Hapichem, constructed of a chemical resistant material (CHEM) with a high protection factor (PF>50 000), offers a reliable barrier against high potency pharmaceutical ingredients (HAPI) and is ATEX-certified to meet European Union requirements for use of protective clothing in explosive atmospheres.
When respiratory, body, antistatic and chemical protection are required, workers would normally need to wear three different items: ventilated hood; a high chemical resistance, non-ventilated suit; and antistatic overshoes. Hapichem offers this combined protection in a single piece of personal protective equipment, saving costs while also ensuring the highest level of protection. This halogen-free suit can also be incinerated after use.
The single-use clothing is fully compliant with the latest EN 14605/A1: 2009 (protective clothing for use against liquid chemicals), EN 1073-1: 1998 (protective clothing against radioactive contamination) and EN 1149-5: 2008: Antistatic (electrostatic protection when correctly earthed) standards.
