Lightweight coverall
Alpha Solway has enhanced its Alphashield range of lightweight Type 5/6 coveralls with the launch of its 2200 – featuring fully bound seams.
Providing head to ankle protection against a range of particulate hazards and light liquid splashes, the new Alphashield 2200 is suitable for workers across a range of industry sectors including pharmaceutical and electronic manufacturing, bodyshop, paint spraying, resin and fibreglass applications through to environmental and crime scene investigation applications.
Manufactured from a microporous polyethylene laminate, the key to the 2200’s performance is said to lie in the strength of its fully bound seams, which deliver greater strength and protection by overlaying two sections of material with an outer binding before being tightly chain stitched through all the layers.
With the seams of the 2200 bound in this way, the result is a strong, protective and lightweight limited life coverall which, combined with the Alphashield material, provides enhanced durability.
EN ISO tests carried out on the 2200 have proven it to be one of the strongest for seam strength.
