The DuPont Tyvek 500 Xpert is a hooded protective coverall that balances protection, strength and comfort. It is rated Category III, Type 5-B and 6-B. As a result, it is a trusted choice for pharmaceutical, chemical and maintenance work.
Why choose Tyvek 500 Xpert?
Fine dust and light sprays can reach the skin through weak fabrics and seams. For this reason, this coverall is made from Tyvek, a flash-spun, high-density polyethylene. It blocks airborne solid particles and light liquid aerosols down to 1.0 micron.
The external seams are serged, which helps keep inward leakage very low. In addition, a storm flap covers the zip for better protection against liquid spray. The suit is also certified to EN 14126 for protection against infective agents. It also meets EN 1149-5 for antistatic safety on both sides.
