Let us begin with what is a coverall? As the name suggests coveralls provide safety in various potentially hazardous industries by giving full body protection. They are usually a single piece with a comfortable fit.

Safety of the employees, ensuring hygienic production, and adhering to proper safety regulations is extremely crucial in industries such as the pharmaceutical processing industry, food processing, and manufacturing industry, research and development facilities, industries that manufacture electronic components, cleanrooms, and also automotive manufacturing industry. In these industries, coveralls become an essential work uniform for the employees, as it gives full-body protection to the wearer.

Let us look at the importance of coveralls in the above industries. We will also discuss how Sfatec workwear rental service company provides various coveralls as per the requirement of each industry.

1. Pharmaceutical processing industry

The pharmaceutical industry which has a direct relationship with health care and which is responsible for providing safe drugs to its customers goes through extremely strict regulations when producing and selling drugs. The hygiene and cleanliness of all the staff and the environment are of utmost importance.

Coveralls, for this industry, needs to be designed keeping in mind the safety and the functionality of the work. Any workwear for the pharma processing industry needs to be at par with the International Drug Safety requirement standards. Also as per FDA, all workwear needs to comply with CGMP (Current Good Manufacturing Practice) standards in Laundry and Service centers.

2. Food processing and manufacturing industry

Like the pharma processing industry, the food processing and manufacturing industry goes through highly stringent regulations to ensure that no contamination occurs in the food products. It is also important to ensure that all workwear goes through GMP (Good Manufacturing Practice), GHP (Good Hygiene Practice), and HACCP (Hazard Analysis and Critical Control Points) in the laundry and service center.

Coveralls can make a good food processing uniform as it acts as a complete shield to the body and protects the wearer from diseases that can be caused by bacteria, etc. It also protects food products from getting contaminated by dirt found on the wearer’s clothing.

3. Research and development facilities

Coveralls in research and development facilities can certainly prevent cross-contamination and also give a professional look to the staff.

4. Industries that manufacture electronic components

In these industries, electrostatic discharge or ESD can cause harmful effects, especially when dealing with microchips. This is because static electricity can damage electronic components. The anti-static coverall that can control ESD becomes an essential work uniform in such industries.

5. Cleanrooms

What exactly are cleanrooms? These are artificially controlled environments that are specifically made free of dust, contamination, and other pollutants. Hygiene is the first aspect that comes to mind when we talk about cleanrooms. Biotech, pharmaceutical processing industries, microelectronic industries, and other manufacturing industries use cleanrooms. The workwear used here needs to meet certain cleanroom standards and should be fit for sterilization. It needs to protect the employee from the various hazards while they do their job and also make sure that the employee does not contaminate the cleanroom environment.

Some cleanrooms require a full cover with hood, booties, and mask and some may only require body cover. Although coveralls, in general, is an excellent work uniform for cleanrooms, lint-free coveralls and anti-static coveralls are better.

– Lint-free coveralls for cleanrooms

Lint-free coveralls happen to be an excellent choice when it comes to cleanroom workwear. We may have noticed lint on workwear. If this falls off the garment it can cause contamination in cleanrooms. Such a problem will not arise with lint-free coveralls.

Industrial coverall manufacturers must make sure the workwear complies with safety standards such as molten metal protection pro (ISO 11612), welding protection (ISO 11611), anti-static protection (EN 61340), protection against heat & flame (ISO 11612), and other such risks.
