GENERAL INFORMATIONS
ON PROTECTIVE
CLOTHING
All our garments are available in Opaque Fusion®, Opaque Action® and Opaque Lead® collections. The collections differ from each other in the use of protective shielding materials, weight and price. The outer and inner materials and design are the same for all the collections.
Material
The outer material is easy to wash with common washing, disinfecting and cleaning agents. The inner material is antiallergic and it has anti-odor qualities. The inner and outer materials provide a quick-drying finish, resistance to moisture and dirt.
Our top collection the Opaque Fusion®, is made of two-layers of lead-free materials and meets the strictest criteria for weight and protection. The Opaque Fusion® is the ideal choice for healthcare professionals who work during the long sessions with ionizing radiation. Thanks to its fully lead-free composition it is environmentally friendly.
The lead-based Opaque Action® collection is still one of the lightest two layers protective materials on the market.
