) over an opening such that its inside is turned out and then severing it from the safety cover (20) and closing the opening; or transferring the protective cover (2) from the contaminated area (12) by sheathing the protective cover (2) with the safety cover (20) as it is pulled through a passage and subsequently severing of both covers (2, 20) from the safety cover (20) and closing the sheathing; or pulling the protective cover (2) back into the contaminated area (12) and then sealing the ends shut to sever the safety cover (20) by forming a further sealed joint between adjacent film parts.

A breathing system hood assembly that fits over a user's head includes an air impermeable hood having an opening dimensioned to fit over the user's head and an elastically deformable neck seal arranged along at least a portion of the opening. The neck seal includes a region wherein the neck seal is arranged in overlapping relation with itself, whereby the neck seal can expand to fit over a user's head and contract to create a seal with the user's neck.
